Reviews
Words of a Feather (One Board Family): “An impressive word game. Its presence immediately invites players into the game. With each game lasting less than 30 minutes, it’s a game that can hit the table multiple times during a game night.”

Lacuna (Unfiltered Gamer): “The type of game that can win over the harshest cynic. It’s straightforward and accessible, while still being engaging and a little mysterious. It sits in that sweet spot offering simple mechanics and decently challenging choices, but it does it in a completely refreshing way.”
