How it feels
A contemplative turn-based puzzle of balancing island expansion, colony growth, and resource management against the constraints of a card deck.

What players say
Players enjoy the core deckbuilding and tile-laying loop, calling it a relaxing hex puzzle akin to Dorfromantik with resource management. The six scenarios feel samey to some, and higher difficulties highlight balance problems. Others note card text bugs and a lack of variety that holds the game back.
