Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- action points and player powers — incoming power cards grant actions; spending points enables moves like shifting bullets or triggering effects

- bullets in a bag and placement — players add bullets to a personal bag based on the current threat level and then draw/place them on their board
- color-coded placement and skipping — bullet color and number determine placement on a vertical/horizontal grid; if another bullet blocks the path, it’s skipped
- end condition: last man standing — when a player clears enough bullets, capacity transfers to the opponent and the round ends
- health and draw-in penalties — if you draw a bullet that you can’t place, it goes to your health; lose when hearts are fully covered
- pattern matching to remove bullets — matching card patterns allows removal of other bullets marked with a starburst on the board
- player elimination — when a player clears enough bullets, capacity transfers to the opponent and the round ends
- Simultaneous Actions — both players act without waiting, keeping the play brisk and tense
- simultaneous turns — both players act without waiting, keeping the play brisk and tense
