Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • ATO is my favorite game of all time
  • I think it’s probably ATO, but only just. Both of these are in my top 5 all time favourites.
  • Aeon has the best written story in board gaming
  • The ICP system that ATO uses has caused so many fights to be on a knifes edge and created the most tension and pop off moments I have experienced in a boss battler.
  • Fantastic game that is roughly equivalent to Kingdom Death: Monster plus several expansions in terms of scope.

Cons

  • ATO is my favorite game of all time, and I'm happy to admit that the components have many unforced errors, the rulebook is an absolute shitshow, no two groups of people in the world are playing by exactly the same rules, etc.
  • For ATO I have watched Shelfside review and from Rulebook is a mess, real mess.
  • whereas *Aeon Trespass: Odyssey* has an average rating of 9.025, but a far smaller number of ratings (2,460), so its Geek Rating is 6.904 (and it's ranked number 587 overall).

It is a tough team based boss battler with monster part harvesting, lots of possible equipment and an interesting story.

For me personally, Aeon Trespass: Odyssey is the best boss-battler I've played, and one of my all-time fav games
