Quotes (from this video)
  • I think this is a very welldeveloped game, I have to say.
  • And all you need to do is print out these papers. Don't need a pen. You don't need nothing else. Just just your two decks of cards and you you can get to playing.
  • So yeah, it's a bit of a a very much like, you know, luck of the draw type of game, but that's kind of what you get when you play a card game, especially with decks of cards like this.
  • I'm really enjoying it solo. Very, very portable. So, if you're into that, this is probably the one for you to check out.
