Packaging/appearance
Everything was packaged very well and all parts have a designated spot in the box that makes for an easy clean up.
Also this is probably the best packaged game i’ve ever bought.
I opened the box, and i was blown away with the quality of the pieces and instructions.
Again the packaging, board, and components are top notch.
Competitiveness
It's easy to learn and a little more complex as compared to catan.
Resource management is similar to catan and is used to upgrade ships.

These guys actually want you to play their game instead of having it collect dust on the shelf because nobody wants to be bothered with pregame clean up duty
