Not too impressed with this roll and write. It’s lacking replay value and honestly doesn’t excite me. The engine building is cool but the same strategies are likely to be used each time, even with dice rolls. As a solo game, this does get better, but still feels bland to me.

Reasonably engaging roll and write. But some ambiguity in rules meaning we probably played incorrectly - but couldn't be certain! 4 dice. One for number of actions, the others for commodities. Impressive number of unique solo player scenarios - laminate first!

Interesting variety in the solo campaign. The multi-player game is nice, but quite repetitive. Some buildings clearly better than others.
