20 Strong Solar Sentinels

This is the easiest game of the series in my opinion. It's so much fun and a quick take-along. A small boss battler in a box.

Enjoyable and compact! Great for packing along or simply to have smaller things on the shelf. Solid challenge - the strategy varies from game to game based on your selected hero and the randomness of the enemy formations. The art is wonderful, and the quality of the cards is pretty much unparalleled.

I definitely enjoyed this game more than I thought I would. It has a high replay ability value.

Fun, easy to learn, small size!

The good: 1. It's cool idea...a modular solo game with dice and interchangeable card decks. Largely it works from a gaming standpoint and is challenging enough. 2. Small and easily taken with you on the road 3. High quality - Cards are very high quality and you shouldn't need to sleeve them. Dice are nice too. The box is solid and sturdy. The bad: 1. Don't know what ink they used but the cards smell horrible. Like petroleum smell, almost headache-inducing. Seems to be going away over time but big turn off. Takes me a few minutes each time to get over the smell. 2. Price. $40 for a deck of cards and 20 dice? That's a bit steep. Quality is nice, though, but the price for this is on par with a full size board game like Agueda or First in Flight.

I haven't played this yet... It just smells so bad. It's a very chemical-ly smell, though, like moth balls or gasoline, so I was afraid to play it before airing it out because it's not something I wanted to spend too much time breathing in. I have washed the dice but EVERYTHING in the box had the smell. It's currently airing out in my office. I have over 150 games in my collection and i've never had a game smell this bad or this strong. Yes, it's really that bad. The components, though, I was pretty happy with the quality. The box was neat and even had felt in the top and bottom if you wanted to roll the dice in it. The chip with the spinning dial part was a cool touch and felt good quality. The cards are magnificent. I think they're plastic and even have foil on them. Very cool. The dice, though, were a nice try. They're metallic with flake in them but unfortunately the flake comes through on a few of the dice and gives it a rough texture (or even chipped look on some faces) and it's so light on some faces that it makes the object on the face hard to make out what symbol it is. I can tell they were trying to go with a premium product with the dice but it just looks like they were not done properly. I think the dice may be the smell problem, though. I just opened this today so if the smell goes away completely soon, I will update my review. I was very excited to get my first Chip Theory Game and had my eye on Too Many Bones for a long time, but this was a terrible first impression.

What a great little game. So much fun if you like chucking dice. Good quality, good price, and a whole lot of fun.

Grandson and friends love it!
