No point in mentioning every web reviewer that has reviewed something in the lead sections of works, that goes on the reviewers' respective pages. We don't mention that Roger Ebert reviewed the film on every film page either.

** As pointed out in the Spoony One's review, starting from ''Nightmare II'', more and more sets of cards started to be introduced that broke the game flow. Chief among them was ''Nightmare III'''s "spell cards" - there were several named spells, but they wouldn't work unless you had a specific pair of cards from the deck ''and'' someone read the activation phrase off a specific time card, which was virtually impossible to do in the course of an hour-long game. Likewise, "Witch's Trade" cards that expressly gave one player permission to ask another for a specific spell card wouldn't work because the one being asked wouldn't voluntarily give an advantage to someone else.
--> '''Spoony''': So assuming you get the ''two'' exact spell cards you need out of this entire deck (sprays all the spell cards into the air), which you won't, and someone else gets the time card with the activation phrase you need to play the spell, which they won't, and the time card hasn't already expired, which, trust me, it has, yeah, ''then'' you can play your spell.
