This is a fun, cooperative game which is quite different to other games I have played. Everyone is involved all of the time as you can do things during other people's turns. I have played it for a few hours and am looking forward to continuing the adventure.

Such a great game! Easy to learn—the intro scenario does a great job of showing you how to play and the value is FANTASTIC. At least 20 hours of play in a single campaign. And so replayable.
5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Game I've Ever Played

This game is incredible. The depth of the writing and the game mechanics, for me, is unmatched. I've played solo all the way up to four players, and while every iteration is different in terms of how the game 'feels,' it never felt dry. The stories in the game are written with wit, humor, and surprising depth; and after multiple campaigns, I've learned how going in multiple directions within the Wandering Sea can somehow still lead you back to old friends, both those in the game and that you play with.
The sequel comes out soon, and I can't wait to return to the Wandering Sea there too!
5.0 out of 5 stars This is the best board game I've ever played

If you like board games, it's definitely worth playing, I played first time with my friend after I got it (we played it for 13 hours). The story is great and logical, I thought the combat would be boring, but after the first fight, I think it's the best combat mode I've ever played. The manual is not short and contains a lot of content, but the process is not complicated.
Overview:
Explore the massive open world with a game atlas of connecting maps (26 pages in total) as you level up your crew members over a 10-20 hour campaign.
Cooperative play allows players to jump in or out with ease, and the flexible game system allows you to stop and save your game at any time.
Fight ferocious beasts with a unique diceless combat system that rewards good planning.
Story decisions have deep and lasting consequences. A village might burn to the ground because you want to protect your crew. A desperate captain might seek revenge when you can’t help rescue his wife. The game includes hundreds of quests, each with multiple outcomes.
Complete multiple campaigns to fully explore and unlock the secrets and hidden treasures of Sleeping Gods. Its accompanying novel-length storybook is filled with danger, discovery, and intrigue.
Note: Standard Game does not include metal coins, but are available as a premium add-on.

"Are the stars unfamiliar here?" she asked, and the sky grew suddenly dark, the star's patterns alien and exotic. "This is the Wandering Sea. The gods have brought you here, and you must wake them if you wish to return home."
In Sleeping Gods, you and up to 3 friends become Captain Sofi Odessa and her crew, lost in a strange world in 1929 on your steamship, the Manticore. You must work together to survive, exploring exotic islands, meeting new characters, and seeking out the totems of the gods so that you can return home.
Sleeping Gods is a campaign game. Each session can last as long as you want. When you are ready to take a break, you mark your progress on a journey log sheet, making it easy to return to the same place in the game the next time you play. You can play solo or with friends throughout your campaign. It's easy to swap players in and out at will. Your goal is to find at least fourteen totems hidden throughout the world. Like reading a book, you'll complete this journey one or two hours at a time, discovering new lands, stories, and challenges along the way.
Sleeping Gods is an atlas game. Each page of the atlas represents only a small portion of the world you can explore. When you reach the edge of a page and you want to continue in the same direction, you simply turn to a new page and sail onward.
Sleeping Gods is a storybook game. Each new location holds wild adventure, hidden treasures, and vivid characters. Your choices affect the characters and the plot of the game, and may help or hinder your chances of getting home!
Welcome to a vast world. Your journey starts now.
