Great coverage and take on these similar games WEM. Thanks! It would be very interesting to see more in this respectful comparison style of review.

Portrayal is my favorite of the fast-drawing types.

easy dice fix...just roll a d6 and call out the total of the rolls until you hit...42 (or whatever other number seems good)

[@boardgamegeek]

Good suggestion! A fixed end is in place, but you don't know how long it will take to get there. -WEM

I guessed Crown :(

I said crown!

Those games are not hobby board games, just mass market products aim for the super casual audiences. The basic idea of those games is very simplistic and no clever at all.

[@boardgamegeek]

"Just" mass market products? You say that like it's a bad thing... -WEM

[@gabrielnorena]

@@boardgamegeek Not a bad thing at all. Just not interesting and IMHO we should not give much attention to them as hobbyist board gamers.

@@gabrielnorena • I disagree given that the mainstream game market dwarfs the hobby market. I'm always curious to see simple designs done well, partly because that's the type of game I most enjoy myself. -WEM

[@gabrielnorena]

@@boardgamegeek Ok, you make a good point, but these are not done well, it is not even a clever idea for a game. Also, the presentation is super cheap (like many mass market games) and the graphic design and art is ugly in many of them.
