OK we'll admit it, we saw the gorgeous illustrations by Diego Sรก and knew we had to check this title out. It's a variable deck card game (you construct the cast of characters before the game starts like Dominion) with an interesting "follow" mechanic. In this video we describe how it works which we hope helps you decide if it's a game for you, or not!
Note: Prototype game featured, art, components & rules subject to change. This is an unpaid preview and as with all of our content, consists of our honest thoughts and opinions.

Thanks for stopping by! We're Amy & Maggie aka ThinkerThemer. We're an Australian couple with two very different perspectives of what makes a great board game - Amy (Thinker) is all about the mechanics and enjoys tight, competitive games, and Maggie (Themer) is all about the storytelling and the theme of the game, and the 'world' that the designer is trying to create. Subscribe to our channel to hear us talk about these two elements of a game, and how well integrated we feel these are in delivering a cohesive and wonderful game experience.
