it's essentially ascension plus steam-punk and player interaction, without the hassle of deciding if you want to go fight or buy

9.0/10
VERY much enjoy this Steampunk deck builder with the marketplace rotating each turn and the option to fight villains and potentially purchase new cards each turn.
9.0/10
Has a lot in common with my other favorite deck builder, Artic Scavengers without the depressing theme....And it adds a slow rotation of available cards almost like a slow-mo draft mechanic... Art is fantastic, and it plays fast, about the only downside might be it plays so fast (lots of simultaneous actions) the game goes by in a blur if you are not paying attention and you're like "Whaaat, how did you get so far ahead?!" Even if you are an idiot like me who always forgets to move his card, its easy to backtrack and correct. Easy to understand, but I am still wrestling with when is best to buy certain cards and the expansion looks good too (played it once)
8.0/10
By the artwork Alone, I really look forward to trying this game! I got to take a look at it at Metatopia and really enjoyed talking about the components and seeing the wonderful vibrant and detail oriented theme-oozing box! I look forward to reviewing the game and updating my rating after having the opportunity to play it in full!
8.0/10
I was a Playtester, and must say I enjoyed playing. Not being much of a card player in the past and not playing with any it was a slow start but once things got moving it was a lot of fun. I recommend it to you and your group of friends.
