What the community says about Forbidden Desert
Muy buen juego cooperativo, rápido y sencillo de mecánicas, el que haya diferentes habilidades a cada investigador le da una muy buena rejugabilidad, recomiendo seleccionar al azar a tus investigadores para que algunas veces sea más interesante el juego. A mi hijo le gusta, lo mismo que a mi esposa.
an Ok cooperative with good gaming mechanic, that could be played with non gamers or cassual gamers without much trouble. Better than forbidden island in the execution!
muy entretenido, buen cooperativo pero difícil
Otro cooperativo más, juego difícil en donde el tiempo se acaba y las dunas avanzan. Es un juegazo sin lugar a dudas lo quiero.
2-5 J. (4 mejor). (9-XII-2016). Juego cooperativo con un nivel de dificultad muy bien ajustado. Cometer errores se suele pagar caro.
Love cooperative games and this is one I highly recommend. My favorite gane of the "Forbidden Series".
Played with 5. Felt very easy and didn't give much opportunity for creative decision making. Also can very quickly lead to quarterbacking, the game does not have systems to reduce this. There are better coop experiences out there.
