It was a sad day when I let this one go. Now that I think about it, I think your note about the decks being diluted was another issue for me. It felt really thematic when I spotted air conditioning or the same basic quality upgrades in every deck. Seemed like it cried out for a central, shared deck with all of the less-exciting elements that are used a lot so that the themes could shine in the spotlight. But hopefully my copy is being enjoyed by someone else, and I’ve got lots of other games I love!

Great to know. Thanks for the information, and I hope you continue to enjoy playing the game together!

It feels like solitaire multiplayer. There’s not a lot of interaction but that’s what my partner enjoys. I think there might be an unofficial solo mode on bgg.

Yeah, I felt kind of bad about not liking the game because I had such high hopes for it. I can see how it would work for the right sorts of players, but I’m unfortunately not in that audience. Here’s to hoping we both find some awesome games in the near future!

I’ve heard great things about it! The lack of a solo mode and modularity is why I haven’t picked it up, but I may need to take a closer look if it might work as a multiplayer experience. Such a great team of artists!
