Origins: First Builders

GaGarfieldstar2.0

If more than 1 player goes for the same layout you won't win, because you need the same building colors. I would say it's broken. Because if someone always buy the building you need the new one place is always getting more expensive. And if you can't score the layouts, you will definitely lose. No theme, but I liked the dice mechanism.

Es un juego que tiene una temática muy atractiva pero que se ve opacado por una preparación algo tediosa y algo complicado de explicar a nuevos jugadores. Lo bueno es que luego en la práctica es fácil de jugar. En mi caso la temática y mecánica de loa dados compensa todo eso.

Might not be everybody's cup of tea, but I enjoy the flavor a lot. I dont see where people complain about "randomness" ... worker dice are purchased knowing the potency of them, their evolution is constant ... Got my own complains in the colors chosen, could've been clearer. And the resources can be easily mistaken ones for others. Nonetheless, willing play :)
