My Little Scythe

My wife and I have been playing My Little Scythe with our three sons for several years. The youngest was 6 when we started playing it and he understood the game just fine. Our oldest is nearly 12 and he still enjoys the game. My wife and I also genuinely have fun playing it. I bought this copy for my nephews because I recently played it with them and a couple of my sons and they all had a blast with it.

I was so excited to play this with my 7yo, but was a little nervous because it seems like alot when you open it all up. But once we got going, the turns were really quick and simple. Everyone had a blast and it actually didn’t take very long either. It was pretty quick! BEAUTIFUL minis!

I've played Scythe several times with friends who love it, but it has never hit that sweet spot for me. My Little Scythe has everything I like about Scythe, with everything I dislike about it stripped away. It plays fast, the teach is a breeze, the aesthetics are right up my alley, it's streamlined, and not bogged down with unnecessary mechanics. Superior to Scythe in every way.

The production on this is stellar. The minis were so wonderful to paint- I let the kids pick the colors I used for each and suggest details- they look amazing! It's a little light now for my 9 year old, even though they still enjoy it- I think that has a lot to do with it's looks-, but it's still a bit too complex for my 6 year old. Since there's not really any luck, you have to point out the best moves for them while not always taking the best moves for you, until they get the strategy down.

My Little Scythe is a great family game for all ages. I honestly play with adults more than anything. This game is very simple but is so much fun. It feels like playing a simple competitive app game, but on the table with real people or solo. Get resources, throw pies, and rush to the kingdom. This game does not disappoint.

This game is insanely perfect for a great immersive experience with your kids. It's really our top 1 game here at home and the way you need to do your missions makes perfect sense to the game.

Amazing game. We were overwhelmed at first understanding how the game is played. After a short, five minute YouTube video, we were able to play with our five year old kid. They love it. It’s complex enough that my partner had fun too — and there are rules to make it more complex as families grow up.

Picked up at GenCon. Have played games from 2p against my 5 year old daughter to 6p w/ coworkers and haven't had an unfun session yet. I actually think it took the adults longer to learn the rules than my children! The quality and quantity of components, along with built-in storage, painting guide for the miniatures and an included AI opponent make this a STEAL. Longest game I've played was the 6p where I was the only one with any knowledge of rules (and some conversation+drinks added in) and still was only about 45 min played. All told, excellent purchase with no regrets.
