![]() I feel confident in saying no ginormous three hour long tabletop game has ever enticed people outside the hobby with such ease. The massive box is gorgeous and the table presence towers above any other. Whether in its box or out on the table, if RTDT exists in the same space as you, you’re going to notice it. This time I am starting with production! It’s the first thing you’ll see in this review because RTDT is the first thing you’ll see. Now the four kingdoms must embark their heroes once more to evict the fiend from their precious tower! But a new tenant has taken up residence, and they’re not paying rent! Even worse, they’re dropping their garbage everywhere. Several years passed as the four kingdoms raked in that sweet lordship dough. The four kingdoms agreed to lease the tower and split the ownership. ![]() But alas, the real estate was just too valuable. Other’s suggested they take up residence themselves. ![]() Due to the central location, some proposed to destroy the tower and establish a trading hub instead. In the aftermath, the issue of what to do with the tower sparked much debate. Together, after much fraught and peril, the four heroes defeated Azkol and restored peace to the realm. Fearing for their very way of life, each kingdom sent their chosen hero to brave the tower. As his power grew, so too did his dark influence obfuscate the land. An evil sorcerer named Azkol once constructed a luxurious tower at the heart of the four kingdoms. “What even is RTDT?” you ask? Well, sit down kiddo, let me tell you a story. I believe RTDT’s social seismic activity will match or even surpass its predecessor. The original Dark Tower made waves during the height of the role-playing craze of the 80’s, and even had its own commercial starring Orson Welles! From what I’ve seen surfing the webs, nostalgia for Dark Tower thrives to this day, and RTDT’s existence stands as a testament to Dark Towers cultural reverberations. Yeah, I’m calling it now, Return to Dark Tower (RTDT) will be a significant event in the boardgame timeline. (An important note for this review, as I am but a young baby boy, I have absolutely zero nostalgia for the original.)
