Bionicle game
|
We had a nice trip to the market town of Diss today, and we always enjoy a browse of the charity shops while we're there. Today in the Oxfam shop we came across the Lego Bionicle Adventure Game: Quest for Makuta for a mere £2.99.

The blurb on the back.

Number 1 son (7 years old next month) has enjoyed playing with my Bionicle stuff for the last couple of years and he didn't need much persuasion to spend his saved up pocket money on this rather than some bit of useless tat from one of the other shops.

Mata Nui.
|
The game comes with a set of neat jigsaw fit hex tiles, shown here assembled as the island of Mata Nui, home to the Bionicle Toa (player characters).

Counters/tokens. |
The components are decent quality, nice thick card stock. It's a shame the playing pieces are plastic pawns with card inserts instead of actual plastic figures. I suppose I could always order some of the Bionicle Hordika minifigures which are quite cheap (and the right colours, though not exactly the correct shape), but I'll wait and see how the game plays first.

Bionicle Guide
|
I was asked to get out my Bionicle guide (a previous 50p Charity shop find) so we could have a look at some of the glyphs and try to translate them.

With any luck, we might get a chance to try playing the game tomorrow!
I love games with modular maps. Nice find!
ReplyDeleteI do as well, probably used to spend longer putting together maps for Mighty Empires and Space Hulk than I did actually playing the games!
