Welcome to Reckoning

Another light-to-learn but difficult-to-defeat one. The BGG Link is here. What a surprise - I'm gettin' yet another ass-whoopin', but maybe I can pull it off. I need 4-of-a-kind and as you can see at the bottom-center of the photo below, I couldn't be much further away. The card in the lower-left with the guy aiming a large revolver gets moved to the right under each one of the 5 cards above it. You need to deal with each of the 5 in one way or another. After you do that, another 5 cards come out and from left to right, you deal with 'em, etc. It might be eligible for the "train game" category - small footprint, quick set-up/break-down, and play-time <45mins (was your train commute under 45mins, Z?).

Game in progress.

Annoying foes to deal with.

Places to visit for things and actions you'll need.

One of two characters and the Reminder card.

Just looking at the cards the overall gameplay reminds me of Gate. Did you try that one?

I like the cartoon artwork of this game. I notice you have printed the rules yourself: don't they come in the small deck box?

I did play (and own) Gate and see the similarities. I like the artwork of WtR, too.

Regarding me printing out the rules, yes, there was a rulebook in the little box. However, in many of my smaller rulebooks, the upper-case letters are only 1mm high (or only slightly taller), which is uncomfortably small for me. This is from the Mint Privateers rulebook. Check-out the “R” in Roll at the center-left – pretty close to 1mm. Of course, the lower-case letters are even msaller.

Since I don’t wanna have to use one of these to read the aforementioned pee-wee font rulebooks,

I’ve been printing them out and puttin’ ‘em in sheet protectors, then into this notebook (the cover is a WIP). It’s a ~6.4cm binder and it’s already overflowing.
