It's really that good
I'm a gamer....I've played a ton of games and I really enjoy deckbuilders. I knew I was going to love this game. The art is awesome, the graphic design is perfect, and it plays pretty fast. What I didn't foresee is that my wife, who's a total non-gamer, absolutely loves this game probably more than I do. We've played it about 10 times in the last week and she just wants to play more and more. I think what she likes about it is the simple rules, the intuitive symbols (not a lot of reading on the cards), the simple set-up, and the speed of the game. She's starting to see card combos, she's starting to project next turn, and she's forming long term strategy. She likes it so much she told me to buy another set for 4 player games. It's totally a dream come true for me...I have a gamer wife! At least for one game, and that's a pretty good selling point. It's really that good.
