Finally, a party game that actually rewards knowing obscure mechanics instead of just pop culture. The way restrictions stack on each other gets surprisingly tense — we spent a full hour arguing whether a tile-laying game with memory elements counts.

James ★★★★★

Opened this in the car on the way home and we immediately started quizzing each other. The way the restrictions stack on top of each other is genius, honestly didn't expect to get that competitive over a tiny wallet game.
