Has anyone played Avalon Hill's "Monsters Menace America"? For those of you that have never heard of it, it's a board game where players choose one of six kaiju (Godzilla clone, King Kong clone, Hedorah clone, Giant Mantis, Floating Eye, or Giant Crab) and then one branch of the armed forces. Each player must do their best to destroy major US cities in order to become more powerful, while using their military units to weaken their opponents. Players may visit locations like Three Mile Island and Roswell to obtain mutations which will better their character. In addition, the military my sacrafice units in an attempt to upgrade their branch. Some upgrades are frivolous like "laser fence" and "blonde lure" which restrict monster movements, but others like "Mecha-Monster" and "Captain Colossus" give the military a useful edge by providing them with a giant robot and giant soldier. Everything about the game is a perfect nod towards the giant monster genre, both US and Japanese. If you can find this game, or know someone who has it, give it a try!

I don't think you'll be disappointed. According to Amazon it's $24.98, about half the price of Godzilla Kaiju World Wars or Monsterapocalypse (both of which I have not played, therefore I cannot vouche for). I can certainly say that I have gotten hours of enjoyment out of MMA, and it's a great game to play with your kids, if you have any. My oldest son is seven, and he loves playing games with me. The rules are fairly simple, set up is quick, combat is easy (Defender has a defense number. Attacker rolls dice and hopes that the number is equal to or greater than defender's number.) playing pieces look nice, and playing time is limited. My son and I used to play Axis and Allies together. He was quite proficient for his age, and he enjoyed the game, but it has potential to go on for hours, days even. With MMA you're looking at MAX 90min. |
