Medieval: Jan Žižka - Review of the family game accompanying the movie

The 2022 star-studded Czech film Jan Žižka (or Medieval for international distribution) received mixed reviews from audiences and critics. And while it didn't live up to its ambitions as a globally successful big budget film, it was given the complementary features of a true Western big budget film.

We'll have to wait for the video game Žižka, but the board game from Albi was released just in time for Christmas 2023. I'm not going to lie - I went into the game Jan Žižka: Medieval by Petr Vojtěch and Jindřich Pavlásek thinking that it would probably be some quick-fire crap that wants to ride on the "popularity" of the brand, as it sometimes happens with these games. But to my great and pleasant surprise, it's a really good game!
