Quotes (from this video)
- And we are Ryan Bethany Board Game Reviews.
- So, Classified Information is uh designed by Justin Gunnel and it is published by Incredest Games.
- Wrong. This is an 18 card micro game with a little bit more variability, of course. But at its core, it is an 18 card micro game.
- So, I like that you're able to customize this.
- The big deduction part of this is huge as far as figuring out what your opponent has and keeping back the right card in order to make that code happen and getting past the guards, of course.
- But overall, I thought this was a really good, solid game. If you like two-player games, if you like micro games, and if you like deduction games, I can almost guarantee you're going to enjoy this.
- This is way too big of a box for just a just a card game.
- Blooming flower. Blooming flower. That's the box inside the box of classified information.
