![]() ![]() Next is the adventure phase where each player has six time cubes to spend investigating rumors, hacking bots, doing chores, and trying to get home in time for dinner. Move the bots and resolve any firmware upgrades or state changes. Draw a school card and place the new rumors, then the first player resolves the school event. The dice and some of our favorite tokens. They all have really nice art and look very good. I really like some of the specialty tokens though. One of my players liked them because they looked like the erasers they used back in school, but I’ve never seen an eraser like that so I can’t relate. The robots are pretty iconic pieces in the Loop art, and I think they really lose something by not being painted.Īnd the deluxe edition minis are so pretty. While I do enjoy painting minis, I’m not super keen on this. In the standard edition the minis come unpainted. The minis go under the big machine cards. There is some empty space (some of which is reserved for expansion content) but I can’t figure out if we’ve mismanaged packing it up or if there is generally more space than necessary.Ĭharacter boards were removed to show the compartments underneath. I don’t think we figured out how everything is supposed to fit, but it does fit. Like another game I reviewed, Final Girl, the insert has so many compartments that I was a little confused at how everything is supposed to fit in the box. There are also various bits that go with other things, such as mounts for the standees, stickers to tell the machines apart, and stuff to attach the dials to the board. Of those, 7 are scenario cards, 38 are diary cards, 12 are machine response cards, 20 are school cards, 20 are chore cards, 20 are items, 20 are anomalies, and 111 are rumor cards. The games comes with 9 standees, 8 dice, 6 machine minis and sheets, 8 dice, 143 assorted tokens,45 time cubes, 5 favor cubes, 35 general counter cubes, 8 character boards and trait tiles, 9 event tiles, 2 dials, 2 summary sheets, a rulebook, a setting book, the game board, and 248 cards. Free League was kind enough to send me a free copy to review. In it, 2-5 players play a group of kids in the ‘80s solving various sci-fi mysteries. Tales From the Loop is a board game from Free League publishing based on the art book of the same title by Simon Stålenhag. ![]()
