The fact that great Donald X is behind the game is a blessing and a curse. It gets the game instant recognition with a large group of fans of his previous games. At the same time a good portion of that group of fans love deep euro mechanics and are expecting something similar.Personally, I love games of all kinds so this is a hit with me as well. When I see Donald X has designed another game, I know he has a passion for games and puts a lot of thought into them. The reviews / reactions were very similar when Infiltration was released. I ended up ignoring them and found an amazingly thematic and fun press your luck game.
I'd encourage people to do the same with this game. Everyone likes different things and some folks don't like games without heavy strategy and tactics. If you like a more casual, funny, dungeon crawl experience then check this one out.
