How's the gameplay?: See Issue X works by drawing cards whenever you wish to start a new arc for your character, that card can be blank, in which case you'll create a brand new story point, or already written on, in which case you must somehow tie that plot point into your current arc, this goes on over and over until you have an expanded superhero universe, with strange and nearly incomprehensible plot threads and characters! Welcome to comics baby, its the wild west down here!

What's the setting (If any) like?: N/A, its a setting building game, you're creating the world!

What's the tone?: Goofy! you're doing capeshit, while serious storylines are possible, most of the time you'll be fighting against villains called something like Paste Pot Pete

Number of Players: 1-7 players,

Malleability: N/A

Resources: The game has a digital play toolkit, so you don't need to use playing cards

Why I like/recommend this game: Why I like/recommend this game: See Issue X Is a blast! you'll slowly create a bizarre multiverse of critters, heroes, and other bizarrities, and you could always use that setting for something else in the future if you want! It's a good time for any involved
