TSS 2020 I don't know how to rate this one. There's something about it that is quite intriguing and fun in its asymmetry and game flow. The tug of war that plays out is definitely fun. However, we played 6 or so games in a row, and the giant only won once...and that was because we were both looking for and talking through the giant's moves. The nature of the asymmetry is imbalanced, not in strength or chance of win (because others have reported the exact opposite win), but rather in the depth of strategy. Jack is the racer. Peddle to the floor. The giant has to be clever and nefarious to slow him down. The onus of play seems laid at the giant's feet more often than not. And that translated into an intriguing and challenging but ultimately unsatisfying experience for us. Mystery Box to Aethubryn

A very quick 2 player game with asymmetrical powers. Although quite simple, it takes a little bit to get your head around how it all works to your advantage. We both enjoy this one.

Okay. It's very hard to picture what helps another player win and so it's fairly hard to plan ahead (in my mind). Especially as the giant, in the beginning of the game you aren't able to do very much and it isn't clear what you should be doing.
