A really nice design by Stefan Feld. I'm not usually a big fan of tile placement but this game does it in such a way that keeps me interested all game. Resources are in short supply but feel so rewarding when you do obtain them. Many different ways to score without becoming too overwhelming. This game just hits the right sweet spot for casual/strategic Euro. Theme and production let it down a bit, but the game itself is solid.
