I like the large width of the bag so it can hold many games width wise.
(Also, what else will I do with 100 reward points?!)
A well designed re-enactment board game with civil war tactics at the forefront. Great 2 player interaction

We have played this game a few times. We are really enjoy it. The one tricky thing it seems easy for many people to cheat by accident. You have to turn a card to show that it has been used, and for many it seems it is easy to forget it to rotate the card when you are getting a few cards completed in one turn. So, in summary, fun family game, mechanics are ok.
I have only played this as a 2-player so I can only imagine it improves at 3 or 4. Still, it's one of my and my partner's faves. We get obsessed for weeks at a time and take lunch breaks to play it through, despite the 90 minute avg playtime. Aesthetically, it hits the spot of many other nature themed games and strategy-wise it's a bit more complex than our other go-tos, Castles of Burgundy and Warsaw: City of Ruins. The only con is just that at 2-players there is not quite enough variation for optimal replayability. I'm hoping that the expansion will fix that? Still, it's an essential part of our collection.
This was a nice light game, with some interesting depth.
Really good "bingo-like" game. Just enough meat to keep interesting and short. Solid game!
Great light-medium game with tons of combinations. The ebb and flow of the shared map, landscape features, and animals makes for a dynamic, interactive game that I am already 10 plays into. One of the best games of 2019.
