I played through the current beta of 8-Bit Royale at a local gaming group. Definitely needs some refinement. On the plus side, people seemed to really respond well to the art work. Also a plus, the drafting style of team building seems much better.
On the negative side: some pacing concerns, power balancing (which I expected), and currency imbalance need to be addressed. The overall effect was not a slam-dunk play experience.
A few tweaks to the rules about taking and spending coins will probably address the largest issues. Power balancing is still a little nebulous, though. We'll see how things change after the next rule revisions.
