Overall sentiment (raw)
positive
Pros
- Similar feel to Magic: The Gathering but with fixed decks
- Interesting faction asymmetry
- Clean game system with clear actions
- Good combos and tricks possible
Cons
- Unclear target audience due to similarity to Magic: The Gathering
- Deck building is not a focus (which the reviewer sees as a pro, but it could be a con for others)
Thematic elements
- Head-to-head dueling
- Parallel history
Comparison games
- Magic: The Gathering
Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- Area Control — Players control locations and can use their abilities by spending a turn.
- asymmetric factions — Players take control of a unique faction, each with its own strengths and weaknesses.
- Combat — Similar to Magic: The Gathering, players commit characters and the opponent can try to block them. Anything going through results in power gain.
- Dueling — A head-to-head dueling game for two players.
- Fixed Decks — Comes with pre-determined decks for balanced play, which the reviewer prefers over deck-building.
- Reputation system — Players must increase their reputation with certain factions to play more powerful cards.
- Resource Management — Uses a currency called 'Mythi' (similar to mana) to play cards.

Quotes (from this video)
- This is where I take a look at the last five new to me board games that I've played and I rank them and review them in order of preference.
- This one is probably the one of the best ones that I've played because it is so fast and you know you can teach this to you know your auntie who's not played a game since 19 1985 and they're still going to understand what to do here because everything is very clearly written on each card.
- For me this was a little bit too trick takery I'm not a big fan of trick taking games and to get the most from this one you need to kind of have a you know a Rainman style memory and I'm not like that so this one was also a Miss for me.
- This game is going to be directly compared to Magic the Gathering and rightly so you know I'd be lying if I said it wasn't very similar because it is.
- The only issue is I kind of struggle to see who the core audience is because if you like games like this you're probably going to be playing Magic.
- A lovely filler and very charming it looks nice on the table and I think this can fill that little kind of 20 minute Gap at the end of a game's day.
- This game is surely a game of efficiency.
- When I first played it I thought this is fine it's a little bit slow a little bit plotting but by the end of the game I was really enjoying it and you know I think this one has potential to climb for me and it maybe eventually reach a commendation.

none
Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- Drafting — A drafting mode is available and takes longer but is even better.
- TCG — Described as kind of like a TCG where you buy one box and can play pre-made decks.
