“As a Descent 2nd Edition fan, I had to see how this new title held up to it's massively loved predecessor . My son and I were blown away at how fluid game play is. After a short time you'll completely love the app that tracks the game.”

“The miniatures are as near GW quality detail as I've seen in a big box boardgame. Seriously huge improvement over previous efforts. Gameplay so far is engrossing. I'm primarily a solo gamer (probably 90% of the time) and not one to have an issue with an app that helps keep everything moving along. About 3 hours into playing and all the minis primed and a couple painted. I'll definitely my money's worth out of this one. Hopefully FFG will continue down this path I've never played a perfect game of any type so 4 stars is the best I ever give.”

“Fantasy Flight has done it again. I have collected and loved playing every Descent game and expansion that has been released. I was excited when they announced the new Descent, Legends of the Dark. I was saddened to see that it was not compatible with the Descent 2 but as FF did a great job of integrating the first Descent into the second edition I wasn't too worried. Getting the box was so exciting and the miniatures are exquisite. The detail and the action poses are outstanding. The art work seemed a bit cartoony at first but I found it refreshing as it makes for a heightened ability to paint and richer creature/character creation in a 3d environment. The cardboard cut outs scratched my itch is several ways. The game allows for you to interact with these environmental elements much better than previously. It always bugged me with other games that had treasure chest or bookshelves in the game area that did not block movement. In LOTD they make those spaces obstacles, nice. The app is excellent! It is fairly easy to maneuver and it track all those things that you don't want to. The adventure mapping and story line is very rich and the app does not take over for you where you want to be in control (figure movement, interactions). You can feel the depth that FF has taken with Terrinoth and expect more to come... I love that it says Act I on the side of the box.”
