Mistborn Deckbuilding Game by Brotherwise Games | Fantasy Card Strategy with Allomantic Powers | Build Your Deck, Burn Metals, and Battle Through Cinematic Missions | 1 to 4 Players | Ages 13+

I was nervous that this was going to be a mid-tier game with a Mistborn coat of paint on top of it. But I was happily surprised that it is actually a fun game! The cards themselves have some really cool artwork on them that can really bring the Mistborn books to life. The inclusion of Shan as a playable character was...interesting, and the color of her health dial and of Marsh's does not seem to fit. But other than that, the artwork is superb. The game is a bit complex and takes some time to learn and teach. This would not be a great game to learn if you haven't played a deck builder before. But once you understand the mechanics, it is fun to choose a strategy and try to defeat your friends. The metal-burning mechanic helps to limit the amount of actions you can do in a turn w/out making your cards feel useless, and at the end of my first game, all 3 players felt very close to a victory. I haven't played co-op mode or solo mode yet, but I am excited to try. Warning: The game mechanics and cards do spoil content from the first Mistborn books. Some card artwork and names spoil events or characters from Mistborn books 2 and 3; however, these are minor spoilers and someone who hasn't read the books would likely not realize the spoiler for what it was. Therefore, I only recommend this game to those who have read at least the first in the series.

I love the Mistborn series and really enjoyed the illustrations in this game. At the time, I've only played co-op and solo, but it's been very entertaining. The game contains heavy spoilers from the first book. It contains some images of the second and third book but without context I dont think they count as a spoiler. Maybe one or two cards could spoil some parts of the book if you look closely at them, with the exception of "Dominate", that card has a spoiler from the end of book 2. It takes some time getting use to the rules, and it's likely that you will need to play with the rulebook on hand on the first couple of games, but it's worth it.

I will start out by saying that I am a Brando-Sando groupie. I have immersed myself in most all of his books and lore. I thought that this game was super well designed to be fun, strategic and sticks to the lore of Mistborn. I would say it similar to several other deckbuilder games I have played. Not a whole lot different the main mechanics. What it does do differently is require the burning or flaring of metals to play cards. This adds a very strategic component to the game. This game operates well multiplayer, coop or solo. The RNG plays a huge factor in the difficulty of each play mode. I have played multiplayer, coop and solo where I dominated and other times, I got demolished. The design of the game is great where it provides the right balance of challenge. Not too hard or easy. It all just depends on what cards you are able to build your deck with. This would be a great gift for anyone who enjoys Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn novels as well as someone who knows nothing about them. Your background knowledge of the novels has nothing to do with being able to play the game. It is just cohesive with the world and lore in the book if you have read it.

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.

Purchased after playing a friends copy. I was surprised at how high quality the materials for this game are. I have now played this game 7 times in the two weeks I’ve had it and it’s been a blast. It has a solo/co-op mode that is a ton of fun but also decently challenging, and then they also have a pvp mode that is insanely fun and is a great way to try out different character builds. Crazy amount of replay value for the price.

Starts off chill and as the combo setup comes together it’s very rewarding. A bit difficult learning curve but comes together well with practice. The co-op mode was fun also! Barely won by the skin of our teeth.

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.

Product Arrived Sealed and in perfect condition. Very happy

I bought this as a Brandon Sanderson fan and a cosmere nerd first. I dint expect to play it. It arrived in good time and perfect condition. I played this with my daughter who has zero interest in fantasy but likes games. She enjoyed it while I loved it. So far we have played co-op which was fun and 2 player versus each other, she destroyed me and it was fun. I’ve played solo which was good and I failed to beat the lord ruler. Bottom line it’s good fun. You do not need to know the story and it only helps to get more enjoyment out if playing.

super jeu de deckbuilding , mieux vaut y jouer à 1-2 qu'à 3-4 car les parties sont trop longues et beaucoup plus difficiles

Gran juego de creación de mazos, muy divertido. Muy inmersivo 10/10

O jogo é ótimo mas a entrega da Amazon sem a embalagem secundária nem opção pra presente pra poupar grana e com papo de preservar o ambiente me deixou com uma caixa do jogo toda detonada.
