Feature Review: Freedom Five: A Sentinel Comics Board Game

Freedom Five: A Sentinel Comics Board Game is a co-operative strategy game in which 1- 5 heroes race to protect their home city and its inhabitants from an onslaught of villainy from Baron Blade and his criminal cohorts. Each player must master their character's unique abilities to manage multiple crises throughout the city of Megalopolis. Assemble your friends to face standalone challenges, or mix it up and adventure through a series of campaign comics in which you will gain rewards - and new threats - each session. Immerse yourself in the world of Sentinel Comics and test your wits against a dastardly smart "A.I." in the newest evolution of the Defenders of the Realm series by Richard Launius.
