Overly complex for such a small game

I bought this on a whim. It seemed like it might be a nice little pocket game that I could take on holidays and play with my girlfriend, or someone I happened to be with. Unfortunately, after opening it up and looking through the rules, I have concluded that it's not a game for non-gamers (e.g. my girlfriend). It's incredibly complex, and although I think I just about understood the principles after looking at a youtube rules explainer, it still relies heavily on interpretation of the (fairly subtle) colours and iconography shown on the cards, since there is no cheat sheet that explains what all the symbols mean.
I'm afraid I can't give you a review of what it's like to play, since this complexity put me off even giving it a go. Perhaps at some point, I'll give it a try with someone who is as much of a boardgamer as I am.

If you not an absolutely hardcore board gamer with a hardcore gamer friend to play this with, I suggest you stay clear of this one.
