This is a great game once you learn the basic playstyle. I learned it with my son with the physical card deck. Playing the video version is super fun against the AI. Love this game!

Easy to play, on-line play is great with each match being only 10-20 mins long. Only have to buy the expansions if you want to, which you will. But then they are cheap-as-chips really.

The UI looks like it was created for Windows XP (or for mobile app), the AI speed runs every single play even on the slowest setting, the logs to figure out wtf just happened to you is god awful and yet.... Why am I so addicted to playing this insanely fun (stupid) game?! 10/10 and now I'm going to buy the game cards IRL....
