After the first play this became one of my favorite dexterity games. In addition to the great bits and the innovative yet simple mechanics, this game puts me into the captain's seat. Most important, it is hard for people not to care what others are doing. While this game certainly revolves around individual solitaire play, you must become engrossed in what others are doing because they are going to leave you with your position (ala Hansa). I have a bend in the board, and I have to say that this is the only game I know of that benefits from having a warped board -- it creates tension as you go over the fold. I use a variant that takes this game from a 6 to a 9. The game does perhaps last a bit too long, potentially an island may never be rolled and the game could then never end. I would recommend using my tried and true variants. After every round, take one good off each island with the most goods. My other rule is for the cards. When going to the white card island, if you draw a keeper you draw again, if you draw another keeper you should give it to someone, you should continue until you get a Command Card or a Rule for all Card (if you get a Rule For All card then you must roll). UPDATE: This is just flat out the best game of its kind." --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "utah county boardgamers association" group.
