Funny, the theme, and how the theme works with the mechanics, is what I like most about this game. It is mathy, but probably more of a calculated risk game. Also, some of the strongest plays seem to involve chucking out the math and throwing caution to the wind for big gains. Ties nicely into the theme of risk taking and entrepreneurship.
Thanks for posting. I've been enjoying your reviews, especially since you have been reviewing deeper games like Brass, Caylus and such.
However, I was disappointed in this review. Since you didn't have any pieces on the board to illustrate with, it made it very difficult to follow along with your explanation. I came away with very little understanding.
I think so, Brain, but if we have nothing to fear but fear itself, why does Eleanor Roosevelt wear that spooky mask?

Thank you for the constructive criticism. I'll keep that in mind for the future. Not sure why I didn't do it this time...
