- Strategy is needed, but also lucky (so not so experienced players have a chance)
Bring good combination of acquisition of raw materials, construction of houses and purchase tickets, the points at the end -
- There is a possibility other players to "annoy" (blocking cards, stores or raw materials)
- The look and the material are just beautiful and high quality (wood instead of plastic)
- Well-explained rules enable rapid entry
- The game takes a long time and will not be bored in between
- Whom the luck factor is not quite as appeals may still rely on tools (they are added to the dice)
Negative
- When two players of the game decreases enormously, the game is too easy then (despite limitations you no longer have to go hunting and cards are available very easily in a short time, the number of points the player explodes)
- In not so experienced players the card component has been poorly understood and bought indiscriminately or underestimated what in the scoring leads to disappointment at the end (also point out new players, that one should not hoard commodities)
- The raw materials rich in four players are often insufficient
- For my taste, it would in the final classification can give a little less points or more for the construction of houses
Conclusion: This game is well suited if you're looking for a full-length feature for mixed groups, but also for experienced players. The mixture of strategy and luck is well taken. Even if after several games with the same people familiar with the different basic State strategies of the players, each round you have to yet again adapt, because the other one just can also put obstacles in the way.
For two players, or for impatient people but I can not recommend this game.
