Abandon All Artichokes isn't your garden-variety card game!

A bumper-crop of prickly produce has overtaken your patch, and there's only one choice: abandon all artichokes! Prune your deck by harvesting fresh vegetables, each with a special power that lets you swap, discard, or compost cards. You need luck, strategy, and a green thumb to grow a winning hand!

Little fun game, good tin

Fun card game

Easy to learn, quick to play. Box is unnecessarily weird and hard to put on a shelf

Quick, Easy and Ruthless at Times

Excellent game for starting out and getting people to warm up! Discarding and replacing cards (deck building in a way). Steal cards from other players allowing others to ruthless. Simple strategy and quick play through allows for multiple games with quick sucession. Even excellent for your children - they can memorize the vegetables and their easy actions. This allows younger ones to play with the whole family.

Quick Fun Deck Builder

this is just such a great small easy and quick little deck builder / destroyer. Easy to grasp and plays quick. gamewright bringing the great quality as always. highly recommend this one for a filler or anyone with kids around

Quick, Fun & Humorous

This is a family friendly deck builder where your sole objective is to Abandon All Artichokes. Its fun, quick and silly. The only thing I would like to see improved is the tin insert but overall the game is a great time for all ages.

Great game!

A great shedding game where you play poker hands and power cards.

Nightfall Lite but Not Nightfall 2.0

If you liked Nightfall, but thought individual creature combat was too tedious? You'll probably like this.

If you liked Nightfall but thought the game was too slow to ramp up, or too long to finish/hand out all wounds, you'll like this.

If you thought Nightfall's "Private Archive" claims ended to overpower the game based on luck of the draw, you'll like Unchained's 3x3 market grid.
-----
As far as deck builders go, I like Unchained. It will take awhile to really know the card power combos. The symbols look overwhelming at first, but are kind of intuitive once you're used to how the cards work. Combat is total offense vs total defense and result is one fatigue (wound). So no MTG-ish "creature 1 attacks player B and creature 2 takes 3 wounds against player C." It does speed up and simplify the game a lot. The 3x3 card market is brilliant. You can get cards you want and/or clear out cards you don't want your opponents to get. Much more variety of cards to cycle through than 8+2 archives = 10 cards to choose from per game.

Solid 4/5 all around. I'd give 5/5 if there was a happy medium in combat between Nightfall and Unchained. Not as super simplified as Unchained, but not like Nightfall's individual cards combat. Maybe a power on some cards "stays in play after combat" so there's a larger chance of different strategies than "I punch you, you punch me, repeat"

Funbrick Series - Viking See-Saw (Import)

I never got the game
