Last Saturday was my first all-day Game Day of the year. It was nice to get back into the swing of things, especially since I felt like the new year came and went so quickly because I got sick.

I had purchased the game at BGG Con after playing a game in the Portal Games booth. A worker had billed the game as a cross between Dixit and Clue. I was intrigued and sat down to play a game. After playing it and seeing the beautiful, mysterious artwork, I immediately purchased it. Good thing, too, as I had bought one of the last few copies at the convention!
