    The game is fun for a little while though has little staying power. I got bored after a few games. The controls are designed well, but the rules are confusing and poorly documented. The sound and graphics are primative. There is nice artwork, so I gave it a 2.

    A solid if somewhat yeoman-like sci-fi strategy game. [Mar 2004, p.79]
  2. It's great because it combines elegance, interesting gameplay choices, and the attraction of card-collecting in what has to be one of the very best pure game designs of the year.
  3. The balance between the board game / influence style of play and using cards to turn the tables on an opponent works out extremely well, and the amount of cards that you can get and combinations to add into your decks is impressive.
