The illustrations of the cards and art style work very well with anthropomorphized animals (think of Zootopia) that populate this fantasy world and you can see the connections between the type of animals and their attributes and personality.

The narration and sound are also excellent, especially the narrator who is voiced by Travis Willingham who recently gave voice to Grog (Legend of Vox Machina) but has a vast career in voice acting.
