This game has the appearance of a dull bidding and tile placement game, but with a few plays it starts to grow on you. The game plays very quickly even up to 5 or 6 players. You bid on a tile, and if you get outbid you can move your bid (without changing the amount) to another tile your money can legally afford. Then you add the tile you won to your board, and it creates some payouts for you. Fine. The thing that makes this game special are the disasters, which slowly creep up on you and can take down your score a lot if you aren't prepared, and then the way the scoring works where you get the lower score of two categories. There aren't many 6 player games that can play smoothly and quickly like this, and the game works just as well with 2. :nostar: Art and components :star: Innovative mechanics :star: Handles 5 or more players :star: Good with min or max players :star: Low time between turns :nostar: Comfortable complexity :star: Re-playability :star::nostar::nostar: Enjoyment
