Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Solo and Campaign are super fun though, and I like how Campaigns have 3 objectives each, but you can achieve 1 or 2 of them and replay them to achieve the 3rd, which is helpful as the tokens/tiles come out randomly in the market.
15 of 48 sampled reviews raised it
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
We have attempted to play seven or eight multiplayer games and have succeeded on possibly three occasions to complete them.
11 of 48 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
The presentation is not overly elaborate, but it is cohesive and effective, supporting the gameplay without unnecessary distractions.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The pixelated graphics and chiptune music are perfectly retro, the animations are delightful, and there's a surprising amount of gameplay thanks to the different game modes and campaign options!

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The soundtrack is perfectly thematic, the gameplay is fun and thinky, the asymmetrical boss abilities add nice variety, and the command cards make things more interactive with your opponents.
