Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers before you buy

5 questions
Does it work well with 2 players?
Yes! Scalability is a strong point - with 2 it's more tactical, with 4 it's more chaotic fun.
Does it need a big table?
No, the modular board grows organically and fits small tables.
Is it hard to learn?
Rules are simple (weight 1.7/5 on BGG), great for introducing tile-laying mechanics.
Is there too much luck?
Some luck in tile draws, but smart strategic choices make all the difference.
Good for kids?
Works well from age 10+ - adventurous theme without explicit violence.
