Not only is it simple and intuitive—once you understand what each coin can do—it’s also customizable. The game comes in two different boxed sets, which are fixed (all the same), but you get more coins than you need to play in each. Also, you can combine sets to come up with ships entirely of your own design. This makes it easy to expand the game should it take off too.
