Reviews
A Fake Artist Goes to New York (iSlaytheDragon): “An excellent party game, whether your group likes drawing games or Spyfall or not. It’s a consistent source of fun that even a big group can participate in.“

Automobiles (Boards and Bees): “I really like the ways you can build your pool of cubes, as well as cull them. The customizable part is really interesting too, with different powers for the cards. This helps with variability of the system.”

Colt Express iOS (Board Game Quest): “So for me, Colt Express seems like it’s balancing on the cusp of being a really good app. The graphics are spectacular and the actual gameplay is very smooth. However the app is also missing some crucial features, such as local pass-and-play, the ability to speed up game play, and easy online matchmaking.”
