I was able to get a game of this played at Dice Tower West. Tom Vassel taught the 3 of us the rules and we were off to a fantastic time. I was wary of the hype, but it is well worth it. Excellent game and a beautiful presentation. Can’t wait to get my copy.

Got a copy from my favorite game store last week and have had it on the table 5 times already. Everyone whose played really enjoys both the challenge of three tracks for advancement; as well as, the mechanic to execute a turn. So many ways to score points (openly and secretly) and so many ways to win. Great job.

I played this at GenCon. My group agreed this game vaulted into the top echelons, as it is deep, flavorful, and crunchy. The additional maps make for a varied experience and filling in your map with some of the special project tiles takes extra effort. We love this game.

For being #4 on BGG I am very surprised there are not that many reviews. I purchased this game about two months ago and have been playing it almost once a week lol. We absolutely love this game!!
