Great Co-op

Very enjoyable co-op version of the Unmatched system. Has great components and is good fun to play. Pure solo - one hero - is not too challenging but a great way to learn. Two heroes spices things up.

Excellent, but could have done with one more villain

Unmatched has been one of my favourite head to head games for a while, but as someone who plays a lot of games solo I've been after a way to play all my unmatched characters in a solo/co-op mode. Tales to Amaze offers that with two main villains you can fight against who are bolstered by a variety of minions. The production is as excellent as always and the giant Mothman and UFO figures really stand out on the table. The new player characters are all good too, although not as iconic as some characters in previous sets. My only really gripes are the games can be quite swingy depending on who acts first on the initiative track and what cards the villains draw, and I also would have liked to see one more villain to round out the set as I can see it getting repetitive after a while, even with the modifier cards and different minions.

OVERVIEW

Unmatched Adventures: Tales to Amaze, which is themed around the pulp adventures, tall tales, and local legends of the mid-20th century, gives you a whole new way to play Unmatched.

In the game, players work together to defeat one of two villains: Mothman or the Martian Invader. Each villain has a unique battlefield with unique objectives. If the villain completes their objective (or defeats the heroes), the players lose. The villains are aided by a number of possible minions: Jersey Devil, Ant Queen, Loveland Frog, The Blob, Tarantula, and Skunk Ape. The enemies use special action cards and a simple targeting scheme to control their movement and attacks.

The set comes with four new heroes: Nikola Tesla discharges his electrified coils to power up his effects; Annie Christmas gets stronger when she's fighting from behind; The Golden Bat, the world's first superhero, has a variety of powerful effects; and Dr. Jill Trent, Science Sleuth, calls on a collection of gizmos.

Keeping to the Unmatched brand, you may use heroes from other Unmatched sets in Unmatched Adventures, and you can use the included heroes and battlefields to play competitive Unmatched.

Includes:

  •  8 Doom moth promo miniatures and 8 Little green Martian promo miniatures which will replace the standard tokens in the game. 
  • A Foil card promo pack
1-4 PLAYERS | 20+ MINS | AGES 9+
