Born-of-Ashes
It is definitely something that requires a few plays to get the knack of the mechanisms of subtlety. The first game or two will be very obvious plays and a bias toward the undead faction. This is something supported by the designers. But I feel the art style and options to shift between your two factions will make that learning curve enticing rather than a barrier. The game is very simple to pick up on. There is a lot of luck in the shuffle of the cards so my instinct is that the sweet spot is with 4 players, enough that no one faction is dominated, but not too many that you can count on every combo being present. Wow, I actually like the 2 player a LOT. The back and forth feels like a much more even tug of war. and there is a good chance that one of the factions is not represented so there is a chance that both players lose. Don't just rule it out right away, give it a shot!

Print and play. Played four games at player counts of 4, 4, 5, and 6. The lack of tension in the reveal of the hidden leader makes this an underwhelming release.

2022-05: This feels like the card game version of War of Whispers with a lot of the same good and bad parts. I will say that my issue with War of Whispers where the initial deal of loyalties can decide the game is also present here, but also a game is a fraction of the time so I find it less off putting.
