Description provided by The Broken Meeple on YouTube:

Oathsworn: Into the Deepwood Review - How Will I Find The Time? A mammoth sized campaign game with a unique card play system and a mix of story telling and boss battling. But is there just too much content in the box for the average player? Oathsworn is a Twisting Tales Game for 1-4 players where play is focused on narrative choices and rich miniature combat encounters. The game is set in the Deepwood where a Free company (the Oathsworn) fights for humanity's survival against unnatural horrors and the Deepwood itself. Each gaming session sees the players participate in a multi path game book where the story unfolds to an inevitable encounter. The encounters are multi phase scripted boss fights on the encounter board where players have to outwit and outplay the AI driven monsters and enemies. As the sessions unfold the group is taken into a deep legacy campaign where they gain levels, loot and new allies to join them in their journey. *************************************** SUBSCRIBE ► https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmjyHBcqxxQjrg0KUN944dQ?sub_confirmation=1 KIENDA SPONSOR REFERRAL LINK The Broken Meeple is happy to be sponsored by Kienda.co.uk where you can buy great games at great prices from a warehouse local to where I live!

One single batchelor from the UK talking about his passion for board games and the people who play them! I support small content creators, board game cafes and go against the status quo when it comes to the board game industry. I give my honest opinions without bias towards any publishers or designers and will not hold back if I don't like a game. The Broken Meeple is a variety channel that hosts all kinds of board game content from reviews to Top 10 lists to playthroughs to live stream collaborations with special guests (predominantly small channels who deserve more exposure). I look forward to engaging with you, the community on my live streams or in the comments on my videos! *************************************** Timestamps: 00:00 - Introduction 01:39 - Overview 04:48 - Story Mode (Simple, Fun, But Feels Detached) 07:11 - Encounter Mode (Great Battleflow System But Weird Clairvoyance) 10:17 - Quite Rules Heavy But Not As Big A Barrier As Expected 12:38 - Dealing With Arcs Gets Fiddly and Annoying 14:33 - Component Quality (Who Needs Miniatures?) 16:54 - Best Played Solo (Unless You've Got A Dedicated Group) 17:59 - Is There Too Much Content (No Standalone Scenarios) 20:19 - Levelling Up A Little Slow 22:33 - Summary and Verdict #brokenmeeple #dicetower #watchitplayed #boardgames #boardgame #lukehector #supportsmallcreators #tabletop #tabletopgames #oathsworn #boardgamer #boardgamereview *************************************** Useful Links Become a Patreon ► https://www.patreon.com/TheBrokenMeeple Facebook ► https://www.facebook.com/thebrokenmeeple Twitter ► https://twitter.com/TheBrokenMeeple Instagram ► https://www.instagram.com/thebrokenmeeple Podcast ► https://soundcloud.com/luke-hector-broken-meeple
