Quotes (from this video)
- It's one of those games where you are freaking out about the game ending

- They all have special abilities that are different
- The end game scoring can be brutal, but it's so good
- You can spend like an hour trying to figure out the rules and then you still don't understand some of the rulings

Pros
- Awesome gameplay inherited from base game/Undertow

- Encounter and enemy designs are interesting and challenging
- New mechanics (lava, darkness, shaking ground) add interesting twists with low rules overhead
- Rock and Roll tyrant is interesting, not complicated, fun, and unique
Cons
- Gale is not a strong selling point
- Tyrant designs for Cinder and Domina are unfun and overly complex
- Cinder's encounter can be a problem if you draw too many ranged baddies and can't lure them to flip lava tokens
- Domina adds too much to remember, especially in solo three-handed
- Domina's scout mechanic invalidates Carcass's mechanic
- Lava mechanic chip design makes it difficult to track gear locks on lava tiles
- Tyrant designs are mechanically obtuse and difficult to keep track of
- Carcass's cooking deck and gross food card mechanic is confusing
Thematic elements

Quotes (from this video)
- this is good old Too Many Bones and that means that it's all the awesome gameplay that you know from playing the base game or Undertow.
- Figment was a blast and definitely a gear lock that if they sold it individually, I would buy a Figment. Figment is amazing.
- my biggest complaint, folks, is the tyrant uh designs.
- I would not recommend this as your entry point to Too Many Bones.
- Just go with the base game if you're considering which entry you should get into just go with the base game.
- I prefer Undertow over this much more
