The writing in the game is whimsically and grotesquely mysterious. I figured out some of the mechanics, though I have more to find. I want to like this game more, but the pace of it was too slow for me. I think this game would work better as a choose-your-own-adventure style book. As it stands, the game has too much repetition that makes some of the writing lose its charm.
If you choose to play this game, I strongly suggest doing so with a pen and paper. Write down the card interactions. It will make your life so much easier.
