Card drafting games are games in which players pick cards from a limited subset, such as a common pool, to gain some advantage (immediate or longterm) or to assemble hands of cards that are used to meet objectives within the game.
Card Drafting
Hand management games are games with cards in them that reward players for playing the cards in certain sequences or groups. The optimal sequence/grouping may vary, depending on board position, cards held and cards played by opponents. Managing your hand means gaining the most value out of available cards under given circumstances. Cards often have multiple uses in the game, further obfuscating an "optimal" sequence.
Hand Management
Tile Placement games feature placing a piece to score VPs, with the amount often based on adjacent pieces or pieces in the same group/cluster, and keying off non-spatial properties like color, "feature completion", cluster size etc.

Technically I've played this 3 times and I'm really looking forward to more. It's great to be able to wrap your head around what you need to do to make the most of your next couple turns but for me this has taken a few plays. There's a lot more interactivity, though, so it's hard to plan too much because other players may spoil those plans without even intending to. Everyone was following a noble visit of and I was the third person to be able to follow and I could only think to my self, "please don't build a tool shop, pleases don't build a tool shop!" I was lucky and sure enough, got that tool shop and was able to score it 3 times for 5 points each. Now, everyone I was playing was new, so I was pretty much able to do what I wanted. The downside to the amount of player activity is that you can't really plan too far ahead, especially if there are more experienced players, because they'll most likely take that tile you've been eyeing the past turn or so. Overall, great game that brings new ideas to the table. It's a nice change of pace having more interactivity in a Lacerda game, which make this game really stand out when compared to his other games.

Outstanding game with immense replay value and not that hard to learn. I've played it about 4 times 1v1 and a dozen on 1 vs "Lacerda". Do not let the "this game is very dense" or difficulty ratings discourage you because neither I nor my girlfriend found it that hard and we were surprised because of all the "this game is difficult" hype. After I played a few times in solitary mode until I beat Lacerda 3 level (out of 4) and studied the rules from a video, she learned the game in 20 minutes from me and one playthrough (which ended in a draw in wigs!) What may be the case is the game is kind of like chess. The mechanics are very straightforward, but the ramifications are vast. Is chess a hard game to learn the rules and play? No, a child learns it, and two similarly skilled players can have fun playing balanced games. However, to master chess is hard. This is how I see the depth of this game and what perhaps other players refer to as being dense. You can always look one further step next into the decision tree and then another and another. Luck from draws plays almost no relevance, 99% of information is displayed on the board and new information (new cards, clergy tiles, decrees) only shifts the conditions you need to adapt to. I have no doubt I would be destroyed by higher-skilled players. For reference, I found it easier to learn and play than games like Twilight Struggle or Through The Ages (both also great games). The mechanics are very intuitive, the game has a natural flow to it and the quality of the pieces, board, and game design is superb.

Beatiful game. Mechanics are simple yet it's all intertwined so it seems complicated. AP is also very common in this game so it can take a while to play 1 game.
