Summary
As much as I enjoy Grimslingers overall, this expansion is a real chore to fathom due to the sheer awfulness of the enclosed rulebook. Changes are made to the core dueling which didn't have to be made and only four of the Grimslingers from the core game get a revamp. Life is made much easier (and you can play the original campaign with the new rules) only if you download the app for the game, yet the app isn't available for iOS. I'm not a fan of having to resort to an app in order to understand how to play a game. The art is still awesome and the setting coolly bizarre but you'll need to be a major fan of Grimslingers to want to deal with a new rules presentation which requires a lot of online searching to figure out.
