This game features a character creation system using clear cards, allowing players to design 3,000 distinct characters for varied gameplay. It incorporates bluffing mechanics that challenge players to strategize, observe opponents, and maintain deception to gain an advantage. Designed for 2-4 players, it casts participants as rival leaders vying for control over the American Frontier. The gameplay includes light engine-building elements, drawing inspiration from Machi Koro and Space Base, making it accessible for newcomers while offering strategic depth for experienced players. A key objective involves assembling a team of scoundrels to steal advanced technology left behind by a mysterious figure known as the Traveler.
Things to Keep in MindThe game's initial learning curve and setup process, particularly involving card organization and sleeving, can be time-consuming, and some players note a lack of integrated storage solutions for components. Additionally, the bluffing mechanic is occasionally perceived as less central or impactful than anticipated by some players. Why You'll Like ItPlayers consistently commend the game's high-quality components, including the board, cards, and artwork, which contribute to an immersive theme. The innovative "scoundrel creation" system, utilizing combined cards and clear sleeves, is frequently highlighted for delivering extensive replayability and ensuring each game feels unique.
