I don't know how to start, but let's go.

I love Talisman. I love boardgames. And I love how with each new expansion the game became more complex and fun. I bought the game along with all expansions and bought some copies to play with my friends. And as someone who played with AI and human players, playing with humans is way way better and funnier. This agme is meant to be played online, with friends.

So, it is with a huge feeling of disappointment that I write this. The online has some flaws that ARE REALLY BAD. I don't know if actually there are many flaws, but a single one, A SINGLE ONE RUINS THE FUN SO HARD.

And it's when a player has to leave mid-game. As I've said, I have all expansions and my friend only the base game. I create a room, as the hoster, and my friend join in and then we play. But if by any chance a player disconnect, chaos happens. The AI IMMEDIATELY uses spells, effects and all stuff the player was hiding to use in a proper moment.

I was playing with my brother and said that we'd have to stop so he should leave the game and then I would. The moment he left, the AI used a spell that would be a HUGE ADVANTAGE and the endgame, he was saving to use in the moment I would enter the crown of command. And this spoiler I already know. Hard to play knowing what he has hidden in his sleeves.

What is worst, we tried leaving the game, before the effect would be resolved. When we try to get back to them room, FOR SOME F** STUPID REASON, he's now the host. He, who doesn't have the expansions, became the host. What is worst, he can't begin the game, because it says he doesn't have the expansion. So.. the only way we can play is if, either one of us play, while the other joins later.

But in doing that, the AI would control another player and use a bunch of spells we were saving, revealing our aces for the endgame. For goodness's sake, what A HUGE FLAW!!!

I cant believe nobody has complained about that and if they did, you haven't yet fixed. I'm not a developer, programmer, but I'm pretty sure this doesn't require a complete do-over of the game. House rules like "If a player leaves the room, the AI can't use spells on the first turn" or "If player tries to join, allow for them to join in the same turn", I don't know, there are PLENTY OF OPTIONS.

But a game that has matches that could last hours, being very likely that they'll have to stop midgame to continue later and the AI will go on a casting spree cause the game CHANGES the host and won't allow the player who BEGAN the match to be the proper HOST, C'MON!!!!!!!!

I'm pissed af. Truly, I love the game, I truly do, but a game meant to be played online with friends, but with a HUGE FLAW in its online environment.... I wish Steam had a non-binary way to rate games. But if I have to choose between recommend or not, I don't recommend it. Until this is fixed, to avoid more people to have this upset. I'll keep playing. I love the game. But bearing in mind that at times, the AI will f**k the game because the online is flawed when dealing with absent players.

I truly hope you guys fix that.

Best regards and keep improving in the game.

Insanely fun! And the online community is very friendly (at least one I've played online even waited me as I was still getting the gist of the game).

O jogo é bem divertido e possui um gráfico bem charmoso, PORÉM, prum jogo de 17 reais, é curto demais... comprei ontem e já fiz praticamente tudo que tinha que pra fazer (e não gastei nem 4hs).
Então... recomendo mas melhor esperar uma promoção que fique mais em conta, a menos que você ache que 17 reais valha a pena pra 4hs de jogo.

O jogo é muito bom. A forma que a história se desenvolve, as mecânicas. Porém, pra 40 e pouco reais, eu zerei em 7hs de jogo. Ainda tem coisas para fazer mas nada que compense jogar mais. Achei salgadinho.

Adquiri o jogo no Humble Bundle, por um dólar, então o jogo foi muito em conta para mim. Então... O jogo é muito bom e recomendo. Só tem que se atentar que em 7hs dá pra fazer boa parte do que o jogo tem.

Tem o modo Arena, que é estilo "Aguente até onde der". Vi que são quatro arenas e não joguei, então eles não estão incluso nestas 7hs. Talvez compense, se você gosta de desafios maaas... Resumindo: jogo muito bom, preço salgadinho.
