Quotes (from this video)
- So, I don't know. Lots and lots of fun. We picked this one up at Gen Con last year and made the first round to the table immediately.
- Sarah and I were playing it and she was like, 'Oh, I forgot how good this is.' Like, it's actually a pretty good cooperative game.
- This is a trading card game, a Star Wars trading card game. But Intro Battle Hoth is uh a nice little entry into how the game works.
- So, um I don't have to go anymore. As you can see, um, we've played this and Melissa did a really good job of getting rid of the tiles that were on her, um, card, which is actually the hardest thing because these are all your extraes are wild, so they can go on any tiles. But if you can't get them off here, then you're sort of stuck.
- This game has a lot of things to think about, a lot of strategy consider um how cutthroat are you going to be with your opponent?
- So, um in this case it's a two-player game. The cat has gone hiding in the house and we are trying to lure them back out from hiding by being the most attractive and interesting with the toys that we have for the cat.
- The more you win, the easier it becomes to bust.
- This is a game where you tear things up. So if you really are mad at something, this is the game for you.
- So the normal time frame for a round is two minutes. But you the rules say, 'Hey, you could do three, four, or five if you want it to be less frantic.'
- This is definitely more mystery, but this is a lot of mystery games sometimes are cooperative. This one's competitive.
- My recommendation is if you're going to play this with a group is actually have them pick their characters ahead of time have them like maybe even like a day before or a couple days before like give them the character give them the information they can read through it that that way they can like process it.
