   I really enjoyed the first of the trilogy and the art of the cards. Initially I didn't think I'd like this 2nd game as much since the art doesn't play much of a role. However, the multi-level decisions to be made to win are very intriguing. I've only played solo multi-handed, but I think this would be a great 2 player game with each player controlling 2 colors for offense and defensive moves and you keep only your lowest score. Not even tried the combo with earlier game, so this game has a long future of good gaming. Eventually I'll pick up the 3rd one.

   My least favourite of the trilogy. It's not bad, but not great. I enjoyed the puzzle more in the mixed game of Golem 1+2, particularly the cycle of playing cards and using them for movement. Adding the cards essentially allows you to reach a point where the board spaces don't matter much though, and the game starts feeling like a weird version of the base game with a board tacked on.

   Plays best at 3 players, similar to the original, but with a little more meat....Tom prefers the first over this, but rates this game. Also combines with the first to make a bigger game.
