One of the most joyful games I haver ever played in years, so in love of being a game and having you play it.

With a background in pre revolutionary France, you play a game of spies and court intrigue cheating all the way through a conspiracy in card games. Learning each new trick is a wonderful experience that makes you feel like a true arnaqueur of the aristocracy, grinning all the way to the card saloon of the high nobilty while you take both their livres and secrets.

But not only that, the game is also beautifully drawn, reminescent of drawings and sketches of the period with vibrant colors and quite articulate animations. But the music steals the show for me, with a live orchestra performing classical pieces and folkloric songs of the different people that inhabited France during the tumultous time.

All in all, an incredible experience that just goes to show how amazing gaming can be as a medium to tell a story.
