In this game you get a hand of cards, and what you are looking to do is manage to play your cards, and then have them last long enough to sell them for points. Each card requires certain symbols to play, and you collect those symbols through having cards sitting in your tableau, or covering spots on cards in front of any player to take those resources. At the cards get covered, their values shift either up or down. The game requires you be very careful not to bump your cards, and you have to pay close attention to the tiny icons on other player's tableaus. The high flipluck is a problem here and I'm not sure what this game does better than any similar game, other than perhaps incentivise you to punch the person in last, due to the way the point values go on the cards that player was unlucky enough to draw. :nostar: Art, Iconography and components functional :nostar: Clever or interesting mechanisms :star: Reasonably low downtime between turns with mildly AP players :nostar: Multiple plays stay interesting :nostar: Low or mitigatable luck elements :star::star::nostar::nostar::nostar: Raw enjoyment
