YMMV

Found this at the dollarama on Yonge and Sheppard. Amazon shows $70 listing and box is quite heavy. No idea if its good boardgame or not.

My usual "cut off" for a board game is 7.0 from BGG but for $5 bucks, it might still be worth it if I happen to find one.

5.5 is the BGG rating, 6.8 is the user rating.
The BGG rating takes into account how many people have rated it.
Games that are actually good are rated more and from all appearances this is not a great game.

There is too much randomness, dice rolling and at low player counts there are clunky dead spots. I didn't play it, just browsed the feedback.
Hard pass for me but if someone is a 007 fan then maybe thy will play it a few times.

Damn, only 64 reviews, 21 comments on BGG? Very unpopular, I will tell you that for free. With so few reviews, that 6.8 score doesn't mean much honestly.

Dice Tower said a pretty meh, ok-ish worker placement game.

Art style pretty boring, come on this is 007 can't they at least try harder? Weight 2.5 and time 20-45min, so not a filler game and not the easiest game to teach.

Conclusion: Will probably be in your shelf collecting dust, until you get rid of it in a garage sale. You are not going to gift this to a new board game player. Experience board game players like yourself won't even want this.

I still gave this post a thumbs up, because it is cheap. But this will be pass for me.

Unless the game requires a degree in advanced physics, takes 2 hours to explain & a steep learning curve that appeals to the hardcore top 5%, it'll get mediocre reviews.

Azul, Cascadia, Codenames, Ticket to Ride are all super easy to teach and learn in minutes and are rated near the top on that site and there are many others that are similar in difficulty rated very highly so I really don’t understand your rant.

Have you ever seen a girlfriend or partner you gave a gift to cry? Trust me, those were not tears of joy or positive emotions.

Forget BGG, read some of the posts on here. Board games are serious business.
