The Yawning Portal

Working in the Yawning Portal Tavern of Waterdeep can prove rather profitable, provided you know which gems to go for!
Serve the patrons what they want and take your tips, hoping to be a most popular server of the evening as you compete against other players, or just the game in solo mode (as yet unplayed).

This proved to be a lot of fun, with an amusing atmosphere and worked very nicely at two players, the recommended count according to BGG.

Linda

Pros:

  • Quick to set up and play
  • Easy to learn
  • Fun scoring, as the points can change quickly

Cons:

  • Not sure I got a D&D feel from it nor the characters. Feels like they are just using the licens for the sake of it

Steven

Pros:

  • Quick turns
  • Ever changing scoring potential, that one can manipulate
  • Great tactile play with chunky gems being cast around the table

Cons:

  • Some rules could be a bit more specific
  • Could the game be a little too short? More plays needed.
