Watch “Epic Seven Arise All-In (Unboxing),” a board game unboxing for Epic Seven Arise: The Boardgame from All Games New and Old on BoardGameVideo.
Description provided by All Games New and Old on YouTube:
In this video I unbox the all in Kickstarter pledge of Epic Seven Arise from Japanime Games and Farside Games. There is some odd audio in this video. I fixed it as well as I could so hopefully it isn't too big a problem.
This cooperative board game is based on a mobile app of the same name. The art is done in an anime style that I absolutely love. At the all in pledge level I had quite a few boxes to open, so I'm going to add timestamps for the different parts.
This board game, in addition to having amazing anime art, it also has the option of playing with either acrylic standees or miniatures. I was really blown away by the quality of the miniatures in this board game. They have a ton of detail and seem to made with good quality platic.
I'm really excited to give this cooperative board game a try. Hopefully the gameplay will match up to the productions.

About Epic Seven Arise: The Boardgame, from BoardGameGeek:
Epic Seven Arise is the tabletop adaptation of the Epic Seven mobile game that depicts heroes attempting to save the seventh world from destruction.
In the game, each player takes the role of a hero heir - a being created by the Goddess of Life, Diche - to protect the world of Orbis from the Archdemon and the Acolytes. Each hero comes with a skill deck representing their unique set of skills. During play, heroes must manage their actions and coordinate with the team, moving to the locations under the most threat and doing battle with enemies, ideally finding time to recover and purchase items between engagements as they prepare to defeat the monsters and enemies.
The game has multiple chapters, and each of them has a similar structure of main plot and side quests. If any hero dies during the round, they suffer a penalty, but can be revived in the next round. As long as one of you is still alive, you still have a chance to win. The chapters are all standalone and not contingent on being played in a certain order or with the same players.
The board game significantly broadens the original game's universe and emphasizes the depth of the plot, yet its main focus is on interaction driven by game stories and decision making.
