    This is an area majority game where players compete to win tiles, and then those tiles help them compete for resource majority points. There are special building effects that can allow players to make clever moves like changing the layout of the board. It's not a bad game, although it can be difficult to impossible to stop the early leader from winning, and the feel of the game was done better for me in Guilds of London. ☆ Art, Iconography and components functional ★ Clever or interesting mechanisms ★ Reasonably low downtime between turns with mildly AP players ★ Multiple plays stay interesting ★ Low or mitigatable luck elements ★☆☆☆☆ Raw enjoyment
