It's got
>card denial(digging/snapping)

>money drain effects
>card stealing

>player controlled round length
>worker placement denial
>hard blocking on association upgrades

It's super competitive at 2 players and at 4 you can literally attack every other player at the table with some actions. It's no Hansa Tin terms of interactivity, but it's definitely interactive and you're not going to win against a good player if you aren't interacting with them and denying them resources.
