Initial comments

  • "with some seeing it as a boon and others as a detriment" - a 'boon'?
  • "and as rewards for optional missions encountered through the app" - for completing optional missions might sound clearer
  • " Another type of card, relics, allow players" - maybe Another type of card, known as relics
  • "The golems, cards, and game board are covered in tiny magnetic dots" - 'tiny' sounds unencyclopaedic. How about small?
  • "Backers could get the base game with a pledge of $55" - why pledge? Does this mean if they donated 55 dollars they would receive the game?
  • "Yahoo Tech called it "hefty"" - stylised as 'Yahoo! Tech' (without the italics)
  • No dead links

It's a nice article and I like the idea of this innovation! Once all of the above are clarified this this should pass.   JAGUAR  15:10, 8 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Jaguar: Thank you for the review. I've made all of the suggested changes except for changing the word boon. I'm not sure if you're asking what it is (in which case, it's "something to be thankful for; blessing; benefit"), or if you're asking for me to change it. If it's the latter, please pick a word you like better and either swap it out yourself or let me know, and I'd be happy to do so. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 23:21, 8 January 2016 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for addressing them quickly! 'Boon' isn't something I come across a lot, but anyway this article meets the GA criteria. Well done   JAGUAR  12:47, 9 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

I can't find RS for this, but (as the owner of the game), it's obvious. Reddit and BGG confirm this, but outside forum posts, nobody is talking about this. Point is, the app is down (closed source), styluses break down or don't pair with new Bluetooth 5 devices, so for years now, this game is not playable outside maybe of few individuals who still have old Bluetooth 4 devices and working styluses. Anyway, I do wonder if we can "update" the article and reference this to BGG or reddit somehow, given it's non-controversial and no more reliable sources exist?
