This game is a great addition to the original. It helps add in much needed excitement if you have played through the original a bunch but it seems to play pretty similarly each time due to it only having one boss of each type. If you combine it with the original it is an awesome deckbuilding game. And the gold cards really do add something new. but the game still ends sooner then I would like unless people specifically allow the game to extend.

This is a deck building game in the style of “Market based” there are piles of pre-choosen cards 6 out of 12 and you can purchase as many as you can afford per turn. Which you then instantly discard to build up your deck.

This game is very silly and is played best when you have a group of people that can really enjoy the absurd aspect of playing a game where you can touch wieners :D.

The mechanics are all pretty simple but can definitely play into some rather complex turns as the game progresses.

I feel like the green cards generally feel slightly under powered as you really require red cards to win the game in the end.

Overall though I really love penny arcade and as a first deckbuilding game this is very accessible to people less familiar with some of the more complicated mechanics of card games.
