Cool game ! Reminds me of Dispatch, with maybe more sense put in to who solves what crisis

Really liked the game loop, heroes phrases and designs are very cool, love that there is often a couple options for the job (personally, i liked to burn all the trees). Although i would like the ending to at least briefly depend on my choises, because when i tried to not do anything and at the end assign all the wrong heroes it still gave me the same ending where i prevent the eruption (i guess there was not enough time for that). And also more often than not i did not understand what characteristics hero will get for the job. Like, i wanted water, but it would always give me speed. But still, awesome card game concept!

The hero designs are really charming, and assigning everyone before the final crisis is a cool take on the countdown. For me the gameplay felt a bit light once I understood the job loop. Still, I liked the Dispatch-like presentation and would like to see more.

I like the unique character designs, gameplay is a bit lacking tho, but still enjoyed it!
