Quotes (from this video)
  • it's a drafting with turn order gam so you can draft something weaker to get a better place in the next round's turn order
  • this is a nice light to medium weight complexity
  • I really enjoy this uh probably more than beyond the sun
  • it's a two-player mode that is brutal
  • two-player brutal ... or competitive
  • it's a big pen and paper game with a huge grid where you're trying to combo as many actions together
