Readers of this blog will remember I very much liked Steamforged Games’ Resident Evil 2 board game. I think it was very true to the license and I love all the little details it was crammed with while still being a fun board game in its own right. Since then I also got the Survival Horror Expansion, which adds even more detail and some PVP modes based on plot points only mentioned in files and flashbacks. Interestingly, those PVP modes play sort of like precursors to the multiplayer game Resident Evil: Resistance over a year before that game was made. I regretted missing its Kickstarter by a mere week.
I did not make that mistake again with their Devil May Cry board game, nor their RE3 one, for that matter. After several delays due to the pandemic, Devil May Cry: The Bloody Palace and all its expansions came into my possession. Unfortunately, also due to the pandemic, I couldn’t find people to play it with to write this review sooner. It has a solo mode, but I don’t consider it a thorough review without knowing how it plays with others. Having now played with some others and by myself, I can confidently give my full thoughts.
