Sentinels is an interesting game for me. I had never heard of it until last year, when I received the Video Game as a present. While I am not normally a comic book fan or a superhero fan, somehow the combination of simple game play, amusing art, and "not Marvel or DC" background turned me into a fan. Both the video and physical board game are incredibly well done. The video game does save a lot of tracking of status, event, and hit points, but nothing insurmountable.
Perhaps most telling, everyone I have introduced the game to has felt the same way. It is simple, plays fast, and is actually a lot of fun. In any case, check it out and see if it is something for you.
