Had anyone here used one of those?

Whats your impressions?

By the way it's funny - Rex Murphy is devoured at the very beggining if you play with Ye Liveliest Awfulness difficulty card.

These cards and the Personal Stories were not designed with each other in mind, so I'd bet the designer would say that Rex is not devoured, since he loses clues instead of gaining an otherwise meaningless Curse.

No, I feel like they were a cheap way to add a difficulty slider to a game that didn't really need it. A lot of people agree.

I like to play games to submit them to the stats report and only "normal" games will work.

I'm curious if anyone had won with highest diffculty card.

The difficulty level cards just seem like really boring Heralds and Guardians.

I'd rather just play with actual Heralds and Guardians to adjust the difficulty level.

Heralds don't give you points at the end.

Yea, I know, points are just silly, but still.

I do usualy lay out a difficulty card (even if it's just the normal one) + a herald and a guardian. Never tried the most difficult one, but I have made the game easier a few times.

They are there if you want to try them, but if you don't feel you need them, then you probably don't. As you say there are other ways to adjust the game that are more interesting.

Since the card actually mentions Rex by name I would think the intent was not to insta-devour him.

Another interesting combo, Discomforting with Ghatanothoa.
