    This is one of my favorite card games ever. This version is very competent, but doesn't have a lot of flare. It's simple but gets the job done. If you are a fan of race or enjoy card games where you build an engine, then definitely check this one out.

    I like this a lot better than the BGA port, for sure. As far as Race goes, it's only a shame that it's popularity hasn't sustained more over the years for providing such a medium complexity experience given how quick and breeze the sessions of gameplay are.

    Love the card game and I love the mobile version of the game, but the steam implimentation is just a port of the mobile and the mechanics of the game are not fluent on a keyboard/mouse platform and make the game akward to play. The UI, scaling, and resolution could use some work... yes it adjusts to the resolution of your screen... but at higher resolutions the UI does not need to be as thick as it is which would…
