Quotes (from this video)
  • Anacrony is a cooperative game for one to four players. So it's a cooperative game where you're working together to stop that end game timer.
  • You're constantly making choices about how you're gonna spend your next X turns, and you've got to have enough resources.
  • You've got to plan for months ahead. You've got to plan how you're gonna spend your next X turns.
  • This is a really good cooperative game. I've played it a couple of times.
  • It's a very thinky game. So you've got all these different tracks and your different workers and your different ways to score points.
