- So, we are asymmetrical um tidal blades trying to figure out what's wrong and save Niri, the this beautiful sea town.
- You get to combine a lot of different powers strategically. Uh we've been having a really good time with it.
- The basic idea is there's so many combos in this game. If you like combos, you'd owe it to yourself to check out this game. I really enjoy it because it feels like every move leads to two or three or four other rewards. very rewarding.
- And then so you're building this engine and just doing all these super combos is very very cool and a lot of cool thematic things but also hard to learn because that rule book is one that will burn into my head forever.
- So go watch a tutorial video or something because that's a tough tough.
- I do remember really enjoying Lacrimosa.
- A lot of really great games there. Huge variety. I wish I could have played all of them, but we played a good good chunk of them.
- It is a if you were going to play, if you're looking for a good game, there's got to be something in this set that will like really work for you or your group depending on where you're at on this sort of scale of complexity.
- So we're trying, you know, there's over a thousand reviews as you said. So trying to enhance discoverability is kind of my project for this year.
