Disney Sorcerer's Arena: Epic Alliances Core Set review

Disney Sorcerer's Arena: Epic Alliances Core Set is a fun and engaging tabletop game that's surprisingly deep for a Disney-themed product. I was initially hesitant, thinking it would be a simple, kid-friendly game, but I was pleasantly surprised. The game has a lot of replayability thanks to the ability to create unique team combinations with the eight included characters.

The game's rulebook is divided into four chapters, gradually introducing players to new skills, upgrades, and abilities. While some reviewers found this approach confusing, I appreciated the gradual learning curve. It made the game more accessible for my family, especially my younger kids.

The game is well-designed, with high-quality components and attractive artwork. I particularly liked the acrylic character standees, although some reviewers had issues with the protective film being difficult to remove.

While the core set only includes eight characters, there are already expansions available, and the publisher has stated that more are on the way. This is a definite plus, as it allows for greater customization and variety in team compositions.

I do agree with some reviewers that the game is not for casual gamers or young children. It requires a fair amount of strategic thinking and understanding of the rules. That said, if you're looking for a fun and challenging tabletop game with a Disney twist, I highly recommend Disney Sorcerer's Arena: Epic Alliances Core Set. It's a great choice for families, friends, and anyone who enjoys a good skirmish game.
