Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- card flipping — All of the cards are double-sided. You can flip cards to the other side, a single card or a whole group of cards next to each other.
- Discard and draw — You can discard a card from your hand and the new card you get will go on the edges of your hand.
- Hand Management — You'll get a hand of six cards, but you cannot rearrange your hand. You have to hold the cards as you got them.
- Set Collection — You need cards in a very specific order in your hand in order to sing Christmas carols.

Quotes (from this video)
- I brought 22 games and we played 19 of them.
- My 5-year-old nephew, that was probably his favorite game of the trip, and he played that one a lot.
- The only game I brought that was not a hit was The Fate of the Fellowship.
- I love this game. It's just a little too complicated for my family, specifically my dad.
- I just think it was a little bit too much for him and I kind of knew that it would be on the edge of too much but I wanted to try it anyway and and now I know I still think it's a great game.

Quotes (from this video)
- It's really cool and it's a you know, it's a feels very uh strategic and still plays in like 30 minutes.
- I mean I I love that when a game feels like it has some strategic depth, but still plays pretty quickly.
- So yeah, Flintlock is awesome for that.
- I love this duel trend that we have right now because of a couple of things. I think that they're doing a great job distilling these bigger games into faster experiences, which I really love.
- It's also got wonderful artwork, wonderful production design. Everything looks awesome on the table and it's just yeah, it's it's all the things I love about Wonderland's War, but in like half of the time.
- And so I love that now I just need one other player and I can get this to the table as well.
