Quotes (from this video)

• I think it's really neat that a game like this has progression.
• So, it gives you this feeling that I think is so brilliant in a push your luck game, where you have a chance, even if you have not rolled well throughout most of the game, that you can come down to the wire in that last turn, and you have a chance to win, even if you have two points over the course of the game. Someone else has 50. You can still win if you roll seven bells.
• And I thought that was a really clever mechanism to put in the game, where previous to this, you always just wanted the force to be with you.
• I really like the game that the game presents this fairly organic timer to you.
• But I thought this was really really clever that you're scoring these special abilities based on the current trick as well.
• But I just love that without any shuffling.
• And I think that's such a clever twist that I really want to use it in the game where you are kind of crafting a deck but you're inserting cards in specific places in that deck and how that matters.
• So, there's this nice, slight catch-up mechanism.
• And so, uh I just like that. I like positive player interaction, but I also like close games, and I think this does it in a really nice way.
• I think what this does is that lets players be themselves.
• And I think that is so cool that these cards give you that flexibility.
• I think that is so clever that you have a few chances to take over your opponent's cards.
• I really appreciate when games do this, especially fairly complex games like Sanctuary.
• And uh yeah, I think this this short-term goal system um of things to pursue, I think, is really really helpful in Sanctuary.
• There's this shared trauma in this game cuz when this robot comes up, it hurts everybody.
• I think it's such a clean system.
• I really love the variability that adds and how it kind of can shape the decisions that you make on any given game. It's such a clever system.

Mechanics (from transcript analysis)

• Action card abilities — Your adventures cost one less lead fewer to complete. That's cool. You can use that ability. You can play it and and use that ability and say, 'Okay, I'm going to use that, and that's I'm going to choose I'm going to choose what I want to do.' Or I can you do the ruthless part. Rivals adventures cost an additional lead to complete. So, you're trying to screw your guy over your opponent over while you're trying to complete these.
• Action X cards — And then you're also going to have an action X card. These are going to help you either help you or cause your your opponent harm.
• Adventure cards — These are adventure cards, and you're going to have three of these out.
• Barter — You know, you can barter with each other.
• Breakthrough — Discard three matching leads, draw an action X card. So, if you want to get those action X cards, if you got three cards of the same uh of the same faction there, you can draw an X card.
• card abilities — you can use one of these abilities to kind of screw you over.
• Completing adventures — the first thing that you're trying to do here is you are trying to complete five of five adventures. If you're able to do that, you are going to win the game.
• Discard pile — And you can either draw one from a discard pile, or you can actually keep one.
• Lead cards — These are lead cards, and each one are different. You'll have myth, you have glyphs. Let's see. I think vision and ruins are your leads.
• Matching glyphs — it's really an interesting game because you're trying to match up these glyphs to what you have in your card
• sabotage — Sabotage, discard a lead, and scrap an active resource.
• thwart — Thwart uh bury two matching leads, uh negate the effects of a heroic feat. You so, you can you can counteract certain things.

Quotes (from this video)

• It kind of has a Magic the Gathering feel, and if you love Magic the Gathering, I think you're really going to like this.
• It's it's a constant tug and pull because you're every time you're complete these, you're going to be able to get these action cards, and these action cards are going to either help you or be able to to counteract anything that your opponent does.
• And a nice little pull and tug game that has a lot of magic feel to it, but is not magic.
• it's fun, it's quick, it's to the point, and and and and it it's a it's a great game.
• When you look at it, you go, 'Oh, well, that's kind of not what I expected.' And then you start playing it, and it's kind of this a little bit of cutthroat, and you're two archaeologists, and and and you really feel the theme there.
• This is this is a lot of fun, and very much worth playing.
