    Rating: 7Reviewed By: Captainlunchbox03/21/2013
    Summary ReviewA decent, frantic game based around minute-to-minute crisis management. You play as a gnomish (Russian gnome) sailor. You are part of a crew in a submarine that is in danger of sinking as all of its systems fail.
    Detailed ReviewThe name of the game here is desperation. It is a cooperative board game with miniatures, cards, and tokens. It's kind of comical in its own way, but the group I played with found it to be just a bit frustrating for their tastes. After one or two plays, the game hasn't made it to the table since. Make sure your gaming group is up for a challenge before you buy this game. Otherwise, you may regret it.

    The components for this game are very well made and look really good. Of course, as per Fantasy Flight Games' pedigree, the miniatures are sculpted well and of good quality construction. The art on the board and the cards has a sort of cartoon-ish quality that is meant to give the impression that this is a lighter game. I find that to be a bit deceptive, however. The game is a fair bit complicated, and, as is the case with all Fantasy Flight Games products- the rules are poorly organized and explained. Complication for complication's sake is frustrating and needless.

    Each player turn is spent taking various actions. Some cost time and courage. You might be running to redirect the flow of water to flood another chamber. You could down some liquid courage and attempt to extinguish the electrical fire. One of the flaws and imbalances sees a player putting on scuba gear at the last minute and swimming away, leaving everyone to lose in the downed sub as they swim to victory. Fairly disappointing overall.
