Mantic Games Hellboy The Board Game (Base Game) MGE HB101

THis is a wonderful coop dungeon crawl game. the characters sheets let the game feel like the Hellboy stories and give the heroes the right feel and personality in gameplay. the Minions and Boss Monsters line up well with the BPRD mythos and storylines. Overall a very enjoyable and shareable gameplay that doesn't play the same game after game. Very happy with the purchase and the game experience.

The Hellboy game was just as described. It was in perfect condition. And, it got here much faster than they said. I had it in my hands the week after ordering. I would definitely order from them again.

Great Christmas gift for my son. He loved it. Shipping took about 2 weeks.

Somehow I didn’t realize that the figures are unpainted. So be aware that you’ll have your work cut out for you. But it’s a beautiful game!

First leave the components of the game are solid. The miniatures are beautifully sculpted, and the tiles look great. If you're familiar with modern board games then this will be pretty easy to pick up. The mechanics are similar to most games of its type. My entire game group had figured out the rules in just a couple rounds. I love the Hellboy franchise so I'm a tiny bit biased. I think the atmosphere is just right. It feels like your hell boy skulking around investigating a case with monsters running around. The only downside I have is the variety. This base game feels like it was meant to have the expansions all along. Otherwise you're doing a few missions and always fighting frog monsters. If it were up to me I probably would have replaced half of the frog miniatures with another enemy type. That being said if you have the money, pick up a couple expansions and you'll completely avoid this problem.

If you have any interest in hell boy this game is great. The rules are pretty straight forward and easy to learn. The one thing lacking is there seems to be little follow up once you win or lose story wise it just seems to end. More narrative would have been nice.

So first things first the sculpts are really nice. It's a huge bummer that it's only frog monsters though. with a set of tentacles and one other monster. I expected something a bit more varied beasts in the game I guess. As far as the actual gameplay though, I returned it. The instructions were a convoluted mess you have to slog through and if you have players at your table that aren't really invested to begin with, it's a nightmare. I had been watching this game for a while wanting to give it a try but it's just administratively not very well laid out in the booklet. I ended up sending it back and getting Disney's Villainous and Nemesis instead.

Based on the hellboy comics, work your way though scenarios to uncover the bad guy, before he finds you. Enjoyable, if you're a fan of the comics I would highly recommend.

Bel gioco, giocabile anche in single player. Aggiornerò dopo averlo approfondito…do comunque 5 stelle per la qualità delle miniature, davvero ben fatte. Per ora unica pecca….Amazon, usa scatole quando spedisci prodotti che hanno un certo costo…non inviare con etichetta su scatola originale…un angolo è andato distrutto… Non lo rendo solo perché voglio provarlo e non ho pazienza di aspettare.

Excelente juego con mecánicas, no nuevas, pero muy bien aplicadas... Lamentablemente el juego alcanza su máximo solo con expansiones pero el juego base si deja satisfecho...

One of the most beautifully designed games I’ve ever seen, and so much fun to play either alone in Solo missions or in a group. I love this game and as a fan of Hellboy I can not recommend it enough, fantastic!

First of all - excellent customer service. Best Regards to Rachel! Game is more than fun with all graphics based on comic series and many nice touches. It is more than ok for one player - solo campaign has a good replayability, I prefer to play with 3 agents. It might be hard to explain to beginner players who might be overwhelmed with amount of rules, but it is very satisying when you finally get through. I would call it a dungeon crawler with a twist - scalability of players works more than fine. I enjoy it a lot!

I don't understand the retail pricing on this one... The minis are great, but there aren't a lot of them. Ontop of that, I received an obviously used copy that had a torn token in it. Upon inspecting other tokens, I realised that they are made of a light cardboard, nothing like what I've received with other AAA board games. I thought they may have made up for all of that with content... Nope, 6 scenarios in the box, giving the base content a playtime of maybe 10 hours. That's shameful. This is only worth it if you're willing to fork out double to expand it with 2 of the larger expansions which are unfortunately very hard to find!
