Interested to know what you didn't like about Mice & Mystics.
There were quite a few things actually.
The whole 'cheese' thing didn't work for me as a mechanic, you roll cheese (no control over) and get more and do other stuff and more pops up on the enemy wheel thing, I get it all but just felt very wonky.
It's a pure Co-op. I much prefer 1 vs many myself for this type of game, so that didn't help.
None of the scenarios we played felt repeatable at all, it all felt one-shot which didn't appeal.
It was very story-driven, I'm much more in the Diablo camp rather than the Tales of Arabian Nights camp.
Wasn't a deep experience, I appreciated some of the design and theme but it felt very shallow, not something I want in a game of this type.
Overall just didn't do much at all for me personally and felt very much aimed at kids.
