Kapow! Volume 2: Review

David Niecikowski, PhD

David Niecikowski, PhD

Watch “Kapow! Volume 2: Review,” a board game review for KAPOW! Volume 2 from David Niecikowski, PhD on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by David Niecikowski, PhD on YouTube:

Superhero — or supervillain? You decide in this buildable dice game. Your customizable dice pool is used to execute a variety of superpowers. Gain special abilities and new play experiences by taking on the role of six different heroes or villains. In KAPOW!, players go head-to-head in a classic explosive clash of good vs. evil. You choose to be a villain or hero, which determines your starting trait dice and unique abilities. You can gain additional blank "action dice" that have removable faces that that you customize to your liking to best enhance your character. Behind a player screen, you roll dice, then allocate them to attack, defense, and power-up abilities. The combination of choosing how to grow your dice pool, how to customize your action die faces, and how to use each roll leads to a satisfying, strategic showdown. KAPOW! Volume 2 contains six supers: Mindset, Spore, and Crescendo are the heroes, while Fuse, 235, and Reverb are the villains. This set can be combined with KAPOW! Volume 1 to mix and match the characters or have up to four players in one game. #kapow #kapowvolume2 #dicegame #wisewizardgames #superherogames #julieniecikowski kapow volume 2 wise wizard games dice rolling fighting player vs player solo cooperative board card dice superhero comic book david julie niecikowski
