I had high hopes for this game due to hype, theme and Lang's reputation. It never ends well when my hopes are that high but I still got mind blown by the awesomeness of this game. It's as beautiful as it is fun. It's not heavy in the rules but immensely strategic. Even if you get behind early on and you think you're done, you can very well end up winning the game if you play right (happened in my game) I never bothered ranking games on this site but this one is so awesome that I had to. Get it as soon as you can! It's the kind of game that you don't see time passing by and that will get you thinking the following day about what you could've done differently to do better at the game. I can't wait to play it again!

Based on first play, with 6 players (KS with almost all the trimmings). Thirty minutes in, there was a clear frontrunner. The next four hours did not change that. Final point scores were 97, 54, 30, and 3 in the 20's.

Good: Very nice artwork. Bad: Chaotic gameplay where it is hard do any predictions and tactics. Just like sitting and hoping for the best. You can fall behind really early the game. 1h into the game I know as was going to come last. Large period where i had nothing to do and that is no go for me. Summary: Good looking terrible game. Really terrible.
