NPI always had a bit of a tense history with hidden movement games. Elaine outright does not like them at all (more on that in our last episode of Talk Cardboard) and Efka often finds one side quite dull to play. So when one of them makes at least one team member of NPI happy - we know it’s going to be a hit.

But City of the Great Machine changes up the formula so much, it leaves us asking, is this even hidden movement anymore? And does that even matter when the game is very evidently quite good.
