I picked this up recently in a trade. I like worker placement games and this looked interesting.

What I didn't realise is that it is also an Action Point Allowance game. In particular, the number of movements you get depends on your number of servants on the stairs (plus bonuses). Thus it invokes the same kind of AP (analysis paralysis) in me that I get with all AP (action point) games. It just feels like work.

So just saying, if you don't like Action Point Allowance games, you probably won't like this.

I think it should list Action Point Allowance under the game mechanics.
