Augmented Gaming has always been the big dream in boardgaming with roots deep in the XX century. And after trips like Atmosfear on VHS and DVD (we are talking early ‘90ies) and Dinoland as well as some experiences with franchise driven games the whole “automated master” system fell short until recent developments where this role has been passed to apps. And this game is exactly this: a huge experience of gaming in a new age and in a new dimension, giving a potentially static game endless replayability, because the mission specifics change, the map changes, the monsters change every time you replay even the same game. The impact is enormous. And it opens up a secondary aspect that can become huge in a very short time. Specifically, Fantasy Flight is now a game publisher in a DLC-driven economy and world, giving Mansions both physical and virtual expansion points and areas. Personally, I expect this behavior to become mainstream in most composable map games as well as most other games creating companion apps that make the experience more “alive” and less procedural.

As always an amazing step for strategy gaming. Beautiful graphics, splendid interactions, less "useless" eyecandy, more meaningful interactions than in previous installments. the "zone" concept is splendid and creates a spatial dynamics that was never explored before. Absolutely astonishing game.

Just as the Stanley Parable is a beautiful example of what gaming is, this is an example of what a future museum of gaming could be. Beautifully logical and illogical at the same time.

MASTERPIECE. A beautiful map, amazing locations, a very intriguing story and fascinating dynamics.

As every Borderlands game it is simply astonishing, fun, ironic and great. A must have for RPG players as well as FPS enthusiasts.

Gioco epico e strordinario, da sempre uno dei più bei giochi per PC e generatore di litigi tra amici da sempre.

Great modern twist on the classical Isometric games like Caesar and co.

Nice Idea, terrible development process, updates kill your progress and you have to start from scratch. I know, the game is still in development, but there is a limit to everything.

amazing storytelling experience with the right approach, open ending, open story, great feel of the interface.

Metaphysical, beautiful and mesmerizing. A great meta-game just like Stanley Parable.
