Woooo hoo alright. Jumanji is here. I was not expecting to see a game based on the OG Jumanjo here for sure, but happy toi see it and oh god it is chaotic. How the heck are you supposed to survive. I managed just barely with 8 health somehow.
Ignoring the Jumanji reference for a moment though gameplay wise it was.. interesting. Definitely not entirely Jumanji, but there's a cool base for some sort of manic survival game here. Though, a bit more variety in the stuff that can happen would help, the quotes are great though when you see them on the game board. It definitely fits the original style.
Also I do feel like it would be interesting to add a mechanic where you can move the board and avoid the consequences with the environment, which currently does not seem to work. At least from what I experienced of the lightning hitting me through the nearby building. Which I was not expecting especially since the quote mentioned staying out of the rain to avoid it so I assumed it would stick to that. Although, it is Jumanji and it could just make a storm in the middle of the house so... yea.
Overall though happy to see a Jumanji reference, interesting to play game. Absolutely manic to actually survive and hilarious to attempt. But... there's no drums. Where are the drums.
Jumanji, needs... drums!!!
