Highlights
Quality
Easy to learn, high quality components, and also a solo variant (with an app).
Quick and easy to learn game that uses a popular mechanic in modern board games, worker placement.
5 rounds of play or so the game just took off and the rules were barely glanced at after.
The components are of a good quality.
Shipping
Amazon shipping odd getting worse and worse though.
Packaging/appearance
You get a lot of game in a surprisingly small box, and all the materials are high quality.
Packed out on the table it looks inviting!
Competitiveness
Raiders does this in a very simple and slightly different way than most other games.
You never know who is going to win until the end and there are multiple different strategies for winning.
