Mistborn Deckbuilding Game - Forge Alliances in Epic Metal-Burning Battles - Cooperative Card Game by Designer John - Immersive Strategic Gameplay

I've played this now 1:1 against my wife and in a 4 player match with my regular game night buddies. It's a highly strategic game that has a lot to keep track of but not so much that it's overwhelming. You really need to adapt your strategy to the character you have as well as the cards that end up in play from which you build your deck.Both times I've played competitively and I've had a lot of fun. The 2-player version is more fast paced while the 4-player version takes a bit more time. Finished in about an hour with my wife and about 2 hours with my buddies.The elements specific to the world of Mistborn are definitely fun if you're a fan of Brandon Sanderson's work like my wife and I. My friends haven't read any of his Mistborn books though and they still loved it. Got one of my friends interested in reading the series.Highly recommend the game, for sure give it a shot if you like deck building games like Dominion or if your a Mistborn fan (the metal relationships make more sense if you're familiar with that world).

We bought this for my son who LOVES Sanderson everything as a Christmas gift. He has taught the whole family how to play and it really is an awesome game. It is pretty advanced, not a game for young kids or people with no patience. But even I enjoy the game and I haven't read any of Brandon Sanderson's books, I also don't like to play board games. But this is one I will recommend.

Really fun game! Have only played it with 2 people so far, but both versus and co-op gameplay modes are fun. The Lord Ruler is appropriately difficult to defeat, but doable. Excited to play this with a group of 3-4. Game takes longer than it says on the box, but once you learn it pace of play is good.

Husband and I are both fans of the series, and the theming and artwork of this game are top notch. The game play has been entertaining so far—very similar to Hogwarts Battle, which is one of our favorites. We do feel like this game will have limited replay value as is (since there is not a ton of variability), but it has plenty of potential for expansions that would make it more interesting and challenging.Our biggest critique so far is that it seems like in PvP mode (we’ve only played with 2 players so far), it is far too easy to win by completing the missions vs either of the other methods. There seem to be quite a few more cards for mission completion in comparison to cards with attack points. We may try to modify the game by taking out a few cards that seem to make the mission track OP, or by adding a requirement to complete more missions.

An extremely simple game to understand. I'm horrible at explaining rules, but within a turn or two everyone picks it up easily. I'm also a huge fan of Mistborn and the Cosmere and found this game to be very flavorful; the way each of the metals are represented in the gameplay is creative and offers tons of variety in strategy.

Great game! Single player is fine, but having 2 or more is better in my opinion. The rules can be a little tricky at first, but it all flows well and makes a lot of sense. Great game if you like deck building games, and a MUST if you also are a Sanderson fan!

It's a top-notch game, good quality and fun to play and replay and replay. Multiple play modes, including solo. Art is beautiful. I recommend getting tight fit plastic protector penny leaves to increase durability since you will likely be playing it more than you think.I has larger cards, you can get the 70x120 sleeves as well for added protection, though those will receive less wear and tear.Quality doesn't require the sleeves, but its worth having them. there are inexpensive ones right here.

I am a huge fan of the books, my husband hasn’t read them but the complexity of the game art and features and how it ties very closely to the game, he now wants to read the books!Anyway, so fun, the deck building reminds me of how dominion is structured. With the added fun of the mission cards, flaring metals, training, charecter specifics, allies, and you can even play against the game, which is challenging but VERY FUN!
