Full disclosure: I played this at a private session last night with the designer's fourth cousin's best friend's roommate from college who is a close friend of mine with a minor stake in its sales profits. However, I am not shilling and only say I loved the game because I did in fact love the game.

I recommend that everyone go into the Palm Pilot on which they record their games played and clear off some space to track your wins and losses of GAME Z because it is all you will want to play for at least a month.
Welcome to the fold, Mad Dog!

This is very important to me; if Game Z goes 11 minutes or longer, it will clearly be broken.

Also, I think the cards are of mediocre quality. Although I could not see them from a dead angle (in a picture on a site that, regrettably, I am not allowed to tell about), my estimate is that they are more of the thickness of the Citadels expansion, than the original game. Surely an alarming sign.
A friend of mine is also complaining that the lieutenant miniatures that were supposed to be added to the delivery of ypu pre-order, are late and likely to be broken. I can't actually believe that Winsome Games would send out such a great game with such shite components!

Maypole Games has been discussed as a possible publisher, but it is more thank likely that it will be picked up by either Warfrog or Winsome- those are publishers who have a lot of esteem and it is completely understandable why their games are limited editions and a hundred dollars. Their games look no fun, and the LAST thing we want is for people to view GAME Z as just a dumb old board game like (heh) MONOPOLY. Plus the added typos will provide us with plenty of fodder for discussion on the internet, which is more important than the game itself.
Jur- gods sake man, the last thing we need is a Precog stirring the pot before the damn thing even comes out. When you saw into the future and were able to forsee these "issues" (I prefer to think of them as "challenges"), you obviously didn't see- a la Ghost of Christmas Future- the financial woe and emotional hardship that your reportage will wreck upon the designer and his family when the game sells 3000 copies instead of 4000, assuming that 1000 people have enough faith in your precognitive abilities to cancel their preorders. In the future I rather like the components and I think they are quite nice.
Druen Kree- unless clever mechanics, an agreeable, neglible theme, and family friendly gameplay offend you, you will be safe. The rules are too short and the theme too vague to offend anyone. There's no "he" in the game, only "s/he's". The game condemns war, hatred, and fascism as well as mean people.
It is time to get excited people...this will be the NUMBER ONE GAME.

I'd like five, please ... that way I can make a neat pattern (or maybe spell something out) below my custom Christian-cross-with-Agricola-in-the-background avatar.

(It's not technically AT, but I think we can all make an exception for this game!)

AGRICOLA was a false prophet. GAME Z is bona fide. GAME Z died on the cross for the hobby. The biggest question is whether you should put the badge first (putting GAME Z first) or in the center (a GAME Z-centered life).
