    correction: this game was actually sent to me by Asmodee (although Z-Man is the publisher), i've edited the description accordingly

    "You can play a short game, which is six rounds, or a long game, which is seven."
    Well that doesn't sound so bad...
    "Each round has 12 phases."
    What is this, engineering homework?!

      I said "12 phases!?" out loud to myself and didn't absorb the next minute of the video. Is there such a thing as a game editor? I feel like game makers need one sometimes

    This is one of my favorite games of all time. If the board intimidates you with its 61 action spaces, my tip is don't think of it as 61 different actions, think of it as only 14 or so actions with 3 or 4 ways of doing each action.

    @Skycroft1000 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The expansion actually fixes a lot of the problems with this game, including problems you may not realize the game has - it gives you options to turn occupation cards into straight points if their bonus doesn't work out for you, makes animals much more viable, and really tightens up the game for fewer players which has the knock on effect of making some overpowered strategies at lower player counts not anymore. It transforms a good game into my single favorite board game, and I highly recommend it even if you haven't mastered with or are bored with the base game, unlike most expansion.

    I have a bit of a love/hate with worker placement games as they often don't give you a lot of opportunities to interact with other players. Nothing in this review seemed to indicate how you'd be engaged in multiplayer at all. Only a few worker placement games--like Tzolkin--make me feel like I'm not just kinda doing my own thing in a corner to hope to minmax points.
