Interesting to hear. When I played it, I wished the publisher was less reluctant to use words, just combining symbols with a single word would have cleared up the overview by so much. My group(4p) played the tutorial for 3 hours after watching 1h of instruction video and decided we are not going to play this regularly enough to ever get over the required training barrier. Seems you guys are more fit, and it really looks beautiful. Enjoy!

I actually adore the use of symbols because it becomes language agnostic and you don’t have to learn all the game rules, just follow the icons and you’re good. Once you play it one time and internalize symbology it’s really smooth, I suggest trying a full game that’s a low complexity scenario so you get to explore everything and it will click better
