STORY:
"In the darkness of space, infernal forces are rising to the surface. Ancient energies, born in distant stars, has been welded into existence by the cosmos. Through endless time, they have been searching for a purpose. They have been searching for a place to belong, a place to inhabit. Across the constellation of stars, they found unsuspecting vessels to embody. They enforced their will upon the dust of space. Celestial beings, weak and fragile, but omniscient."
"As puppeteers, they weaved their plan, with strong strings of greed, corrupting spirits in distant realms. They grew stronger and gained lust for powers, enslaving beasts and undead creatures with their sinister play. They found their purpose within their own weakness, a prideful display, as they released wrath upon each other, for eternal dominance."
GAMEPLAY:
SINS is an aggressive push-your-luck deck-builder for two players. Every turn, you can either activate actions, gain power or give despair.
Shuffle the sins-cards together and deal 5 cards to the middle of the table to form the Realm. From here, you can buy or gain new cards throughout the game. Deal 10 starter cards to each player and draw 5 cards into your hand. The most sinful player at the table, is the starting player.
Play cards each turn to activate actions, gain power or give despair to your opponents. Push your luck and resolve for dominance. When a player has 1 dominance, that player is the winner.

Luring
Pretty decent game. The gameplay is not very much related to the theme but it should be part of an extended universe. The rule book is only available online. It wasn’t very precise at first but it has now been remade and it is good. It is fast paced, quite brutal and actually very fun. The cards are of very good quality and the artwork (if you like monsters and half naked demon girls drawn in the kitsch fashion of a 80’s heavy metal band artwork) is very good. A game lasts between 20 and 45 minutes and for me it is played best with two players. It also has solo rules, That I still have to test. Very nice filler game that I would recommend to everyone who likes competitive card battles.

Two-player deck-building game. Players play sin cards to with powers against their opponent's weaknesses. For every power unmatched with a weakness of the same colour, the defender suffers one despair. The player with the least weaknesses in his despair pile at the end of the game is the winner. New cards can be bought in the buy phase by matching power-icons with weakness icons of the same colour on the cards in market.

Females: pretty and in bikinis, males: hideous and fully clothed. Women in submissive poses, looking down / away, hair in their face - men staring straight ahead / dominating. All caucasian skin tones / bone structure. Gross. So tired of this adolescent trash.
