I agree, DC Comics-Deck Building Game is in my opinion a success!Bought, Legendary first, mainly for solo play, although; I find that the solo play is absolutely horrible and downright boring! Much too easy, have not tried a player developed variant yet, or played with 2 or more, so will not comment further on those issues. (By the way, I do not think that a player should have to develope a viable variant, the original developer should have addressed this issue)!
That being said, I LOVE DC COMICS DECK BUILDING GAME! This game was never advertised as solo, as Legendary was advertised. And I am sure that I can get any of my friends, gamers or not, to play DC! And, I suspect many will enjoy it and want to play again. (FYI: My friends and I are not familiar with comic universes). But theme seems to fit well.
Really, disappointed in Legendary. Solo is extremely easy, so much so, it was not worth taking out of the box to even set up, no matter how many included rules were recommended for raising the solo difficulty. Really confused about the number of recommendations that this game gets for solo play.
On the other hand, DC has great art, easy rules, and does not claim to play solo! Just feel that Legendary got unwarrented hype, and DC in my opionion is the superior game!
My Advice: If you are on the fence about purchasing one of these comic themed games, it is a no brainer, go with DC Comics DECK BUILDING GAME!!! Yes simpicity is a sucess, although Legendary rules are simple also. (I do play Lord of the Rings LCG solo, it is difficult to win (play wise, not too difficulut rule wise, but highly enjoyable, even when you lose, which will be often)! Sorry for rambling on.
