Although it's not really like Puerto Rico at all, Lord of the Rings, the coop game, would probably be a closer fit to that type of game than War of the Ring, which is very long and very large and a much more complex game than any of the ones you've mentioned (though I really hope to play War of the Ring sometime soon, as it looks great for what it is). Also, War of the Ring is essentially a 2 player game, although it can be played with 4 in teams. Lord of the Rings, the coop game, can be played with 2-5 players, and also plays very well solo (you control 2 or more of the hobbits yourself). You can see my video coverage of the LOTR coop game series at YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/Grudunza
