An interesting subject.

1. Does it instil a sense of wonder in me, does it spark my imagination, do I want to explore the setting?

2. Could I get my friends to play, or more recently, can I play it solo? Will it be fun to play solo?

3. Does it have good mechanics? How simple or elegant are they? Can I easily adapt or change things I don’t like?

4. What are the miniatures like? Can I use other miniatures? What are the hobby implications that this game will get me to do?

5. Do the makers actually care about the product or is this a cash in? Is there a community? Is there excitement about this?
