Thanks to Building Blocks of Tabletop Game Design from G. Engelstein and I. Shalev.

How did Geoff Engelstein and Isaac Shalev define this mechanism? How is it used on BGG?

Let's look at a few examples!

How does it impact the game? How will it affect the experience at the table?

How versatile is it? Which games will it fit? What will it work well with?

When is it good? Who would enjoy it?

When is it bad? What issues might there be when adding it to a game?

Have we used it in any games? Would we?
