By flinbad the flailer Go To PostThe story is … there. Some people might find it compelling, but it's not to my taste. The game is excellent because of how the mechanisms and systems themselves evolve (to the designers' credit, in complete harmony with the story being told). You read off cards, for example, that tell you some new element of the overall narrative, but the real thrill is opening a box and discovering new components and rules that fundamentally change how you play the game. I don't want to post any spoilers, but it has some remarkable trickery in there.I've played Risk Legacy and Seafall as well. Risk Legacy is the best version of risk and Seafall fell to the hype. It is a good game, but takes an extremely long time to pick up.
If you were to dedicate solid chunks of those 5 days, you could probably complete the entire campaign, especially if any of you are already experienced Pandemic players.

We played 16 games.
