Iello's Welcome to the Dungeon is a micro dungeon crawler by Masato Uesugi and Paul Mafayon with push-your-luck elements and disappearing equipment. During each round of Welcome to the Dungeon, players bid to see who gets to take a solitary hero into the dungeon with a combination of equipment. On your turn you can either add monsters to the dungeon, remove equipment from the hero, or drop out of the bidding. The last player in the bidding takes the adventurer into the dungeon and confronts all the monsters that have been placed this round, with what little equipment the adventurer has left. If you traverse two Dungeons successfully, you win the game; however, if you fail in two Dungeons, you will be eliminated. Thus, you can also win the game by being the last player left in the game. Dare your opponents to tackle the dungeon with less and less equipment to fend off the increasing horde of monsters? Suitable for 2-4 players aged 10 and up with a playing time of around 30 minutes. Part of the IELLO mini-games range. Great for gaming on the go! Not suitable for children under 3 years Review: I have been playing love letter for a while now - I have been playing love letter for a while now, love letter is great, it can be used as a good starter to an evening to get people in the boardgaming mood or to play when you have a few minutes with friends.... anywhere, even down the pub or at the office. this is the closest to that I've come to since... this is basically Chicken in a card game for 2-4 players, firstly you pick the character the team wants to play with, there are 4 to choose from and each has different abilities but you only play with one per round for everyone. you lay the character out on the table with his 6 equipment cards and then shuffle the 13 monster cards. then each player takes it in turn to either pass the round or draw a monster card. if they draw a card they remain in play for the round and then decide if they wish to place the monster into the dungeon or to take it out of the dungeon and remove one of the 6 pieces of equipment from the hero making the hero weaker. if all players pass the last player left has to venture into the dungeon with any remaining equipment the hero may have. if he kills all the monsters in the dungeon he takes a scroll, If he gets two he wins the game, if he fails he takes a wound, if he takes two then he is out of the game. this may not sound that exciting on paper but basically it comes down to trying to remember what you have put in the dungeon with what equipment is left and if you take too much away then you may find that its you going in with nothing more than a torch and a prayer.... this game is quick, easy to learn and ultimately fun to play as you try to judge what each of your friends has done. on its own this game is fantastic and I cant recommend it enough it comes in a small box and can also be played almost anywhere.... is it as good as love letter? On face value, no. love letter is easier to carry, cheaper, quicker and even more simple..... however since they are both so cheap my recommendation is to buy both. why choose between the chocolate gateaux and the cheesecake when you can get both Review: Fun, quirky card game - A great quick game to play and easy to make your own variant rules and our 7 year old soon picked a favourite. Great quaity cards, nice artwork, a simple yet subtle game which is fun to get into.

Fun, quirky card game
A great quick game to play and easy to make your own variant rules and our 7 year old soon picked a favourite. Great quaity cards, nice artwork, a simple yet subtle game which is fun to get into.

Depends on the players, Can be a great Ice Breaker
This game is only as exciting as you make it. Here you have a typical micro game that plays fairly quickly and which can be a lot of fun. Players first choose one of four role playing characters and then bid on taking that character into the "dungeon" and working their way through a stack of enemies (represented by a monster deck). The chosen character starts off with 6 pieces of equipment but the bidding process could mean that the eventual winner will have to tackle the dungeon with fewer pieces of equipment.

Tiny, easy to play and quick.
Good quick fire game that comes in a dinky little box. Would make a good stocking filler.

Very good, Very fast.
Nice easy game, good micro game to play to start a board games night. easy to learn fast to play nice balancing, it rewards risk with victory. pretty looking game and fits in your pocket to pull out and lose friends at any point. Combines the best bits of Munchkin and Boss Monster and lasts about 10 minutes per game. Also good for first time board gamers Game play 6/10 Art 8/10 Learning 9/10 length 9/10

Quality components made to last.
(Not a review of the game play, which is a matter of taste. See boardgamegeek for that kind of thing). The quality of the game is stunning for £10. The cards are white-bordered so they'll last longer without giving themselves away. The card tokens are the best I've ever seen. I wouldn't call this a microgame, however. The box is large paperback, trash-fiction sized.
