   Interesting mix of dice-based worker placement / mega-rondel sort of mechanics. Building the pyramid gives it that table presence. Tons and tons of flexibility in that you can use tiles to change just about every spot on the board so it's a new set-up every time you play. There is a *lot* of fiddly book-keeping with all the various tracks and round markers and other markers which can get a bit annoying, but it's not insurmountable. Perhaps a bit too points-salad-y, but that's par for the course these days.

   Very interesting and somewhat unusual euro with a dice worker rondel. Lots of choices and lots of variability in set up.

   This is a great medium heavy Euro. Looks overwhelming at first, but it plays very smoothly and isn't too hard to learn if you're used to this style of game. Really enjoyed my second play and leaving it at a 9 for now, although there are some things I'm not so sure about such as the flip luck with the pyramid and stair tiles, ascent speeding up the game sometimes and the relatively few but often very similar action spaces. With that said, there is something very interesting about the pipping up, combos, techs and planning out how to maximize your score. After a few more plays, this continues to hold my interest. I definitely haven't mastered the game and it remains fun to play.
