Dan Luu on Nostr: That reviewer also didn't like that you can't draw a goal where you already are. ...
That reviewer also didn't like that you can't draw a goal where you already are. There were move-to-objective games that let you do that 20+ years ago and getting a series of objections in the same zone was an automatic win, people don't design games like that anymore.
The same reviewer also panned the game as too light, but loves Whitehall Mystery, which is lighter and has a similar objective system. The most popular boardgame reviewer today literally doesn't know what they're talking about.
