I am a big fan of Devir games. I saw this one at Dice Tower East, but it wasn't available to demo, just to look at. I bought it after seeing good reviews. We played over the weekend and had a great time. It really makes great use of the theme. There's a lot of great strategy in there, too. 👏👏
Thank you for the spot-on review! As an aside, it looks as if you haven't peeled the protective film off of the acrylic pieces (standees, bases and probably ability tokens, as well). It's hard to see it until it starts peeling off by itself but it's there and the components look much nicer once it's off.
@@boardgamesfortwo Thanks, Joe. Devir did a bang-up job! Also, I've found that setup is easier if you shuffle the decks as you're putting them away and if divide them into two stacks -- cards you use during Setup (character cards, starting life experience, personal goals, jobs and managers) and those that go on the board. With good organization you should be up and running in about 5 minutes. In a 4 or 5 person game, people can be choosing their characters and taking their starting life experience while you're setting up to save time. Happy rocking!

It's a lot of fun! I was just a kid in the 70's, but the older kids in my neighborhood all had this vibe! LOL! Great game! ❤❤
