@sundancer and then sharing your findings, right?
(right….?)

In other news, I’ve very nearly been tempted by a Kickstarter.
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/kozz/dark-tomb-bloodthorn-island?ref=discovery&term=dark%20tomb
The play-through videos (of the original game, which you can also pledge for) look interesting; a proper-old-school no-messing-about dungeon crawler.

The new Kickstarter is just a variation on the original theme, but I quite like the co-op aspect of it and the small sized reveal-as-you-go map – it reminds me of those old computer games, where you’d move from room-to-room, fighting monsters. I quite fancy getting hold of it and then just scaling the map up and using minis instead of tiny wooden blocks. But that it plays so well even without minis suggests that the gameplay is pretty solid. About £35 gets you the original and new release which doesn’t seem unreasonable.

Has anyone played the original Dark Tomb? Any thoughts?
