  • I feel like I'm being too cavalier if there's a whole bunch of them.
  • I do kind of consider five out of fives different categories.
  • Recall gives me a lot of the feeling that Revive does, but with more variance to the gameplay and the power combinations and the ways you're trying to build and expand across the board.
  • It is such a clever experience as far as how it all comes together.
  • Six Susurrus surprised me.
  • it is so simple and easy to play.
  • Every decision you make is so fraught with what is the right economy here.
  • It is such a good clever system that rewards every single choice with such a huge degree of thinkingness behind it.
  • I want to play a nice heavy thinky experience, but I don't actually want a nice heavy thinky long game.
  • If a game deserves a five out of five, it's going to get it.
  • For me, a five out of five is a game that I will sit down and play any single time that I am down.
