This game is really cool... if you're as big of a Princess Bride fan as I am. I love the innovative use of the situations of the film in a card game. Essentially, you place tiles to mark the obstacles on the way to, well, storming the castle. These tiles include the pit of despair, the cliffs of insanity, and other locations from the film. You use cards from your hand to help you get through the obstacles, make more obstacles for the other player, or get more/different cards. The first one to get past all their tiles to the castle is the winner! I really enjoyed the game, but the rest of my family (who enjoy the film, but haven't seen it the bazillion and a half times I have; nor have they read the book) was only humoring me by playing. The game is pretty complicated to get started, especially if you don't have a solid grasp on all the aspects of the film. I would only recommend this if you are a HUGE fan, and if you know other big fans who would enjoy this type of game.
