Ratings and reviews

If you're a fan of board games and Magic: The Gathering style card games, then this game is the one for you. This can be played against 3 AI or four people in real time. There's a huge array of playable characters, each bringing their own special attribute that you can strategize with, along with selecting the faction they play as. There is the base game, but has numerous dlc expansions that add new characters, cards, and even sections of the game board. This is definitely a game worth buying.

I played Talisman all weekend with friends, and it is blatantly clear the AI has much higher luck than the player. It is frustrating to finally have a decent match, only for the AI to rush Command with low stats and miraculously make it. Also, for the love of Pete, please fix the UI clipping at the top and move the re-roll button to a different location than roll...

This is a great game if you can get into an online match or play with friends. If you try to play against the AI, as in you in a local game against just computer players, you're in for the worst gaming experience ever. Now, I tried to play like 30 games total before I made this review. So this isn't based off some "one bad game experience." Long story short, your AI is alot more fortunate than players, and you don't even try to hide it. Rolls favor the AI almost 99 percent of the time.
