Maybe it's changed in the last few years, but when I played it it was broken as fuck and took way too long.

If you fell behind it was almost impossible to catch up.

Oh...

I'm trying to put together a christmas list for my mom, but I can't really find anything I want.

Best to focus on giving, then. You have your basic needs met and don't really want anything, so share the joy with some homemade cookies or something.

That's how I won my fiancée's heart.

Extremely simple gameplay with essentially no decision making.
Decision making is so scarce that it's borderline not even a game.

Back in the day, it sold on aesthetic.
But it sells on history these days.
A sucker's born every minute.

Are you implying anon should fuck his mother?

Talisman is okay. It's mostly luck, there's not a whole lot of decision making, and it can stretch on for a while, but it can be fun if you don't mind any of that too much.

I've played worse, anyway. There are better board games out there, but it might be worth trying if you can find it for a good price.

Only if they're both into it. I more meant treats for his friends and such.

Talisman is ok for playing with a max 4 ppl, with some beers and chatting. Full focus will get you bored soon since it's basically rolling and resolving random cards, decision making is limited to deciding in which direction to go a rolled number of fields and sometimes wether to do something or not.

If you're into it, buy it, just don't invest in the gazilion of expansions since they basically add cards, characters and some forced rules that change nothing, the game is still completely random and based on drawing random cards to gather equipment and fight monsters for long enough to get your chaacter powerul enough to go to the center and win. That's it.

General consensus is that Talisman sucks. Can be fun in small doses though.
