Res Arcana Review - Chairman of the Board

Good review. Played this game (and expansion) a lot over the last couple of years. One thing I would add to you comments about game balance is that while the game seemed swingy initially, experience has shown that there are no 'bad' cards. During the initial set up identifying the cards that will comrpise your engine and which ones are simply resource discards is very important. Most new players feel compelled to try and play all of their cards to the table when 3 or 4 should be enough. Finding that 'hook' to your engine and exploiting it faster than your opponents is the key to the game. Also, it's a 20-25 minute game, if you do feel rinsed by the cards it's quick to set up for game 2 :)

Haven’t watched the whole review yet but I bought this game last week played it once and really enjoyed it. Looking forward to playing it more. It was fairly easy to learn as well👍it’s cool your drawing attention to it.

This is one of the best game designs of the past 3 years - hands down. Phenomenal game.
