Quotes (from this video)
- This I was mega excited about.
- We sneak the copy away.
- So, the idea behind this one, of course, card drafting, tableau building, similar to those games that we really enjoy where you're creating your grid of cards and having those have various effects, like for example in Annual X or for example in Car Combo, but with slightly more behind it as well.
- And again, sitting into that lovely sort of 45 minutes to an hour exciting interactive game, which I'm super excited about.
- The artwork is absolutely stunning.
- We can't do a 7-hour video. So, we going to in the upcoming weeks, we're going to in the in the other different episode that we do of the hype factor, the playlist or uh review, stuff like that. We're going to talk about all the other games as well.
- We have the best community of people and we love every single one of you.
