Beast (Mode) Unlocked: Shattered Isles Expansion - Impressions & Infatuation

Watch “Beast (Mode) Unlocked: Shattered Isles Expansion - Impressions & Infatuation,” a board game review for Beast: Shattered Isles on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by Liege of Games on YouTube:

#LiegeOfGames #boardgames Beast, the hidden movement asymmetric hunter vs beast game of cunning death trapping is back! Now with the Shattered Isle expansion, I have an early prototype copy of what some of the new content is going to look like, so now what do you need to know? My thoughts as someone who loved the base game: will this do more of the same, the feared power/complexity creep, or what exactly is the expansion adding for you? Some insight to help figure out whether or not it's for you or even if its necessary, essential, or something else?!? Let's go. Thanks for watching!

About Beast: Shattered Isles, from BoardGameGeek:

The Shattered Isles introduces a brand new world, with three new Beasts, three new hunters, two maps, four contracts, and a heap of new and exciting gameplay mechanics. Shattered Isles comes with 4 new Action Cards, an updated and improved way of drafting your cards, 13 new Items, 13 new Beastly Talents, and 4 new Contracts that change the way you play the game. Beasts: Vacker, Thalduk, Akkeron Hunters: Eivind, Fara, Valdi New Mechanics The two new maps feature Hidden Paths: pathways that can only be accessed by characters native to the same habitat the path originates from. Ruins can be found on the map. Begin a turn in the same location as a ruin to unlock forgotten and powerful magic. Split Actions can be played in combination with any other card for the highest flexibility possible. -description from the designer
