- I'm going to throw it out. I'm So all day I'm just gonna say Don and I'll let you guys decide who I'm actually talking to because I have not figured out a good way to do it without like long names here.
- The little epilogue, we were laughing reading it like actually out loud laughing, not like, 'Oh, that's funny.' Like legitimately funny as you go through.
- And this one uses an app that I my understanding is it does like all kind of the behind the scenes math and stuff for you.

- This game is crazy pants. It is hard and I love it.
- It's deadly if you focus on all of them.
- This is the kind of game that you could play many
- I adore that that's on there, especially in a two-player game.
- If you want a free lunch, go eat your house
- And that's a testament of a really really good game, especially one as heavy as Sweetlands.
- Stuper Monday is one of those games that similar to Sweetlands. It's not as deep, it's not as heavy as Sweetlands, but when it comes to timing, efficiency of actions, and uh sort of using cards to do actions, it's it's right there in that sweet spot.
- This is a train game but with magic. And the magic matters because basically it's like ah gosh I can't connect my train to this spot. Magic. And now I just teleport over it and I keep moving the stuff.

positive
Pros
- Unique narrative experience
- Accessible fantasy adventure
- Elegant card system
- High production quality
- Challenging gameplay due to fewer cards
- Rog-like aspect with multiple playthroughs encouraged
- Robust experience with three chapters
- High replayability due to branching paths and choices
- Well-presented components
- Massive box size
- Organized storage with boxes and lids
- Individual player actions possible in a shared environment
Cons
- Might not be an exciting watch due to reading and exploring
- Drawing fewer cards can make it challenging
Thematic elements
- fantasy adventure
- point and click adventure style
Comparison games
- Seventh Continent
- Splendor
- Weather Machine
Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- Campaign play — There are three chapters and you can play through each of the three chapters which a pretty robust experience. They have all these tracking sheets for each time you play through so you can get more and do more and see more.
- Card Play — It's a very elegant system with the way you're playing your cards. You're always able to use the number on the top so if you have a challenge that you're facing that says this takes a five you can disregard the rest of the card and just use you know that that would be five but if I'm doing a movement action I'm also going to do this. Combining these cards lets you do some of the things you need to those bigger numbers.
- Deck Building/Management — Character decks that are specific to each character and then you can actually level up.
- exploration — Focus on exploration. When you find yourself here and it's going to take eight movement to go visit location nine because you're going down a bunch of steps but just to go through this door it costs four movement.
- Skill checks — Each character has effectively a bonus to a few different skills so as you come across things like this tinkering skill to unlock something they'd have a plus one they plus two.
- Threat track — Players share things like threat and our Vite is a shared thing it's not per character so if Ryan goes somewhere and our threat goes up and it's while something is happening to me where something happens a number of monsters come out based on our Threat Level.

Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- Contracts, crew, mods, and resources — Resources, contracts, crew cards, and mod tokens interact for end-game scoring; certain resources (like weapons) are wild and come with risk.
- damage and health tracking — Dice rolls can cause damage; a health tracker and damage markers determine end-game scoring consequences.
- Dice Drafting — Players roll a pool of dice each round and draft one die to use on their dashboard for movement or resting.
- Dice drafting from a pool — Players roll a pool of dice each round and draft one die to use on their dashboard for movement or resting.
- Movement options for three vehicle types — Three vehicles (trike, plane, submarine) move differently and use the drafted die to determine distance and direction.
- Rest phase and die management — A rest phase allows dice, crew, and resources to be refreshed or traded, with effects that can alter future turns.
- Storm movement and resource scattering — The storm moves along blue paths, with its distance influenced by die pips and end-of-round scoring implications, scattering resources as it moves.
- Vehicle-based action placement with ascending order — Dice must be placed in a vehicle's row in strictly ascending order, with each vehicle offering a unique ability for its turn.

- Storm Raiders is played over six rounds which are tracked at the top of the board
- each player will draft a die from the pool and use it to either move or rest
- the number on the die represents the number of hours spent driving that vehicle on this turn
- the storm then scatters new resources in its path
