Rules lite but lacking the meat to be able to run more than a one-shot. Not the system to use for a full campaign of weird or dark fantasy.

This game is a lot of fun. Whenever i facetime my grandchildren they enjoy playing games with me so finding this game made it easier to interact. Definitely a fun game for ages 9 and up (if explained right).

Only quirk is sometimes you must pat the matrix on the side to get the pieces to go, which i see as a feature. I throughly enjoy the way this thing is built, and the colors are beautiful. Quality is great as the pieces are sturdy.

Things you didn't understand while readying the instruction are very clear once you start playing. It's a strategy game that requires a little more cunning than anything, so it may be frustrating for the younger ones.

The single black squares are the worst offenders. The little black tiles seem to get stuck all the time. This tile is the worst offender.
