На выходных попробовали настольного Ведьмака, и у меня скорее положительные впечатления. Самое худшее точно не случилось: это не просто коробка с миниатюрками, а вполне работоспособная и интересная настолка.
Ядро игры — сражения на цепочках карточек, и вот эта часть порадовала больше всего. Битвы с монстрами интересные, в меру разнообразные, не слишком простые, сильно зависят от подготовки. В каком-то смысле из-за этого вся остальная игра в виде приключений на карте и прокачки навыков кажется неизбежной рутиной между боями, но с точки зрения эмоциональных качелей — самое то.
Из недостатков большинство обзорщиков отмечают даунтайм — то есть длительное ожидание хода других игроков. Могу сказать, что даже при игре на пятерых это не супер критично. У нас самые нетерпеливые игроки начали скучать только на последнем ходу, когда исход партии был решён.
Пожалуй, к серьёзным проблемам я бы отнёс отсутствие разных стратегий победы. По сути, способа выиграть два: получать очки за прокачку навыков и получать очки за сражения с монстрами. Причём, в нашем случае выиграл игрок с помощью первого варианта, ни разу за всю игру не подравшись с монстром, что вызывает вопросы к балансу. Хотя, как мы впоследствии выяснили, выиграл он с нарушением правил, но общая тенденция напрягает.
Отсутствие стратегий снижает реиграбельность, однако дополнительный контент повышает её, а его то как раз в коробке очень много. Мы едва ли пощупали четверть от всего. Так что с учётом кучи контента, шикарных миниатюрок и прекрасно работающего боевого ядра — очень рад иметь в коллекции эту игру, уверен, соберёмся ещё не раз. Наверное, опытный геймдизайнер мог бы взять и "обезводить" её, выпустив какую-нибудь карточную дуэльку, где были бы только механики цепочек из драк. Но у текущей версии значимый плюс это привлекательность для казуальной аудитории.

Alhamdulillah, I finished writing this book in few days.
I wrote this book to help my friends:
Nurkhankyzy Aiya, Acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
and all those children who are fighting for their lives.
Why is the book called that? AIYA MMD - means Attack and Introduction or (Android and IOS), start Your Adventure in Mobile Malware Development. also AIYA means AIYA Nurkhankyzy.
I will be very happy if this book helps at least one person to gain knowledge and learn the science of cybersecurity. The book is mostly practice oriented.
Of course the book is not as big as my previous works, this is because firstly I needed to urgently start a fundraising campaign for the Aiya and secondly many things remain confidential (NDA)
Mobile malware - it's a constantly evolving battlefield. What you learned here is just the beginning. Tools change, defenses adapt, but the mindset stays the same: think like the adversary to build stronger defenses.
This book is dedicated to my wife, Laura, and my children, Yerzhan and Munira. I would like to express my deep gratitude to my friends and colleagues.
Special thanks to #Russian#hacking#community, Medet Turin 2600.kz, BlackIce #hackerspace from Almaty (Kazakhstan) and my friends from Middle East countries: Kingdom of Bahrain, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, UAE.
All examples are practical cases for educational and research purposes only.
