So, Noah brought over a new to us board game, Invincible The hero building game. We do play a lot of superhero games and this one had intrigued me for some time (I was very close to buying it myself) so I was fairly happy to him show up with it.
 |
| For the first game we used only 3 heroes, that changed to 4 for the next two games. |
The game is pretty straightforward and easy to play. It does convey some feeling that you are in a comic book fight and it offers plenty of options through random car draws and random colour chit draws. Yes there is a lot of random elements to the game, but you can mitigate this to some extent buy selecting the right powers and using certain cards to gain you new coloured cubes.
 |
| Your selected powers are enabled by placing coloured cubes blacks are wild, but draw 5 black cubes and your hero crashes. |
 |
| My characters crashed a lot (drew 5 black cubes) |
So, we lost the intro scenario but then won the rematch and the next chapter in the mini campaign. It was an amusing, lightweight game that I would happily play again.
