Quotes (from this video)

  • In Cat Versus Human, you play as cats trying to annoy a human being the most.
  • If you like games like chess, then check out leaders.
  • Covenant is a heavyweight strategy game.
  • There’s a lot of different options in the game and you’ll never be able to do everything, but it's really fun figuring out how to upgrade your board and combo stuff together.

  • It is an awesome legacy version of the great little dice game Mountain Goats.
  • you'll be revealing content in different chapters throughout the game, and it's still the fun, familyfriendly dice game that it was before, but now there's just sort of different layers and twists to do it.
