The rules for DS Origins where developed with some solid solo / co-op in mind, while with the first Dungeon Saga they where a clumsy afterthought. DS Origins also comes with a web-app for solo play. The app is just a "simple" digital adventure book. You play by all the solo rules and AI monster cards included in the game, and only use the app to reveal rooms one by one, and to see the start positions of enemies. That's it. The App is not intelligent and will not run the game for you like the HQ app. It will try to stay out of the way and let you play your board game.
Two games that are great in their own right for different reasons, but yes I defintely think Mantic went back to drawing board with the Dungeon Saga brand and made great improvements with Origins. And the minis are greatly improved. Love your video covering this, but can I recommend the background music be toned down just a hair? Just constructive criticsm that isn't meant to be taken asbeing mean.
You are totally wrong about the value of this. The minis are so much better and gameplay is very good as well. The empty tray is a nice touch as well. It is used for tokens and if you want to sleeve your cards. I can't see a problem with this.
@@AndreasRugtvedNeumann "the empty tray is a nice touch" yep folks he said that.....i hav all the original sagas the small minis were flimsy the large ones? Nothing in this box compares. I'll send u 20 empty trays for 40$
@@TableTopTransformer I don't know what that is in dollars...my point is this is a cheap knockoff of the original..they couldn't even hire n artist for those tiles
Figures are head and shoulders above the old ones.

I have the original. I got in on the Dwarf kings hold, too.
I have a metric ton of them from the KS when they first came out.

Thanks for the feedback. I’ll be sure to tone down the music.
great video!
Great video thank you
The mins look a lot like Blacklist miniatures in style, color and packaging.
Hey there. I just got my copy, how did you come to store the components in the box? A bit confused 😂
Thanks for your video 🤝🏼. Is this Legendary edition from Kickstarter or a retail purchase?
This was a Kickstarter but is on pre-order Miniature Market as well as the core game. I will be reviewing the game soon.
super video. thank you. what is the music you use?
Hello, I purchase licensed music from Pond5.com. The editing app I use also has music that I've used on my earlier videos. Thank you for watching.
Will you give a review once you've played a game? Please.
I most certainly will. Stay tuned.
I bought the Original Dungeons Saga & 1 expansion these Minis look a vast improvement
Is this the retail or KS version?
This is the KS version. In my review video, I show what you get in the retail core game.
@@thefantasyskirmisher3894 So, in the retail/shops version I will get the same content?
👍🙏
The minis from Dungeon Saga are very poor these are a vast improvement.
I like the old ones more
I had to rewind it to see if i imagined they shipped n empty try...they did.. this is a cheap version of the first game...50$ tops for this game

I'm not entirely sure what your point is, but the base game for this will be £50
