Fun chaos

I quite like this game, and in certain groups it's a great bit of fun - I've always played it with a roleplaying group, before or after our main game, and it went down really well. The game looks great, both on the shelf and on the table. My main problem with it is the fiddliness of the player tokens on the carts, which doesn't go well for me given that I have manual fine control issues. Some of the card effects are also a bit unclear at first, but there aren't many of them, so you get used to them soon enough. All in all, though, a fun bit of chaos, where there is usually a good bit of tension about the end game, although there is minimum strategy involved.

GAME OVERVIEW

The dreaded Black Death has descended upon the town of Bristol. You are racing down the streets in one of the three available apple carts, desperate to escape into the safety of the countryside. If your cart is the first to leave the town and it is full of only healthy villagers when you leave, you and your fellow cart-mates successfully escape and win the game!

However, some villagers on your cart may already have the plague! They are hiding their early symptoms from you so that they can enjoy their last few days in peace. If you leave town with a plagued villager on your cart, you will catch the plague. You must do whatever is necessary to make sure that doesn't happen!

On the surface Bristol 1350 is part co-operative teamwork, part racing strategy, and part social deduction. In reality, it's a selfish scramble to get yourself out of town as quickly as possible without the plague, by any means necessary.

The game comes in a magnetic book box and includes a rubber playmat, 9 wood pawns, 3 miniature carts, 6 rat/apple dice, a linen bag, and 64 cards. This standalone game is Volume 4 in the "Dark Cities Series" by Facade Games following Salem 1692, Tortuga 1667, and Deadwood 1876.

1-9 PLAYERS | 20-40 MINS | AGES 13+
