Jonathan, how hard is it to pick up a new game like this, especially with all players being new to it?

I wonder how often the juice is worth the squeeze.

This one took a fair bit of time investment to make sure we knew all the rules. Probably about 6 to 8 hours of reading rules and watching videos. It's not an especially complicated game, but it's the sort of game that you need to know all the rules quite well or the game won't play as intended. And even having educated ourselves about the rules, I'm still not sure we really played the game well from a strategic point of view, as I noted in the article
