      It’s enjoyable. Nothing earth shattering but could be difficult for kids since most can’t even count change anymore. Maybe it could get one enthused about math? I have yet to impress anyone with my new math skills. 🤓 I have faith it will happen though!!

      Unfortunately this particular part let me down in a big way. One of these blades came apart on me during first flight causing a sudden and catastrophic imbalance at high RPM causing my tail to absolutely shred itself to pieces instantly which of course resulted in a major crash costing me a lot of damage to my 330 s and the trust of a friend who was standing nearby. There was no reason for the failure other than a faulty part. Absolute bummer.

      Your friends smile at you one moment and then raid you on the next turn. Stand by for adventure!

      Based on the popular TV drama, lots of action and treachery, just what you want in a game about Vikings.
