   The Dark Gothic Deck-builder is basically a card game version of Flying Frog’s Touch of Evil Board game. And, in my opinion, a BETTER version of that game.

   As much as I admire Flying Frog aesthetics, ethos, artwork and ideas (in terms of ‘theme’, FF’s games are nearly always a 9 or 10), their board games always fall flat for me and nearly all of my game group. Sadly, all of FF’s board games incorporate the very WORST of AmeriTRASH games of old. In terms of game mechanics, they’re just dated, even bad, when compared to more modern and Euro-influenced games.

   The Dark Gothic card game fixes most of Flying Frog’s game design issues. Gothic uses tried and tested Deck-Building game mechanics with a few tweeks, adds FF’s theme and (gloriously cheesy) artwork to create a solid Fantasy Frog gaming experience. Avoid the “Touch of Evil” board game and get this instead. It’s cheaper, shorter and a more solid gaming experience.

   I love the “A Touch of Evil” boardgame by Flying Frog Productions. Sadly it doesn’t make it to the table in my game group as often as I’d like. This quick deckbuilding version of the game though is easy enough to setup and play and still carries enough of the theme for me. The production quality is right in line with all the other Flying Frog games and as always the art and theme are enjoyable. The rules are easy to learn and after a few hands you’ll have them memorized. Replayability is high as well as the enemies and decks always change and you have a good selection of heroes to choose from. Finally, there is at least one expansion that can be added to the game if you ever feel it’s growing stale.

   This card game is a very worthy companion to the Touch of Evil series of games. Not as involved as the board game, but enjoyable on its own.

   I like this game. It’s a deck building game where the players work in a semi-cooperative way. Unlike other semicooperative games, you don’t spend any time in this one back stabbing other players.

   You can play with anywhere between two – six players. One of the nice things about this game is that you never have a turn where you just sit with nothing to do. You must accumulate resources, combat, cunning, or spirit, to vanquish foes, and score points.

   Many of the classic New England monsters are here for you to pick your wits against. Another nice thing about the game is that it plays in less than an hour.

   There is enough randomness to it that it has a moderately high replay value.
