There’s a card, called World Peace or something similar, that changes the game so that everyone is aware that negative events aren’t in play. That can be great in multiplayer to remove the chaos! I’m also not a fan of having my carefully laid plans destroyed, although it can be enjoyable at times to play at that sort of pace. Normally, I prefer player interaction to be more about racing to get certain cards, blocking actions, or other things that don’t destroy what I’ve built!

I don’t specifically remember how solo felt different, but negative events felt much less common coming from the solo opponent. I still had a pretty aggressive strategy, so keep that in mind if the negative events really aren’t for you. I’m planning to try this out again when the final version arrives, although that still looks like it’s a few months away!
