What the critic said, round 1
Zugzwang Editions follows squarespace-foundations closely where it counts: the #111 index with white chapter interiors, two-word chrome, a numbered "( Opera )" transport rail, a % loader and a giant "Opera →" next-chapter bookend. The twist really is a new idea. The chessboard curtain, the move maps that draw as you scroll and a difference square that rides the moves give the brand one engine and give the red one meaning.
