Mark ​

A mark points an item out: a circle, a box, an underline or an arrow drawn round it, standing off it by a little. Select the item, open its Effects menu and press the Mark card, and its Recipe holds the settings below. Until a mark is put down every setting is blank; the first one you set puts the mark down. Hover a row of the Recipe, or hold a finger still on it, and it shows what that setting does — the sentence this page lists for it — with Learn more leading to its section here; the value does not change.
