Talisman is one of the great love-it-or-hate-it board games. It’s a roll-and-move adventure where you pick a hero, wander a dangerous realm, and race to the Crown of Command in the center of the board, with a dice roll or a bad card ready to ruin your day at any moment. Avalon Hill’s 5th Edition is the first major refresh in years, and it makes a strong first impression. After playing it against the 4th Edition, though, I still reach for 4th Edition when I want a proper Talisman experience.
