1) The base game is $100..really. $60 would be more fair. This is terribly overpriced, especially considering that... 2) The plastic environment pieces come in TWO packs at $26 EACH; $52! They should have been included with the base as it feels incomplete without them. 3) The flying monsters expansion is $20. It's so small (5 pieces and 3 cards) and should be part of the base game. 4) The William Birkin boss expansion comes in TWO packs at $30 EACH; $60! These should be a single $25 expansion at most. 5) The Alligator boss expansion has only one extra monster at $40!! This should just be part of the theoretical "Bosses" expansion with the Birkin pieces. That might justify a $35 price tag. 6) The Survival Horror and B-Sides expansions are $50 each; $100. These are good quality but small enough could easily be one expansion but still not $50, maybe $35 as it's not stand-alone. 7) The $20 4th Survivor box is again not stand-alone and quite small for the price. If it came with the Survival Horror and B-Sides then altogether they could be a solid single $50 expansion. 8) The 3 Monster boxes are just plastic pieces and $20 EACH (one has only 4 pieces!!!)! These should all be in ONE box and then it'd be worth it. Maybe $25. 9) The Alternate Sculpts box is $50! It's just more plastic and should be packaged with the theoretical single Monster Box; that could drive the value to $35. There's about $180 worth of content here, MAYBE $200 if you wanna push it. All this will actually cost $502. No thanks; there are plenty of much better things to spend my money on.

Many thanks, bought the game right after the video!

Probably unrelated I left the jack in the interview room while running away from a licker and now I have no health and one bullet

The nostalgia is strong in this review. Great review Andy! :)

Totally agree RE the components. It’s such a shame the tiles are so dark as the artwork is really nice. I thought there was a lot of wasted space in the boxes too. I ended up making a custom insert (pics on BGG) that housed the core game + survival horror + B-files + 4th survivors + Kickstarter alternative sculpts... and I got everything to fit into the core box!

Yeah I love this I got the kickstart to .that's the only thing I was a little disappointed with was a miniature size. Love to see a paint tutorial how to paint on them

searched for single player board games found this i think i will add it to my collection i currently have dead winter long night and house of betrayal the expansion game

Great review, this is my first board game and i bought it clearly just for nostalgia. You make good points and the biggest downside is the darkness of the tiles and it is stupid cause they put some nice details and efford just to hide everything, truly a shame. Maybe if someone can replicate or even if Steamforged can give us in pdf file to print brighter tiles and stick them above would be great. Another problem that i found is that i have no idea how to put together the map with the color coding they use. I understood that the book indicates just if it is dangerous or not the location but i cannot tell what tiles are being used. Greetings from Greece!

I just bought my copy and 2 expansions. Now I am waiting on my release for part 3. I backed that too

Just pressed buy now on Amazon. Thanks

I’m thinking of picking this up. Getting into tabletop games

I bought the core game, the Survival Horror expansion and the B-Files expansion. I have been replaying the RE games with my young daughter, and she absolutely loves them. This game allows myself and my wife to expand that into our mutual love for board games as well! Yes, some of the components could be better, but you know what, I am more than satisfied with my purchase as it makes for pretty fun family time, and it allows me to share my love of the series with my wife and daughter. :) I look forward to more expansions.

$100 price tag???? Pass........

Great review mate. my first board game and it looks fantastic. I see what you mean about the dark tiles. I was lucky that the store I picked it up in got some Kickstarter exclusives in stock like the alligator expansion and KS exclusive miniatures. I don't have much experience in miniatures, if you were to do a video of a painting tutorial on these miniatures that would be amazing

Yeah I agree it does look a bit cheaply made,are the tiles very thick Andy,do you think they’ll warp in time? Will you be running games of this on the channel? Cheers,Steve.

Crackin' review there and overall it seems very faithful to the original content.

I’m just thinking about supporting Kickstarter RE3 The Board Game... I didn’t played the RE2, and I’m wondering if you would do it? Would you having the experience with RE2, would you pledge for RE3??? Thank you!

A decent, balanced review, Andy, although I personally would've liked to know a bit more about how it plays (rather than how it looks) - does it restrict the players too much? Are there standout moments that make you stand up and take notice? Does it feel like the game drags rather than making you feel that you're involved in the scenario and struggling to escape and stay alive, etc? Keep up the excellent work!

Awesome video as always buddy. Keep up the great work. Between you and the support from my gaming group it's getting increasingly harder to hold up my decision to walk away for a while.

If only there was a nemesis, hunter, and Mr.X in that game

would be nice if they would paint their miniatures or have then have add on stickers to attach to the characters

Yeah shame about the dark artwork as one of the standout features of Resi 1, 2 and 3 were the beautifully crafted environments.

Please dude... It's killing me each time... The game was out on PLAYSTATION first! Like Resident Evil... Eventually the game was out on PC... and Nintendo 64... But I assure you, this gem went out first on Playstation and it was quite dark on our little tv screen.

It's sad that the game turned out with so many flaws... The dark tiles which makes it incredibly dull looking, the crappy doors, lot of the nicer stuff seems to be KS exclusive, and to top it all the retail price here is 90€ (around 103$). I found it in a store yesterday, and I almost bought it, but the tiles looked pretty bad and thank god I waited to see more of the game in youtube...

Thanks for the review, Andy. I like the Resident evil franchise but I'll be giving this one a miss after seeing the pre-order prices.

Thx for the review, I really love the "Playstation" version and this does look very similar given that it's a board game. However I may wait to find it in the "Bargain bin". :>)

Great review mate

Resident Evil board game seems good but I'm in no rush I'll wait until a version 2 with brighter artwork. An chance of showing a painting guide for the original Zombicide survivors from the base game as theres loads of back plague paint vids but no original survivor ones, I now theres a new people myself who would like to see this.

I’m super disappointed with the tiles ! I live in the us and I’m still waiting for my copy .. I hope the game play is good . I don’t think I will be supporting steam forge after this . I was disappointed with their other ks I backed . There are so many great ks projects coming this year and repeats from last year . They are producing better products and games . Thanks for the overview . Subscribed !

Another great video & review. Not a game I will be picking up myself, but I would play it if I got the chance.

Good to hear a NE England accent!

Far too expensive. Especially if you want all the expansion packs.

The tiles too dark and lack variety ughhhh

Great review, cheers Andy. Not one for me but still good to see the level and quality of game pieces. Nothing that can't be enhanced with some plastics tokens.

It's a dog shit game, truly terrible. Completely luck based and unbelievably dull. And this is coming from a huge Resident Evil 2 fan.

Well that sucks guess I'll stick the the deck building game & Resident Evil 2

Nice look

Do I need an app?

More like BOREDgame

Great review Andy... Looks a good game but production definitely let's it down...think it would have to be for core resi fans as there are a lot of this style of game on the market... Kickstarter doors seem to be a popular addition...make the core game doors cheap nasty cardboard...and make nice doors as a cost extra add-on...which should really be in the core game anyway 😡😡😡. Really fare review mate...good job...

No Girl Char in Game !!!! =(

It looks a bit cheap and nasty to me.

Could have been so much more...Sad

Looks great but it's alot of money. Great review though.
