This game appeals to me on every level … so stunningly beautiful. Artwork should win awards like crazy!

Hello there!Thank you for the review in an EXTRAORDINARY GAME!! I have a question: if you combine 2or 3 green cards, which of their abilities will you use? If for example your first green card is the shield that protects you from all attacks, and then you gain the other green card that protects only from charcoalium theft. You have to put THAT last card on the top of the other and use only THAT ability or the other card too? And what about if you combine all three cards? Waiting for your answer!! Thank you in advance!

Wow, such a unique, creative style! Thanks for the video! I want to play games in that studio!!

I got this in the mail from France about two weeks ago, but haven’t had a chance to play it yet. I think it may hit the table this weekend. I’m excited to play it!

How does this play with 2..?

Thanks MVM, looks like a trip worth taking with the right company!

Played this a few months ago. It's good... but definitely not Mr. Cathala's best. The artwork is bold, but ultimately lacks color. It's all mostly brown and gray. It makes the whole thig look depressing imo. For thinky puzzle style games like this, i much prefer Five Tribes and Yamatai by the same designer. Five Tribe is my number 1 game. Yamatai in my top 20. Imaginarium... ...maybe somewhere in my top 200.

I like the idea of recycling and mixed use in the cards, but I agree with the other comment about the art. It's very gray and depressing. It reminds me a lot of the late 90's graphic artists that created obscure dystopian centerpieces inside an otherwise devoid and dark canvas. The art is definitely a bold choice but I'd still love to see this get to the table so I can try these unique mechanisms for myself.

Love the art!

[@oritholze1765]

agree . it is so unique

[@vicentemercadoalmeida1048]

Surprised it didn't get a seal of approval. Could it be it because the game play it not as unique as de design?

[@davidwaybright]

The game play is actually very unique, so don't let our comments about the graphic design overshadow that. Our system for labeling games as "approved" is not the most scientific, but this one was VERY close to getting it.
