What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The title advertises a 45–90 minute playtime, while the details list an estimated 60 minutes. The age and size details are also inconsistent: the title and recommended-age field say 14+, while another field says “144,” and the listing gives both 11.6 x 3.1 x 11.6 inches and “Compact (3.1 x 11.6 x 0.1 inches).” Confirm the version's timing, age guidance, and dimensions before relying on them. The game description also mentions research cards, while the stated component list names event cards instead.
