In this game, players have to tightly budget their money to construct buildings from their player boards to the central board. Each building either produces a basic resource, or transforms a basic resource into an advanced resource. The resources are then used to either fulfill contract tiles, or can be sold on the marketplace, which shifts the values of the goods each time they are bought or sold. All of this is pretty typical euro faire, but the game shines in a number of exciting ways. The first amazing thing is that there are three types of resources printed on the contract tiles which have no physical representation. Rather, when you complete those contracts the corresponding type bumps up on the points track. At the end of the game, each resource scores for the player owning it, and the value of the scoring depends on the resource's relationship with the other 2 on the scoring track. Whichever is furthest along scores the least, and whatever players collectively have the least of scores the most. This is a fascinating dance. Another really fantastic thing is that at the end of the game the player with the highest number of unconnected settlements will score the most points. When you build, you have to either build adjacent to your stuff, which only serves to expand your settlement, rather than make a new one, unless you bump your 'shipping track' which allows you to build across rivers or along however many water spaces. This encourages players to build in a sort of a checkerboard fashion, which also encourages opponents to get up in your face. There's even a bonus you get for building next to an opponent which allows you to buy a good from the marketplace at a discount. Add to this a special scoring criteria at the end of each round, and fairly well balanced variable player powers, cute components, clear and consistent iconography, and a few other nice gameplay features that add to replayability even more, and you've got a really incredible game.
