Aren't there a ton of cards that are really strong and can basically win you the game? I thought that was half the fun in game like this, and why the play time was comparatively short.
You obviously didn't read my post about Wings letting my son turtle to a victory. So no it wasn't a fast game and yes it single handily won it for him. He also was the first player and therefore was able to get first dibs on the card.
Now I have only seen the card come out twice but it won the game for the player both times. The only way to combat that card is to hope for a lot of 3s on the dice for VPs or have more then 3 players playing the game and everyone is targeting the player with Wings in Tokyo. If someone decides they are not going for claws then yeah its most likely a done deal unless the Wings owner can't roll cubes.
Shrink Ray and a few others are powerful cards but they can be countered by rolling hearts or playing Wings.
