GGG - Elder Sign - rules

Post by MorGrendel »

Hello All,
I recieved Elder Sign for my birthday. This is probably the most thematic and lengthy game I have recieved to this point. I have become a real proponent for finishable/quick-to-play/low downtime games. In an attempt to speed up play, here are the rules so you can aquaint to them.

We played it and it was good. There seems like a lot to keep track of, but its not bad because once you set up there are few moving peices during the rolling. The only thing we struggled with was keeping the clock correct, but I have since realized that if we passed it like a turn marker, that would be easily remedied. Missy thought it was dorky but enjoyable. Looks like she'd play it again, which is a real testament to the game. I thought it was easy to win, but there are plenty of rule variants that make the game tougher.
