Absolutely. I’m playing with 12 and 8 yr old. I’m sure 8yr old won’t get much but hopefully 12 yr picks up eventually. Let’s see. Thx for the suggestions tho.

I wouldn't suggest playing this with kids younger than 12. It's not a "fun" game as much as there's a satisfaction in being able to "solve the puzzle". Setup is a bit lengthy but it should get faster...

Played today for the first time and felt the same. It seems mostly just some randomized random killings. Some things re unnecessarily overly complicated I felt. Set up took forever and kids lost...

Gloomhaven isn't a role-playing game like D&D. It presents a scenario through some light preset storytelling and your goal is to simply complete it with a constantly diminishing amount of actions....

This is actually perfect then. Think of it as a dungeon crawl without all of that messy role playing. :)

Yes. It's marvelous in that it's literally designed to open the box and go; the first five scenarios are a tutorial that teaches you the game and assumes no Gloomhaven experience.

No, it would be a wonderful buy. This has a veneer of a dungeon crawler and D&D vibes, but it's actually a tactical puzzle and the story element is very light. Every scenario you basically move...

One of the most fun gaming experiences I've ever had with my family. Now playing big box Gloomhaven and I miss my Red Guard's Strangling Chain so bad.

My buddy and I ran through 8 or 9 scenarios so far and it has been a good time. The gameplay is a bit tricky to get a hold of at first, but the game does a great job of introducing you to the...

I love board games. The complexity of this doesn't scare me but I'm not sure I'll like the game. I'm not a d&d fan though I've never tried. I don't like the idea of making a story and all that, I...

It's fairly complex, but I managed to play through it with an 8 and 10 year old with a little bit of hand holding. I wouldn't call it casual though, in the sense that you might play a game of...

I'm glad you did. Editor's note compares it to a worse sale in June, making this look like the best option ever. It's a matter of a few dollars, so no biggie, but slick dealers like to stay informed...

The game introduces the mechanics of the game across the first 5 scenarios, with each one building on the last. After 5 scenarios I'm still looking things up in the manual as my group doesn't play...

How is that helpful? Can you go back in time to save a dollar? Or are you saying don't get it now, wait another who knows how long, so you can save a dollar?

I'm a big fan of Splendor and 7 Wonders. Is Gloomhaven comparable to those? Watching some of the how-to-play YouTube videos for GloomHaven, my impression was that my brain would hurt a little...
