Great work Andi!

I played this game three or so years ago, and felt it was firmly 'alright'. I'm not a huge deckbuilder fan though so it was probably never going to be something I loved.

There certainly are some neat elements to it and I love the aesthetic.

I'd say if the theme and mechanisms call out to you it's definitely worth the asking price. There's not a lot out there quite like it. Maybe Tyrants of the Underdark but this one has way more lo-fi charm.

Cheers man, thanks for reading. The whole theme and aesthetic were an absolute slam dunk for my main group and I thought the accessibility to depth ratio was spot on for what it's trying to achieve. A few rough edges in both balance and production couldn't tarnish it. The 'cubes on a map' aspect also made me question if I ever need minis in a game again.
