Sword & Sorcery review

Sword & Sorcery is a game that I’ve been eager to try for a while now, and after finally getting my hands on it, I'm hooked. It's a cooperative dungeon crawler that pits you and your fellow players against the forces of evil in a story-driven campaign. You control heroes, each with unique skills and abilities, that grow stronger as you progress through the game.

The game system is very intricate, with a lot of rules and options to learn. The rulebook is quite thick, and there are a lot of details to remember, but it’s not insurmountable. The game plays fast and smoothly once you get the hang of it.

The game has a lot of replay value thanks to its randomized monster encounters, character progression system, and multiple story campaigns. It's a great choice for anyone who enjoys dungeon crawlers or tactical board games with a touch of narrative. I'm excited to keep playing and exploring the world of Sword & Sorcery.

There are definitely some drawbacks to be aware of, though. Some reviewers have mentioned issues with bent miniatures, and the rulebook does have a bit of a learning curve. However, the game is still worth checking out if you're looking for a challenging and rewarding dungeon crawler experience. I'd recommend watching some playthrough videos to get a better feel for the game before purchasing it.
