Vibe's take

Tight and calculating – you win a trick and immediately do the arithmetic on whether you can still afford it, which turns every strong card into a question rather than an answer.

About this game

A time-travelling trick-taking game where fuel rods let you bend the value of any card you play, but winning more tricks than you have fuel left wipes out the entire round.
