  • It looks generic-y medieval, but clean and I like it.
  • Such a fun experience of just memory, strategy, energy management, and player powers.
  • These things look so good that they look fake.
  • That is like a pure pure gambling game.
  • It's a game that's actually more fun when you mess it up than when you get it correct.
  • I really love the look, the gear mechanism. It's so smart.
  • It is pretty fun, chaotic, jumping around game.
  • I think this has the opportunity to be even stronger.
  • A lot of board gamers are collectors and so this does kind of feed into that collector itch.
  • I scored 41 points. He said, 'I've never seen 41 points.'
