I am not sure what I expected. I didnt look at any reviews or anything before buying it. However, when I bought the Rick and Morty adventure, I expected just that. An adventure. Instead it seems to be a retelling of the core rules through some weird rick and morty lens? Why is this under adventures? It seems like poor placement at best, a money grab for a popular franchise at worst.
I would probably put it under "sourcebooks" or something. As it doesnt really have an adventure in it.
Very tiny adventure, and not really rick and morty flavored in the slightest, I am overall extremely disappointed. 99% of the content is just rewritten core rules.
If you did a small amount of research its just a Rick & Morty flavored Beginners Kit. The Essential Kit is far better, Im pretty disappointed in the rick& morty one though. I was hoping for maybe Rick & Morty flavored spells, items and/or creatures but Im pretty sure the only thing it has is the basic beginner kit stuff with some Rick writing over top and a starting adventure.

You did no research before purchasing, but you're disappointed you didn't get what you assumed you'd get? I think that fault lies with you
The R&M box set was advertised as a themed starter kit like the Stranger Things adventure, which is also of comparable length.
What DDB did with the R&M adventure is actually make an exception and duplicate the basic rules with the additional Rick Sanchez 'commentary'. They didn't do this for the Essentials Kit or the Stranger Things adventure.

It is also an adventure. Seems pretty long to me (not like full campaign long, but at least 10 hours, maybe, idk).
