Games I Love: Radlands

Sometimes you need a break between playing games of Magic. Maybe you don't want another 3-hour battle cruise slug fest. Maybe there's only two of you and you're waiting on the rest of the pod to show up.

That's where Radlands steps in.

Radlands packs the same edge-of-your-seat, back-and-forth, card battle you love into a tight 20-minutes - without any deckbuilding required.

Set in a neon-lit Mad Max dystopia, Radlands pits your crew of mutants and wastoids against an opponent hellbent on stealing your last drops of water.

The rules are simple. At the beginning of the game you draft three "camp" cards. These are form the back row of your tableau. The first person to destroy all three of their opponent's camps is the winner.

These camps, along with the characters you play to defend them, have special powers that can be used to attack, defend, build, or whatever else you expect a card game to do.

The problem is you never have enough resources to do it all. You start the game with three water to use as resources - and that's it. Every turn, you reset back to three water.

But playing cards takes water. Activating abilities takes water. Raiding the opponent takes water.

Every turn in Radlands, you look across the table to see giant, spikey problems staring back at you. And you don't feel like you can do anything to stop it. You don't have enough resources. Your guys can't activate. You just can't do quite enough...

And they beauty of the game is your opponent is thinking the same thing.

It's a tight game, full of tension. But it packs that tension into a small package. Each player draws cards from a central deck so there's no need to build decks. You just pick it up and play a round...

then play another one...

and another one...

The production quality of the game is sweet. The cards feel good. The cardboard tokens are extra weighty. And the art of vibrant and evocative.

Roxly even made deluxe editions that upgrade to plastic cards and acrylic tokens. I'm sure those are great, but at $15-20 the base game of Radlands might give you the best ROI of any game currently in market.
