1st play: Ugh - this game was not awesome. The art is beautiful but I'm not even sure what the point was. The mechanics don't make sense and the theme is really muddled. Don't need to play again.

Although I would say this is an overproduced simple card game, it does it so well that I am glad its been so well produced. It is a great game. I will say that after only playing the base game several times it can get stale in a shorter period of time than most standard box games. But I have heard good things about the expansions so I will definitely be looking into adding them to my collection based on how much I enjoyed Abyss.

It landed surprisingly well in my collection. I didn't expected it to get such good reactions from my friends and myself. The rules before trying it out seemed very foggy and strange, but once played, the game shines with its pure originality. And it's not just original to be original and therefore very clumsy, it's original, fresh and polished, it has some mechanics, that feel new, work great and makes this game unique. In advance it has amazing art design, it's beautiful, and though it's lore is not described too well, the theme is strong and it feels great. As for the components - they are all really good, especially I like pearls as currency, awesome idea.
