5.0 - My absolutely favorite games. You can pry them out of my cold dead hands.
4.5 - Love this game! At the same time missing something that would make it a 5. Could be hard to table, lacking variability, a little light, etc.
4.0 - Really great game, almost always keeping, although has meaningful complaints as to what takes away from the experience.
3.5 - Really enjoyed, don't love it, may lose out to better games but the idea of never playing again is a bit sad.
3.0 - A good game, would play and suggest with the right people, if I never played it again wouldn't lose any sleep.
2.5 - A game I'd play again , but will never suggest it myself
2.0 - A game I don't want to play again
1.5 - A game I can't find any reason to recommend
1.0 - A game that is just bad.

I backed this and I can say the creator was excellent all the way through. Good feedback and great fun.
Yes! They were amazing, even the timeline alone is impressive.
Thanks for reviewing this smaller game. They deserve the same love and attention. A great little game that didn't break the bank and offers a good experience.
While I agree with the vast majority of the comments you made here, and while I myself tend to look for games which "provide the desired experience without compromise", I think it's a little unfair that bias being factored into your final numerical score, which is all that people tend to take home with them. The game should be judged based on what it set out to do, not what it never aimed to do but which you normally go for. I was really taken by this project, and I think the creator succeeded in delivering exactly what he claimed he had set out to do up front, which isn't to be sniffed at in my book.
Overall, a fair review and it's good you're doing content based on actual aspiring creators, not big companies who have long outgrown the need for crowdfunding, I just wish your final score had been a bit more forgiving.
Nice travel game.
Yes!
I have only played this solo, and have enjoyed the experiences, especially as the difficulty can be adjusted. Games tend to last a more consistent time due to the way the solo mode is implemented, and has provided a good puzzle.
Looking forward to the expansion on KS in March I think.
Missed opportunity to say "You can play it on your IPad!... Although physically not digitally" :D
3d printed a box and 3d meeple of the samurai's. I like the game and it's a fun solo puzzle
Hey, which 3D model did you use for this? I’d like to make a smaller box to travel
Great video, where can I buy it?
Thanks for the review Alex. These smaller games need more attention IMO. I love the fact that it is such a small package, I hope manufacturers start aiming for smaller/lighter packages as shipping and manufacturing costs continue to climb. This one is a pass for me but just wanted to say I'd love to see more of this style of games.
I pledged the PnP, but haven't built it yet.
Nice :) Worth checking out.
