Quotes (from this video)
  • Avatar the Last Air Bender Ang's Destiny
  • The game is very challenging. It is very challenging. I enjoy that.
  • If you like Avatar and if you like deck builders, it's kind of like you're just going to like this game.
  • The plot ties in perfectly with the game. I think that was incredibly smart and brilliant.
  • Just be aware that's a thing that can happen. So, you have to be played a lot of times to get through that unless again you're either lucky or cheating.
