Reviewers praise
- Modular setup lets players mix different card sets so games stay varied
- Simple, quick drafting mechanic that's easy to teach
- Colorful, appealing art and clear iconography
Reviewers push back
- Some scoring rules (like pudding-style or wasabi combos) can feel fiddly or confusing to explain
- The tin packaging is awkward to stack and can dent

Reviewers praise
- High-quality components: unique bird illustrations, dice tower, egg tokens, organizational trays
