The game is quite successful and offers for fans of the book series much recognition. The pieces are made of wood or cardboard, and overall the game looks very high quality. The rules are fairly simple for a strategy game of this kind, but this offer but a complexity that makes every game different. The luck factor is kept small, the few random events affect overall players. After the first few games, it seems like it would quickly work out hard for one player such a great advantage that he had already won an early stage, so the games to be exciting until the end. Conclusion: A very nice game, recommended not only for fans of the books.
