“Very Fun. Well executed from start to finish. Challenging enough. Complex enough. Silly enough. Not too much of anything. Not frustrating. Go for it.”

“The game is a lot of fun. There's enough strategy in it to make it interesting. Enough of a progression to keep you playing and growing. And it's something you can plan for a bit and put down and come back to it later. Kinda addicting.”
