My tastes line up similarly with yours (other than you moving away from the heavier games), and I often buy games that you recommend. Luckily I played this one before seeing this review and dodged a bullet. My wife and I played this and afterwards were like "is that really the game?". The currency was neat but the engine building was so bland. We thought maybe we missed something. Keep up the great work on this channel!

My daughter was the first one to say it out loud after 3 or 4 rounds. She blurted out "I don't like this game". My wife immediately followed up with "I don't like this either". I didn't even bother trying to convince them to continue.

We are certainly the outliers. It's getting a ton of praise.

I played it once on boardgame arena... and I quite like it. It took longer than expected... maybe at the table it feels better. Will see tomorrow... it will be a birthday gift😀 It reminds me of an easier 'Seasons' with it own twist on things. And Seasons is my favorite game ever😅

My wallet does not thank you for this review. I’ve had to take the padlock off it twice of late, following your Marabunta and Enchanted Plumes reviews - and now this.

Huh, weird coincidence, just learnt and played this. Pretty well put together game and the 4 token and card limitation restrictions are very clever pieces of design, but I dont know, aside from those two ideas it kind of just gave the same vibes any other card-based tableau-builder. Also the ergonomy of that central display drove me kind of bananas since the cards are on a weird angle for everyone so people had to kept leaning over and pick them up to read the tiny text etc.

Hi Dan, great review! I didn’t think you’d like it that much, but i had similar feelings when i played it for the first time. Reading the rules and thinking this can’t be all, where is the game? Then playing it and everything clicked together. What impressed me most is the simplicity vs depth ratio, and the genius mechanical design decisions in terms of constrains. The constrains actually are what makes the game the game that it is. Similarly, after my first play of the game we looked at each other not believing that it is that good while beimg so clean, stripped down and accessible. Awesome review. I thought you might ripp it apart, because it is to simple and somehow also quite light, but i am glad about “confirmed alignment”. :-) I assume, that people who didn’t enjoy this, either expected something completely different, are not into combotastic gameplay, or have problems understanding how all the constrains are actually where the game is.

Hello Chairman, the text in the cards seems like little ants, are they too small?
