Epic Talisman? That's just normal Sunday playing for us.

Think of this as the bastard love child of Monopoly and Robert E. Howard.

When I describe Talisman to people who have never heard of it before, I usually end the description by saying, "This is basically a cross between Dungeons and Dragons and Candyland ."

We say it's Monopoly meets D&D.
