Quotes (from this video)
- five board games that weren't quite strong enough to stay in my collection.
- So for one reason or another, these didn't quite make the cut.
- I really wanted to like this game because I thought the concept was so neat, but I was slightly concerned that this was just going to be uh another deck-building game, but maybe slightly repackaged in how it was presented to the user.
- But all in all, it's not really a game I felt like I needed to come back to and explore any more once I'd understood the mechanisms and understood how the games work.
