Mike and Zee have the best DT reviewer dynamic (for me). I can't put my finger on it, but it just feels the most approachable of the reviews.

[@robscarpelli]

I’m done buying card games I have more than I need….wait this looks cool a nice subtle 2 player game, when can I buy it!😂

[@brucebush5744]

Just when I’d nearly convinced myself that I didn’t need any more 2 player games or small card games. Theme + art and, indeed, that subtle gameplay does make this one look very tempting

[@mydemon]

I can always use more 2 player games..

[@IndianaGeologist]

I wish Mike was still in Florida, these in person reviews with Mike are terrific.

[@eVanDiesel]

Seems like something I would like!

[@JasonLaw29]

Seems like a game that's right up my alley. Tough for me to bring to the table though.

[@IamSalva]

How is a 5 minute 2 player game with rules so easy that your grandma understands them "hard to bring to the table"?

[@KenCantrell]

Reminds me of 2p Coloretto in terms of decision space. Curious if I would have the same feeling after playing.

[@sadekhanna]

Reminds me of Hanamikoji and It's a Wonderful Kingdom a bit, but I prefer those two.

[@alan4043]

What if in one of those three discarded cards at the beginning there was one of the districts? Is it just not possible to win like that then?

[@kennychan6645]

This game play felt so interesting yet it’s disappointing seeing the score of 7/7.5. Pretty sad ending.

[@conillet]

Especially because Zee doesn't explain why he rated it much higher five years ago.

[@tonycork2pa469]

Any game play crossover with "Trendy"?

[@conillet]

Huh? The original "Throne & Grail" got a Seal of Excellence (!) from Zee, so how come the improved version gets a lower rating?

[@chriswoosley4525]

he said it got a 6. Is that right?

[@dangerousbeans2907]

The card size decision is just stupid. Pointless and inconvenient.
