I have this. It's a super chill coop game. You have grampa's goals, and then fish, harvest, make friends etc. I recommend it.
Oh, wow. I had import the game to Germany by a specialised board game retailer... Took a few months and bucks.
Ha ha ha. Here I am, didn't even know this was a thing, and was like "Oh, neat." snaps pic
What did it cost? Online prices seemed super high, even compared to bgg hits like dune uprising or the smaller gloomhaven.
$60. Is that high? I can't tell anymore in an economy where a McDonalds cheeseburger costs more than my dad paid for his house....
It's not! The only option I could find which would get me the game to Germany was 128€ (including shipping and tax). So around double, assuming that your price is without sales tax.
It’s actually a pretty good board game.
It was $60. I don't have any frame of reference for if that's a good price or a ripoff. The box was WAY heavier then I thought. Pretty sure they ship this thing with some bricks or something.
I bought it when it was new and still haven't played it. My wife and I brought it out and took it apart once, but by the time we were done getting all the pieces ready, we didn't feel like playing it anymore. I'm sure it's a great game, but I don't often want to familiarize myself with a bunch of little details when I'm just trying to play a quick, chill game with the family.
Bit meh tbh. A lot of progression is dependent on whether or not you can upgrade your tools, and that's heavily RNG. We've had plenty of games where we just could not roll the ores to upgrade our tools.
Mining is the one part of the game I don't like. I'm ok with the RNG of fishing, animals, foraging, and cards. You're still usually making progress even if you didn't roll what you wanted.
But a lot of things rely on ores, and there isn't a good way to mitigate bad rolls like other tools. Even the pickaxe barely helps, and that's because you need one exact roll in most cases. Descending levels is at least possible outside of mining with a couple stones, but only barely.
Yeah, the rest of the game is pretty fun with managing resources and planning out your day, but the mines are rough. I think that's the thing that usually causes us to loose.
Overall though it's pretty fun co-op game.
