Mechanics (from transcript analysis)

• Asymmetric play — Each player plays the same thing, trying to get opponent's agents while protecting their own.
• Fixed Deck — Not a collectible card game; the core set has a fixed number of cards.
• Timing System — Intricacies of the timing system were difficult to grasp initially but started to click.
