## Description

In Roll Player: Monsters & Minions, not only do players compete to construct the greatest fantasy characters, they must also gather information about the monstrous threat looming, and prepare for a final showdown against the beast. The more prepared the adventurers are for the battle, the better they'll do, but that information doesn't come for free. Listen for rumors to gather details for the fight ahead. Where is its lair? What obstacles will there be along the way? What will its next strike be? Players earn Reputation Stars by constructing the perfect character, as well as driving back the evil of the monster and its minions. The player with the greatest Reputation wins the game and becomes the heir to the kingdom!

Review: FANTASTIC Game That mixes Euro-game and AmeriTHRASH Brilliantly with an Awesome Theme! - Role Player is a incredibly fun game about making a D&D character (w/o the license of course). The game is neck deep in theme. You even get a character sheet....er.....board, a character class, race, alignment and even a background! Neat! At it's core, the game is about dice manipulation and placement to earn VPs and/or gain special abilities. Placing dice to increase your stats give you a one time special action, which depends upon which stat you increased (each stat 'power' is different), and each class has a list of prime stats that you get VPs for each stat you match. Role Player then throws in cards (in the form of armor, swords, magic items, etc) that give you even more abilities, ways to gain VPs and so forth! Added to that, your character gets a "background" which allows you to score even more VPs by placing colored dice on certain spaces on your character sheet....er......board! You can score even more points by manipulating your alignment through a cube that moves towards evil, good, law and chaos depending on your actions!! Furthermore, the color of your dice (and equipment cards are also color coded!) and your character class (each class is color coded) can add even more VPs if your match them at the end of the game! AAAHHHHH!!! So many choices, so much strategy!! But the game is simple and easy to teach! If you ever rolled up a character in a paper and pencil RPG, you will LOVE this game. If you like Euro/AmeriTHRASH hybrid board games, you will love this game. If you love games with LOTS of dice, you will love this game! GET IT!
Review: Unexpectedly amazing! - When I saw the name of this game I was immediately turned off. The cover art didn't help it either. The description of the game didn't sound interesting: just make a character...the end--really??? It's also a dice placement puzzle game--and I hate puzzle games. So I passed on it over and over. Then it appeared in a number of top 10/20/X solo game videos I watched, so I became intrigued. I watched some video reviews of the game and the reviewers talked about how surprisingly fun the game is. The Monsters & Minions expansion was recommended also, so I decided to get that at the same time because I figured I would want to do more than just make a character--I would want to do some fighting also. I was hesitant about the fact that the expansion cost almost as much as the game. After having played the game without the expansion, then adding the expansion, I can say that the game by itself was amazing! It was easy to learn, with a simple game loop, but the variety and interaction between the cards, abilities based on choices you make, and the roll of the dice make this a simple game to learn with deep and complex strategy. I was almost overwhelmed by the complexity of the strategy at first and suffered from some analysis paralysis. The multitude of ways to win made me give up trying to min-max every turn and just go with my gut--that made it more fun. The expansion adds to the variety, adds more (but still simple) game mechanics, ways to win, and has the added bonus of letting your character actually do something (other than going shopping): fighting monsters! Was the base game worth its cost? YES! Was the expansion worth its cost? YES! Can you play this game solo and have fun? YES! (I played it "solo" by playing 2 characters using the 2-player game rules, but it also has actual solo play rules where you play 1 character and the dice simulates the actions of another player). I recommend you watch some video reviews that show how the game is played, before you decide whether to buy it or not.

*by E***T on April 5, 2018*

This is a great game whose simple mechanics hide a cascade of strategic decisions that you will find yourself struggling to make, just to eek out one more Reputation Star. From the random luck of a die-roll to the many manipulations you will perform to get everything just right, this game is brilliant. It takes up a bit more space on a table than I thought it would, but it is by no means a large game. Merely bucked my expectations. In spite of that, and all the dice involved, the game is clean and easy to set up and put away. The premise is a novel one: as players, you are literally creating a character for a table top RPG. The game presents you with a character archetype, including Race, Class, Alignment, and Backstory. Through the purchase of skills and equipment, and the clever manipulation of the dice you are presented with, your goal is to earn Reputation Stars by meeting the various requirements that are scattered across the Class, Alignment, and Backstory cards. In the end, whoever satisfies more of these goals and earns the most Reputation Stars wins. Obviously I can't do it justice here, but this is a great game. It has a Yahtzee type of feel to the pace, but with even more decisions to make and ways to bend the dice to your will. I've only played it with one other person, so I can't comment on 3 or 4 player games. Player interaction is minimal, but it is meaningful. You can directly ruin someone else's day, or you can be oblivious and let your opponent run rampant and embarrass you with their score. You can easily make the wrong decision with your dice; but when you finalize the placement of a crucial die you've spent a few turns manipulating and moving, it is satisfying. Highly recommended.
