Gameplay

Players control a person who has inherited a circus in 19th century America. To prepare for a national competition, players travel the country and perform shows. This is done using deck-building mechanics. Players engage in card battles to impress audiences, playing cards to decrease their boredom. Players are given strategic choices, such as choosing to improve both their shows or an individual performer. Players' decks comprise cards based on which of three performers they select. New performers can be recruited in each city.[1]
