Renegade Games Studios Good Omens: an Ineffable Game| Amazon Exclusive| Based on The hit Amazon Original Series | Co-Operative Games for 2-4 Players, Ages 14+

Loved it! I recently got to sit down and play Good Omens - An Ineffable Game, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations. As a big fan of the series and novel, I was thrilled to see the universe brought to life in such a fun and authentic way.First and foremost, the attention to detail in this game is commendable. From the beautifully designed cards to the engaging and accessible gameplay mechanics, every element captures the essence of Good Omens. The illustrations and general design is vibrant and rich, adding to the overall immersive experience.Play time was another highlight for me. Each battle ranges from 15 to 30 minutes, making it perfect for quick gaming sessions, or as it ended up being in my case, multiple rounds in one sitting. This pacing keeps each game feeling exciting without trudging on too long, and allows it to easily fit into any game night!Whether you are a die-hard fan of the Good Omens series or simply enjoy fun tabletop games, Good Omens - An Ineffable Game is a must-have. It delivers a really fun experience while most importantly capturing the spirit of Good Omens.

So I played a couple of the mini-games today with my family (War and Pollution). The reaction so far is definitely meh to bad. I'm not sure who this game is aimed at from a gameplay standpoint. There's not a lot of thematic tie in, and the gameplay is more complicated than fans of basic card games will want and too random for fans of chunkier board games. Apart from the fight against War (which is the card game War with an added push-your-luck element), it's basically a series of poker-based trick-taking mini-games with hidden knowledge and a little bit of luck mitigation through the character abilities. I haven't played hidden knowledge trick-taking games like The Crew, so maybe people that like those games will like this. I do enjoy Whist, Gin Rummy, and Poker when I play them (admittedly rarely), so it's not like I don't enjoy trick-taking games though. Maybe if the game wasn't described so vaguely, more people would have an idea if they are likely to enjoy it before they buy it (personally, I thought it was going to be a deck-building card battler, a genre I enjoy).I could see some of the games being enjoyable if there was a solo mode, but it's designed for 2-4 players and I think the fight against War is the only one you could technically play solo without breaking the rules as written. I may take a stab at solo-izing the rules if I have time, as my family isn't really interested in playing this any more based on the first two mini-games we played. A pity, as I really wanted to enjoy this one.The art is nice though.I'll probably put a full review over on BGG at some point once I've played more of the games, but I really wouldn't recommend that most fans of the book/series rush out and buy this from a gameplay standpoint. It's a pity, because the designers clearly put some thought into making each mini-game different from the others...we just haven't found them much fun this far. (In the event that changes, I'll update this review).

I’m a big fan of the show and also read the book. We found these games fun and have always liked card and trick taking type of games. We’re also fans of some of the other card games by this company like Fox in the forest and Arboretum. The quality of the cards is great with lots of pictures from the show. Can’t wait for season 2!

YAY it arrived in time for girls night! We love this show and had to get this game, it is so beautiful and we had so much fun playing. This will make an appearance at game night again.... maybe when we get together to watch season 2. #teamcrowley
