My Introduction to the Hobby
Rating 
 
3.0
Descent was my first hobby board game. I played it non-stop, for a long time. Once the initial shine wears off, it gets very tedious, with the Overlord constantly stuffing choke points with monsters. It can take an hour to traverse a single dungeon chamber. Killing the wizard over and over gets boring as well.

If you must play it, play it with the Road to Legend expansion. This adds bite-sized dungeons, an overland map, and campaign play. It's very cool. These days though... I'd search for something better.
