Hey all,
I just wanted to say I'm really psyched about Zark City. I've always loved Zarcana/Gnostica, but the complex rules kind of made me shy away from trying to teach it to anyone. Can't wait to finally try it out sometime!

Oh boy, that just gave me an idea to combine Fluxx and Zark City. (Where you'd have to control a goal and the keepers that satisfy that goal, and New Rule cards are "in play" as long as a player controls them.) I'm going to have to think about this...

One of those rare things that can help sometimes, I guess.

I played several games on the weekend. I like it!
