How similar is this game to well know game? Just want a comparison so I may envision the game better.

I'd say it's slightly similar to A Game of Thrones - LCG, with about half of the complications and with less things to try and remember. You can be clever without over taxing your mind after multiple 10 hour days at work and still enjoy this game. This is a great group game because the amount of time for each game doesn't make you feel like you just lost 2 hours of your life playing a game you knew you were loosing after one hour into it. Each game is 30 to 45 minutes long at most and the set up time is minimal, which is a plus.

The only other card games I've played are Dominion, Catan, Pokemon - which I can't seem to enjoy, and Citadels - another good game.
