Talisman: Legendary Tales

This is a good game if you want to play a bit less intense version of Talisman. Very family friendly!

I bought this to play with my 5 & 7 yo kidlets and they’ve loved it! The symbols are clear and easy for them to understand so they only need an occasional reminder here and there. The adventures have fun themes and having each split into 2 chapters makes for an easy break point if needed (although we haven’t used it yet since my kids always want to keep playing). My minor complaints are that pretty much all of the pieces were printed a bit off center (if that will drive you nuts be warned!) and that the cardboard tokens are very light and hard to mix well in the bags, especially for kids, so they’re likely to pull whatever the last thing put in was. They’d be so much nicer made out of something a bit heavier. Overall, I like it and think it makes a nice light family game that is very friendly to young players.

Its so much fun and very easy to learn. Don't let the ammount of little peices at first overwhelm you after you're done punching them out and setting up everything gets pretty organized especially with nice little cloth bags they provide. Wish there were some expansions. Also to make the game more challenging its not too hard to come up with house rules to change the difficulty for more of a challenge.
