The designer probably showed it at Essen or the Gathering of Friends
and it built up a slow following and buzz.  I do know that is one of
the mainstay commercial abstract strategy games, like the Gipf series,
and Blokus, that it is im****tant to have on the Tour, so I am lucky
Boardspace is running it.  I need to get in touch with the designer
again regarding it being on the schedule.
