Pros
  • Six awesome new characters to add to the game.
  • Thematic integration with Arthurian Legends.
  • Compatible and mixes well with the original Tag Team game.
  • Persville's concept of getting better with more cards is cool.
  • Excalibur is a neat idea with interesting implications.
  • Many fun combinations and strange pairings possible.
  • The system supports diverse character mechanics while maintaining the core game feel.
Cons
  • Morgan is considered the least favorite character and breaks the game flow.
  • Morgan's power is not that interesting.
  • The standalone product is not as compelling as the original due to fewer characters.
  • Characters in this set don't have as wild swings from each other compared to the original.
  • Excalibur doesn't feel as flashy as other mechanics.
Thematic elements
  • Arththeran Legends
Comparison games
  • Tag Team
Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
  • Area Movement — Merlin has a token that moves on a tree, activating abilities based on its position.
  • auto battler — The game is described as an auto battler of sorts.
  • Buffing/Debuffing — Excalibur's cards often help the opponent, and if Excalibur breaks, teammates start losing hit points at a terrible rate. Some cards also count as multiple cards.
  • Card Play — Players reveal cards one by one from their deck to attack.
  • character abilities — Each of the 12 characters had different decks and were very different, with the new set focusing on six characters.
  • Deck Building — Players put together a deck of cards which are revealed one at a time to fight.
  • Healing — The Green Knight heals every time they play their starting card. Some cards involve healing.
  • Set Collection — The Green Knight has a mechanic related to having five flame tokens of the same character for an auto-win in the original game.
  • token management — Merlin starts with tokens and gains more, which contribute to actions and increase power. The Green Knight has a token that moves down, reducing max hit points.

Quotes (from this video)
  • If I was going to buy one, I get the original one because it has 12 characters and the combinations there are well more and it's even more than double because the they go up exponentially.
  • Merlin is definitely an oddity that I think in all of Tag Team. And I might be wrong here, right? But I think they're the only character where you actually have to make a decision once the battle starts.
  • My two favorite in here by far are Persville because I know he's very simple, but I love this concept of the more cards he has, the better you are.
  • And then Excalibur because it's just a cool thing. If when Excalab breaks, you're like, 'We're going to die now' (laughter) cuz your other guy's like just takes damage the whole time.
  • And my least favorite of the new characters is Morgan.
  • My rating for this I want to I'm kind of My rating for this is a nine because I love tag team and these are six awesome new characters.
  • If I was rating it as a standalone product, I'd probably give it an eight just because I'd be like, 'Oh, you play two characters. I played two characters. Now let's switch out. Oh, there's only two characters left. While with the original one, I felt like there was a lot more like, 'Oh, now we'll play with two new characters. Now we'll do more.'
  • As an expansion is great, 8.5.
  • I don't recommend you start with this one. Even if you love the theming more, I think you just get so much more game from getting the basic box.

Quotes (from this video)
  • I love Confusing Lands. I think it's such a fun little two-player game of trying to just overlay various scoring cards and trying to figure out how to maximize your scoring.
  • Basically, you could just play it as a standalone game. You could expand it to have an epic two-player game, or you could play a three-to-four player game because you now have more cards with this.
  • This is the third game in the Four Shuffled series, a series that I both want more and also really don't want them to go too overboard with it because eventually you can lose your identity.
  • Decision fatigue is a real thing, by the way.
  • For right now, this is still a gift. For right now, I'm still very much excited as evidenced by this being my number one pick.
