The Verdict
based on 25 reviews
“Undaunted really cool game really fun to play a game it's a campaign as well so you play through sort of a campaign where you get more and more troops and it gets more and more complex so you sort of learn the game as you go and I can really recommend this if you're interested in deck building”
“It's an excellent hybrid deck-builder and tactical game, intermarrying two distinct spheres into a coherent whole and ensuring that the considerations of the one bleed naturally into the other.”
“I can't praise Undaunted enough. It takes two different types of wargame—tabletop tactics and card battling—and seamlessly marries them in a game that's as intimate as it is refreshing.”
“Undaunted Normandy is by far the best war game that they played in a long time I loved it so much it's better than a lot of war games that they played”(12:48)
“And so [Undaunted] Normandy is going to get a 9 out of 10. It is excellent, it's a lot of World War II feelings where the card playing positioning meet each other very well.”(18:58)
“Undaunted: Normandy is an exceptional take on the deck building genre, and an elegant and easy-to-understand tactical combat game, wrapped up in a beautiful package that has quickly become one of my go-to games for WWII squad engagements, especially when playing with more casual players.”
“I am shocked, shocked I say, by how gosh darn good this game is, for how much it hit the sweet spot for this mid-weight Euro gamer. I absolutely consider it a masterpiece, and that's our review.”(9:13)
“I played this game several times now with a few friends. Everybody I've played this game with loved it, and I loved it. This game is amazing, it's astounding.”(9:02)
“Undaunted is a brilliantly accomplished design, offering an engrossing WWII wargame in the guise of an approachable deckbuilder. From its immersive campaign to its tight and tense squad level gameplay, it's a flying success.”
“I think this is also the most entertaining World War II game to come out in 10 years.”(0:33)
“So a lovely two-player battle game that will keep you on the edge of your seat on the on your tippy toes whatever you want to say whatever cliche you want to say um but just a really dynamic battle game”(8:10)
“I think players who enjoy quick tactical skirmish games will really enjoy this one, and it has some cool elements I haven't seen elsewhere, like a bit of deck building that's a lot of fun.”
