“Probably my favorite card game. The computer is an excellent opponent and the DLC add interesting content. When I have a break and less than an hour to play a game, this is the one I choose.”

“First, and only, time I played the boardgame version I hated this game passionately. It's a bunch of fiddly mechanics not amounting to much fun. But a friend of mine ranks it among his favorites so I figured I must be missing something and bought the computer version to play on…”

“Amazing to be able to play TtA so quickly against bots, vs a game that would take hours on the table.”
