From the moment we saw this game and learned about how it is played, we were excited to be able to give it a try. Rise Of The Exiled combines your typical battle/attack card game with the act of physically throwing your attacks toward your opponent. This opens up the game to a whole new realm of funness (pardon the invented word).
Some people aren't into fantasy attack style card games but when you involve throwing things in an attempt to hit your opponent's character card, they're in. We experienced this in our testing group (we try to get the most diverse group together). Some were slightly reluctant to play at first glance, but after the first round they were hooked.
We had the game rules handy and referenced them a lot through the first few games until we got the hang of the game play and the specific rules for each character and weapon card (helpful hints are also on the back of the cards). The rulebook is very helpful and nicely written (19 pages in all). Examples are given with useful pictures, clear concise explanations about different abilities are well organized and colorful point zones on each character are crucial. There is a lot to take in but you can keep things simple until you work up to it.
The gameplay is awesome! We loved it. Players work in teams to destroy their opponents. After each turn, everyone at the same time will move their card one card length in any direction which opens up a fun strategy element (use a big table). The attack phase is obviously the best as everyone simultaneously attacks. Cards go flying and even at times hit and deflect each other. Some cards will overlap, some will bounce away, others will just barely slide into position hitting their target. Luck (or skill) in where your attack card lands creates a fun atmosphere as the youngest or more "untalented" thrower can make a great hit. Some special abilities even make your opponent throw their attack card with their eyes closed or attacks can extend themselves to hit two players.
As far as quality goes, we were given a beta test pack that wasn't fully complete nor a representation the actual final product. From what we received and played with, this game will be amazing when fully produced and based on how well the game has been put together we have full confidence in the game creators to deliver a high quality game.
Our only complaint, if you can even call it that, is it would be nice to somehow know what everyone's score is at any given time and also nice to not have to remember your own score. The other thing we found is some people will get pretty particular whether an attack card is actually overlapping or not. A magnifying glass was almost brought out at one point. We don't see how you can get away from that. There is always that one player...
In summary, this game rocks! We can't even imagine the fun, chaos and excitement that would occur if 12 people were playing but we were impressed that a game this simple could handle and involve so many people. Rise Of The Exiled is a small game that packs a huge punch (or should we say blade disc, claw, vine, star knife...).
