Explanation and review:
[note: this is NOT the roll and build version, but the full game]
I just got this game to play with my good friend thousands of miles away (due to the following note):
This can be played by people in other locations who also have the game using Zoom, as per this comment under a YouTube video (and mentioned in the first video below):
Another good point is that it plays well with physical copies across the world, using Skype or whatever, and calling the pieces bingo style!

Overview with some explanation:
I have the first map and ordered the full game. It is a roll and write game that can be played coop, competitive or solo. It also can be played as a legacy game. It ties together with a graphic novel(s). It employs computer logic and hacking. And you can play it for free while you wait for the final printed game to be delivered at Christmas NEXT YEAR :)
