Quotes (from this video)
  • Mateo is not a fun game, not interesting at all.
  • blue penguin best of the bunch for sure.
  • Those are my scores four, five, and six. They get a little better as you know, as we go, but they're not fabulous games. I wouldn't go out and buy them myself, and I wouldn't recommend playing them.
  • However, they're super adorable. They're a cool idea of being able to fit these, you know, games in such tiny little boxes. The problem with it, I think, is that they over simplified everything.
  • So, really, it's just a little bit too simplified for me.
