Pros
- Uses a common card back for all Czegeis games.
- Cooperative element from the start.
- Unique mechanic of needing to move to locations to purchase cards or defeat titans.
- Dual economy of power and movement.
- Mechanic where players can take damage instead of the wall.
- Arch-enemy titans have unique mechanics like regenerating health.
- Seeding the deck with arch-enemy titans adds variability.
- No player elimination, players return to the game after being defeated.
- Ability to use wounds for power.
- Ability to trade cards with other players.
- Ability to destroy wounds to help other players.

- Titans, once defeated, are removed from the game and do not help the players.
- Scales well from 1 to 5 players.
- Works very well as a solo game.
Cons
- Arch-enemy titans hit hard and are hard to take care of.
- If the wall is destroyed, the area is destroyed and the game is over.
- If two players die (in a 2-player game) or a certain number of players die based on player count, the game is over.
- Losing a player character destroys their hand and anything played that turn.
- Gaining another wound can lead to player defeat.
- Titans deal damage to the wall if not dealt with.
- Arch-enemy titans deal two damage and have regenerating hit points.
- Titans might show up in inconvenient locations.
- Players might have to run away from a titan to avoid damage to the wall, delaying confrontation.
- Uncertainty of titan attack power due to potential additions.
- Uncertainty of what the titans will do (ambushes, etc.).
- Titans can have more hit points than initially displayed.
- If the deck runs out, the players have lost.
Thematic elements

- a castle area, also referred to as the wall
Comparison games

Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- Card Destruction/Removal — Cards can be destroyed or removed from the game, acting as a deck-cleaning mechanism.
- Cooperative deck building — A specific implementation where deck building is used in a cooperative context with shared goals and threats.
- cooperative play — All players work together towards a common goal, with shared loss conditions.
- Deck Building — Players build their decks throughout the game, starting with a seeded deck and acquiring new cards.
- Hand Management — Players manage cards in hand for power, movement, and special abilities.
- Movement — Players must use movement points to get to specific locations on the board.
- Push Your Luck (Implied) — The uncertainty of titan attack power and potential ambushes suggests players might need to generate more power than they think is necessary.
- Set Collection (implied) — Acquiring specific cards or defeating certain titans appears to be part of the win condition.
- wound mechanic — Players can gain 'wounds' which can be used as power but also contribute to player defeat if too many are accumulated.

Quotes (from this video)
- So, it has a cooperative element from the get-go.
- So like a dual economy here. Not only do you have to have the power right to to buy the thing, you have to have the movement to get to that location.
- There's no player elimination though.
- Because this is based on a a popular anime TV series, I believe.
- This is a fully cooperative game, right?
- So, it's a solo game. It's very It's very happy as a solo game, but it goes up the five players and it scales crazily because of how most of the things are draw x cards based on deal.
- Deacon, thanks so much for giving us this overview of the game and how it works. That was fantastic.
