(alas I didn't submit the review I did days ago).

Pianogeist is a bit of a challenge. a 2 influence stud dude, so a solid starter as long as you can back him up with extra dudes.

But - that 2 influence is no good to you camped out in the opposing home. And unfortunately the austerity on this dude is LESS, so no good when you both have zero money.

but this can combine nicely as an excuse to trigger Epitaph Branch Office.

and with the higher value it would be a decent slot in a Miracle deck so you can retreat with Walk the Path.
