What a delight of a game! Purchased this on a lark along with Valley of Flowers from the Ninepin Press physical shop, and I'm so glad I did.
I've played games with siblings and friends across three states; my brother's got my senior citizen mom into it. Searching out a good sacrificial publication is a fun game in itself (my sister chose The Atlantic, I chose an alternative weekly newspaper—learn from my mistake, definitely go with the more wordy magazine over the light local news).
When you get a lucky choice of paper, it's a huge high. When you get a rotten one, it's fun to rack your brain to try and extract a clue. And playing at snail-mail pace makes for a fun, slow-burn connection with a friend.
I got so jazzed about this game it's inspiring me to design other correspondence games.
Huge thanks to the creators, and highly recommended to anyone thinking of giving it a try.
