I am going to start a sleeping gods play through tonight because it is on my cull list, and I want to at it again before it goes to see if it still has some legs. I only played the campaign once through and really liked it, but haven&#39;t felt like properly going through it again, but also one day I would. It takes up so much space on the shelf and time on the table it either has to get more play, or go. Now we find out for sure which it is.

I played Sleeping Gods for 2 hours last night and had a blast. I do really like this game, I really do. The problem with it is the same as I see with most campaign games though. At 2 hours in, there is likely another 12 to go, and this is a logistical nightmare for me. I only get the time to play big games sporadically throughout the year. I have been blessed with maybe a week of evenings in a row where it is possible for me to play it, but if I didn't have that it would likely not come to the table for another 6-8 months, and at that point I have lost my flow and would need to start again. It is a really good game, but I just struggle to commit this bulk of time to one game night after night. I want to be clear that this is not a negative point against the game. It is just that I never feel like I have enough time to really enjoy it. If the kids were a bit older and I could level this set up on a table and dip in and out I think this game would not leave the table very often until I had found all the totems. As it is though an evening where I have a spare couple of hours to play is rare enough, a string of such evenings is almost unheard of, and when I do find I have a one or two I am usually drawn to playing a big epic like mage knight or memos war that can be digested in one than start a campaign game I might not finish. I am going to finish this one up, and then likely sell it on to put something else on my shelf instead.
