Customer Review

There are games that are based on a simple basic idea such as mill or 17 and 4, which can be played without any problems. And there are games, which offer a variety of rules that make the game for the beginner quite complex. On to India! belongs to the second group and develops its rules on 15 pages in postcard format. For clarity, the main rules are again printed on small cards so that each player can orient, if something has been omitted. In short: the beginners, it has not exactly easy, but the rich variety of game paid quite a bit for the first arduous passage. After you have understood about what is to be noted: which technologies for what purpose are of interest when a new coastal city map should be uncovered or why it is so useful to buy fortifications and markets, as well as churches.

When away to India! nothing is left to luck. There are no dice and no special cards luck plays a crucial role. Alone in detecting the coastal town maps can help a little bit lucky. But that should not be a decisive game. On to India! is a strategic trading game, in which 99% of the skill of the player counts. Therefore, it is difficult to handle for younger players also due to the initially difficult rules. In addition to sophisticated rules that make any sense, the game impresses with its economy of the game material, which leads to a particularly good price-performance ratio.

You have to have together a round skilful strategists, so the game really is fun and is an inspiring competition. Of course you can also just somehow draw, but it's been around the search for the optimal winning strategy. For this purpose, any advice given in the extensive game instructions, however. The need to find out for yourself each already.
