## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent "engine builder" game.
*by A***R on August 3, 2025*

Excellent "engine builder" game. Simple rules. Short play time. Everyone playing will feel like they can put together a fun engine, puzzle style, that feels satisfying in the end.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My pick for the game of 2019
*by M***Y on December 28, 2019*

This game is incredible. Pretty quick to learn, the hardest part is learning the symbols, and the game provides a handy reference for that. Scales amazingly well from 2-4, and is simply a joy to play. I am continually amazed by the strategic depth with only a hand of 8 cards to work with at the beginning of the game. One thing I recommend, play with a dealt (random) hand while learning the game, but do drafting once you know the rules. Drafting is where its at with this one.Easy to set up and take down, games consistently under an hour, and they always leave me wanting to play just one more.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of My Most Anticipated and New Favorite Games
*by R***E on November 29, 2020*

I have been waiting to pull the trigger on this for a while and I am glad I finally did. This game has been in and out of stock and I see why. The game mechanics are amazing and despite my game group not being as nerdy as I am with fantasy lore and all, they really enjoy this as well. Its a regular favorite at our board game nights now. It plays a lot like 7 wonders but with added tools to help you win in unique ways. Some of the instructions arent as clear as I would like, such as adding essences to cards (What is the point in some cases) other than to move that resource to the next round but other than that I still find it really enjoyable and I am looking forward to buying the expansion immediately.
