Dire Wolf Clank! Catacombs

I love this game! If you have friends able to understand and enjoy playing a deck-builder like Dominion, GET THIS GAME! I enjoyed this game so much I'm getting the Legacy version, Acquisitions Incorporated. The genius of the design of this game is in the tile based map you lay out as play. It makes the game very manageable and replayable once you have the basic understanding of the rules. The rules take abt 30min to watch a video of or explain, and you'll reinforce that as new players get started. It gives plenty of time to setup if you already know the rules. The rules are very similar to Dominion, where you build out a deck that you draw hands of 5 from (which you MUST play all of) that you can play in any order. The cards let you move, fight, or gain cards for resources. The theme is super fun, where you're adventure thiefs trying to be quiet but CLANK!-ing eventually, which risks a bone dragon coming to attack you. This game is a great example of story-telling via strategy and pushing-your-luck, so that players walk away feeling like they had a small adventure with a story they can tell others abt their game, even if they didn't win. The players also lay out the map one tile at a time as they expand outwards, which makes them feel included in the game's setup. I haven't tried the other versions of CLANK! personally, but other accounts suggest to me that this version is the best standalone version to try, as they lack the tile map system that I think is really what made this game fantastic to me.

Great Game. Have bought all the Clank games including Legacy. Very easy to learn and play. Was able to teach my 9yr old niece how to play. No game is identical changes every time. Recommend Expansions to heighten game play. Most games take around an hour to play. Set up takes about 10 minutes. Quality and artwork is nice. Can be played with 2 people. But recommend playing with 3 to 4 people just adds more competition.

Something about the flipping of tiles to discover the paths, treasures and artifacts elevates the base game which had a fixed map from pretty good to great. New mechanics like ghosts, waypoints and especially the lockpick resource add interest to the game without too many new rules. Excellent selection of cards for the dungeon deck, while they may not all fit your needs, there doesn't seem to be a strictly terrible one in the bunch. As a next step I'd give the Adventuring Party expansion a shot mostly for the unique starting decks (not for 5-6 player which is way too much). Game is best with 3 players.

Clank is a great game, and this is our favorite non-legacy version of the game because the board is built randomly each game, which significantly increases the re-playability.

We played the regular clank (still have it) a couple of times in 2021. We really didn’t care for it but kept it due to the uniqueness. We got the original out recently and went nuts over it. We immediately bought catacombs based on video reviews and wow, it’s one of our all time favorite games (even more than the original). We can’t get it off our table (as of today it has been on our table for more than 3 weeks). We picked up Lairs expansion soon and adventure as well. And we bought clank in space (will play soon and clank legacy). It is a fabulous family game for middle school kids (younger if you have a child that has board game genes as I did). I woud have played it at age 8-9. You are only limited with vocabulary on the cards…..it’s a wonderful game.

After playing through Clank! Legacy, we were looking for an upgrade to our many expansions on the base game of Clank! and along came Catacombs. Taking the base game and incorporating the discover your own unique dungeon aspect of the legacy game and delivering a replay-able game. If you have played the original Clank! or Clank! In Space! and are looking to have more variation in the game board to not have such scripted strategies, this game is perfect. More suited for 2-3 players as with 4 players if you are last out of the gate or have a few turns with no movement your are playing along in other player's map instead of discovering rooms yourself which means you will likely end up with the leftovers of these newly discovered rooms being the last one through. Overall a very fun game for anyone who enjoyed the previous Clank! games.

We love board games and this is one is one of our favorites; Deck building and exploring , easy to learn, replayability and super fun. Liked a lot. What makes this version better is the modular board, each game is different.

This is honestly a wonderful addition to the base version of Clank that keeps enough the same, but adds enough new elements to make each playthrough different. Takes a little bit to get used to setting up, but very easy thereafter. Strategy? Nah, just how far are you willing to push your greed, really. I was contemplating between the different available Clank variations, but Catacombs seems to have neatly fallen into the part where it's an inexpensive option and still has plenty of great content. Worry not if you haven't tried the base game of Clank. This version does very well just by itself.

Eine sehr schöne Clank! Variante mit neuen Überraschungen. Hauptaugenmerk ist das variable Setup des Dungeons. Der wird nämlich per Zufall gezogen. Anlegen und ausrichten erfolgt durch den Spieler der das bereits ausgelegte verlassen hat um die Katakomben weiter zu erkunden. Neue Geistersteine machen das Spiel tödlicher und unberechenbarer...

¡Juegazo! Muy divertido y fácil de aprender. Se pone mejor entre más jugadores.

Standalone updated version of Clank! I would say it has more pros (better replayability and less bottlenecks) than cons compared to the original (lack of expansions) on release.
