If it does not work for me, I will bequeath it to my daughter, who will make 3 trillion bazillion dollars off it in 2050. :DSharon Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01191311844605595675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152532055090335650.post-90516968682988540542018-08-13T06:29:40.329+01:002018-08-13T06:29:40.329+01:00Sorry you didn't like it.

The game is now quite rare and fetches a high price on eBay. You would make a profit if you sold it, which is what I would recommend if it isn't your taste.Badwitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10548605170878666546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152532055090335650.post-20148339090995396112018-08-12T22:41:40.828+01:002018-08-12T22:41:40.828+01:00I was SO excited to get this.

We could barely get past page 4 in the instructions. After you have picked a character, taken all the cards apart, figured out what to do with your tokens, then you have to stand on one foot with your tongue in the right side of your mouth (just made that part up) before you can even roll the dice. Incredibly complex and not in the least intuitive. <br /><br />Very disappointed. It is gathering dust on the shelf right now. <br /><br />Next time I have three days to spare, maybe I will open the box again. I had huge expectation and was thrilled, only to be very disappointed :( I am glad that you liked it. <br /><br />Oh well, we all got to drink the wine after, so it was not a complete write off of an evening.
