Alright you've convinced me , I'll see how I can get this one. Dice Tower was a bit divided on this one, but Chris Yi absolutely loved it giving it a 10/10, said it's the perfect filler.

Once again, you’ve tipped the scales for me and I will be getting this game. Looking forward to it. Thanks!

When I saw the gameplay of this I got cube rail vibes. After hearing your thoughts, I think I'm gonna seek it out.

At 9:00 how are they not breaking any rules? The 2 length road isn't connecting to a new city. How are they able to place onto two routes?

Yeah I think I messed that up haha

Looks like a mix of Through the Desert and Concordia

Looks good. Bring it Wednesday if your coming. I'm bringing in the hall of the mountain king just to make sure we have a game to play.

Would have been great to have this game in a smaller box

How does it compare to Pioneers do you know?

@ChairmanoftheBoard Жыл бұрын

I like Pioneers, but much prefer this one.

If you like the kind of decision space present in Caesar's Empire, you gotta try Portobello Market. Great dusty gem that fits right in with CE and Pioneers. Dolmen is another one to add.

This have mechanics similar to Ticket To Ride (TTR)? How is this different from TTR - please elaborate

@jokerES2 Жыл бұрын

There's no cards, either trains or routes. The gameplay pattern is covered comprehensively in the review.

Watch the video

Yeah, I got this game too. Rather pricey. When I get to play it I don't know... I guess "Dicetower Chris" inspired you also? ;-)

It’s chaos at 4/5 players Almost 0 strategic control Especially if there are players who are setting up the next player and you aren’t that next player I have no idea how you liked it, given you affinity for strategic games This is a filler alright but nothing close to a 10/10 for me I rated it a 6.5 and our top 100s have a lot in common. I’m utterly surprised, borderline shocked, by this review. The depth in this game is nearly the same as TTR, which is almost nothing. I’ll give it a try at 2p and I expect it to shine given the increased control, but I’ll not playing this at 4/5p again. It’s madness

@ChairmanoftheBoard 7 ай бұрын

Still love this game. I always play it at 3p though.

@@ChairmanoftheBoard I know you do That’s what shocked Me I got this game after I watched this video As I did Pergamon, qin, world exchangers and SO MANY MORE As I hinted at, 3 might work better But 4/5 is no go for me It’s random chaos at those high counts Which side of the board do you use at 3? I’ve heard some say 4/5 p side works well at 3 too

I've only used the recommended boards for the player count

It sounds like an abbreviated Railroad Tycoon/Railways of the World/Age of Steam/Steam, which is a sort of endorsement. Lack of beige kills it for me, though.

@ChairmanoftheBoard Жыл бұрын

I would be super keen for a serious beige version!

This was kind of flat experience for me, every single thing you do gives points so there was barely any tension or excitement, and it wasn't super difficult to math out the best move at any given point. Also the constant scoring of roads after every single turn is really irksome in a game as light as this

I suppose that's the great thing about the hobby. Multiple takes on the same game.
