Description

The board game This War of Mine is based on the video game of the same name and tells the story of civilians struggling to survive in a besieged, devastated city. Players face difficult decisions and their consequences as the story unfolds through human interactions and group choices. It can be played by 1 to 6 players and includes SCRIPTS and EPILOGUES mechanics, which guide events and bring the story to a close.

During the day, players care for and manage a ruined shelter, clear rubble, search for supplies, and craft items such as beds, tools, and water filters. At night, they guard the shelter and explore dangerous locations for materials, food, medicine, and equipment. The goal is to survive until the hostilities end, with players’ choices shaping the outcome of the story.

    One of the rare cases where the board game is better than the video game.

    Others have already accurately explained what the goal is and roughly how this particular game is played, so I won't tire you with that.

    I will say that here we have an absolute 10/10 in its genre, a game where every playthrough is unique.

    It puts you right in the role and requires thought and communication if you play with two or more players.

    I recommend that while playing, you have the namesake playlist on Spotify, “This War of Mine,” as background music, which adds an incredible layer to the experience

    It is one of the most atmospheric games I have played.
    Its theme is not easy and definitely not for everyone, the goal is survival and you will have to make difficult moral decisions that force you to really think about what a person is capable of doing to survive.
    The game can end in 15 minutes - you can lose before even realizing what happened - or in 5 hours.
    It is a board game, although based on a video game, it can offer you a better experience than a video game.
    Forever in the collection.

    It is simply unique in its kind. Very good game. It literally puts you in the atmosphere of its scenario, which concerns the survival of civilians in a city under siege and enemy bombardments during a war.
    You can start playing without reading the rules as it has a system that guides you, while there are also references to the rules during the game where necessary.
    There is also a companion app for mobile or tablet that helps players during the game's progression. However, the app is not necessary to play.
    A session with this game lasts a little longer than usual, but this is by no means negative because the scenario is very powerful. It can be played with one to six players. I usually play with two people and the average time it takes us for a session is about an hour and a half to two hours.
    If you like cooperative games, it is a representative example of these games.

    It can be played by 1-6 players and has 3 basic scenarios with 1900 variations, which branch out depending on the choices you make, creating an incredible variety that gives the game different situations every time, making it impossible for the player to encounter the same scenario again. The instructions are in English, but I believe they are simple and understandable. The scenarios and their variations are also in English. It also includes 2 instant play scenarios for playing without opening the rulebook. It is a thematic game that creates atmosphere and rewards you by revealing how things are not so easy in difficult survival conditions, and how even the smallest detail has its consequences...

    P.S. Do not consider the "long" completion time as a negative evaluation of the game, as shown below.
