Why It's On The List
  • Klaus "I'm makin' a mint off the isle of Catan" Teuber managed to make a Wild West themed Euro game that uses a press your luck element to create some really great suspense.
Tips & Tricks:
    • Poker is where you can lose the most ground if you're pushing to the front - make sure you've got a poker player in your hand.
    • The game is shorter than you first anticipate... be ready for it end slightly quicker than you'd imagine the first time you play.
    • Just because everyone else is spending big money does NOT mean you need to spend big money - payday is rough if you've got a lot of notes out there.
    Extras
    • Another game that was never published in English - but the components are language neutral. (The name of the game means "Merciless", btw.)
    • One nice thing - it will NEVER go longer than 45 minutes (there are three different game "timers" - and at least one of them is guaranteed to go off by that time).
    • Here's what I wrote about Gnadenlos! for The One Hundred.
