If you played TwilightStruggle, you’ll have the general idea of what’s going on here. But the two player sides are quite different in how you approach them. Very deep strategy, game, and with lots of different possibilities for scoring a victory, you can take different approaches, which keeps things exciting.
There’s a bit of a learning curve, because there are so many different things to keep track of… It seems like a lot at first, but the best approach is to just dive in and start playing, esp. a live opponent. You’ll get your butt kicked the first time for sure, but watch what your opponent does, and the lightbulbs start to flash, like “ah, that’s what you’re supposed to be doing.” It all starts to click, and once it does, it’s really not that difficult to play after all, but the strategy is deep. Highly recommended. Play smoothly on an iPad Pro.
