• This game is simply okay, and I do not recommend chasing down this game, paying the collector's prices.

• So, this is pretty much right here is where the games uh your your victory or defeat will be determined.
• So, we basically just lost the game with that roll.
• So, there is just a ton of luck. There's really there's almost zero strategy.
• The only real choice you ever have in this game is whether or not you want to fight or escape from an enemy or when to use your items.
