The idea that the game only has one action manages to both understate what's going on and overstate what the designers were able to achieve with that single action. There are simpler games that manage to do infinitely more. This was dull and forgettable. I am writing this while the crowdfunding campaign is underway; hopefully there are some changes between now and its eventual production.

Moaideas does it again. While having only played the prototype, this game far exceeds my expectations. There is no pickup - just deliver. The surprising depth of thought that goes into each of the few actions is surprising and reminiscent of the age when games had a simple teach and depth of gameplay. Can't wait to see the 2024 release!

Backed Deluxe version on Kickstarter for $60 on 12-7-2023 to deliver on 6-'24. Received 12-3-2024.

Played prototype, really enjoying the simple rules and action, but difficult decisions
