Quotes (from this video)
- G'day guys, and welcome to the short review of Dreams and Mysteries, the Lands of Galzyr.
- Noko is a flat-headed rock agama, which is a type of lizard, and Umi is a small strawberry poison frog. They are the roguish character for Lands of Galzyr.
- So, each time you play, you'll do a little bit of the story, and then you reach a save point, and then you can pick up the story later.
- All of the new content just goes straight into the core box, and you can reset your game if you want to start over again, or just add it to a game that's currently going.
- Some of the stuff I came across playing with the expansion was a little bit darker than some of the stuff I'd played earlier.
- I forgot how much I love the central dice mechanic in this game.
- If you do own Lands of Galzyr, absolutely pick this up. I highly recommend it.
