11

12

13

15
+ * Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
16
+ * Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.

+ <numplays>124</numplays> <comment>This game was my obsession for a while, and I&#039;m glad to say that after playing it a bit, the obsession is over, but this is definitely still a game I will play.
32
+
33
+ The only serious problem with the game is that it&#039;s easy to fall out of contention early in the game, and once that happens, you just go through the motions for the rest of the game.
34
+
35
+ This rating reflects the game system as a whole; the Rust Belt map that comes with Age of Steam rates a 6 for me (though I think it&#039;s a great map to teach the system).</comment> </item>

41
+ <numplays>27</numplays> <comment>My feeling on this game is that it&#039;s pretty good, but that the hand you&#039;re dealt can almost guarantee a loss. If you get the right combination of cards, there can be a snowball effect on how well you do purely because of the cards (Patron &amp; Lazy Student come to mind).
42
+
43
+ I just don&#039;t feel like I have *fun* when playing this game; it&#039;s not as bad as being a farmer myself, but there are plenty of other games I enjoy more.
44
+
45
+ Update: Considering selling all of my Agricola stuff. Just have no desire to play this anymore. Le Havre is similar but so so so much better.</comment> </item>

+ <numplays>16</numplays> <comment>One play, 4-player, with pollution &amp; famine. We called the game after 4 hours, as it appeared I was about to be eliminated, and the other players were still a long way from winning. And we had run out of graves an hour before that.
70
+
71
+ My opinion of the game is nicely summed by PaulGrogan: &quot;Its a computer resource management game transferred to a boardgame. Not much player interaction, can be a bit fiddly. Still not even sure if there is much of a game in this.&quot; I even said to one of the players, &quot;I&#039;m just not sure it really works as a _game_.&quot; And it seems more than a bit fiddly to me, this is just out-and-out fiddly.
72
+
73
+ Update: Played again last night, and I&#039;m not sure if it&#039;s because things clicked, or just because I played with a different group, but I quite liked it. I already ordered it and look forward to playing again soon!</comment> </item>

159
+ Even if you don&#039;t like abstracts, this is an abstract that most people seem to be able to get into. The bright colors and the tetris-like shapes make everyone feel comfortable playing it.</comment> </item>

197
+ The rules are a bit fiddly, but after 2 plays, it should be pretty straightforward. I&#039;m still playing a mix of strategies every time I play and finding new ways to win (or come really damn close, I lost a 3-player game 176 to 177 on 7/13/08).</comment> </item>

+ <numplays>35</numplays> <comment>Very interesting game, many paths to victory. I can see why this is rated highly. Time will tell if it has staying power.
276
+
277
+ Also, with 5, the game is far too random. Ganging-up on a player by moving the provost is quite common and makes for a much less enjoyable game.
278
+
279
+ Own both the 1st edition and the premium limited edition.
280

+ <numplays>11</numplays> <comment>I like this game, but I think it is a flawed design. The card rules make it very luck-dependent; if it&#039;s your turn and you take a card, you may have just given the next person what you wanted. I&#039;ve played with a forced-rotation rule, which I liked better, but it still doesn&#039;t quite satisfy my feeling that it should be a little cleaner.

308
+ The winner does seem to be the player who played the best, though again, the cards play a HUGE role in determining what you can do on any given turn.</comment> </item>

404
+ <numplays>71</numplays> <comment>Interesting and addictive game. I think one thing about it that I don&#039;t like is that all players don&#039;t get the same number of turns, giving players earlier in the round a significant advantage, esp near the end of the game when decks are more powerful.
405
+
406
+ This game is pretty good, but I&#039;m starting to get a little burned out on it. Then again, 23 plays in one week is still an impressive number of plays!
407
+
408
+ (Later)Yeah, I&#039;m not that interested in playing much more. The variability of the cards plus the fact that the game is so short means that there is very little meaningful long-term strategy planning in the game (beyond the randomness of the cards, of course). Maybe if we played with the same 10 cards repeatedly this wouldn&#039;t be an issue, but with switching cards out all of the time, I can&#039;t say that I&#039;m all that interested in playing much more.
409
+
410
+ (Even later) Played for the first time on BSW yesterday, and I have to say that that&#039;s the best way to play the game. The constant shuffling is avoided, and the game is just smoother that way. Like it much better on BSW than F2F, though I admit that it&#039;s making me interested in playing more F2F, too.</comment> </item>

+ <numplays>1</numplays> <comment>After one partial play, it seems like a game where you really need to play repeatedly to understand how the different animals play. When to play one type of animal is definitely not obvious the first time through. I&#039;d be willing to give this one another chance, though I don&#039;t know when I&#039;ll possibly have the opportunity, since my normal card group bailed part-way through the first game. :)</comment> </item>

I, in turn, introduced it to several of my co-workers at Tivoli/IBM in Austin. Somewhat different in gambling style than a lot of American-style gambling games, in that the person who is (currently) winning controls how much the loser pays him.</comment> </item>

601
+
602
+ The first Dorn game I owned, now I own several others.
603
+
604
+ The auction to enable you to do certain things during your actions is brilliant, somewhat reminiscent of Princes of Florence (though when choosing what to put up for auction, there are more choices on the board than in PoF).
605

606
+ My girlfriend doesn&#039;t like this game, it reminds her of Puerto Rico, and she just doesn&#039;t like the theme for PoF, PR, or Goa. I wish I could play this more.</comment> </item>

884
+ I have played a few other influence games (El Grande, Liberte, Bridges of Shangri-La among others), and I never feel like I have any clue who&#039;s going to win. Because the influence part of the game is separate from direct scoring, I think this game is accessible to more people.</comment> </item>

992
+ This is an interesting take on the area majority genre. Because the areas are not formed until the players form them, there are many interesting choices to make. At the same time, this feels lighter to me than Tikal, and definitely lighter than Java, so I think of the three mask games, it&#039;s the easiest one to get people to play.</comment> </item>

+ <numplays>16</numplays> <comment>I have been a euchre player for almost 10 years, and I recently came across Mu. This is a truly excellent trick-taking game, where there is more to do than just get your hand and play almost robotically (a la euchre). The only drawbacks to this game are that it is not short, and once you get addicted to it, there are no online versions of it (that I&#039;m aware). WIsh that this would be picked up by BSW.
1047
+
1048
+ Beyond Mu, I have also played Safaru a bunch of times, and Wimmuln a few times as well. Safaru is pretty good, Wimmuln is ok, but neither compares to Mu.
1049

1050

1216
+
1217
+ One of the most remarkable things about this game is that while it&#039;s more complex than anything non-gamers have played, they still take to it *really* well.
1218
+
1219
+ I&#039;ve picked it back up again thanks to BSW and the Alea Treasure Chest; I like it with the first expansion, but I haven&#039;t gotten a chance to play with the nobles yet. I think they may add an interesting twist to the game.</comment> </item>

I would like to see if that happens frequently.</comment> </item>

Change the art to (admittedly very nice) outer space drawings and add a bunch of barely decipherable symbols to the cards. Now you have Race for the Galaxy.

This game is an interesting one, and one where I haven&#039;t gotten a decent handle on the strategy yet. I&#039;ve won a couple times, but for the most part, I suck at this game. I still really like it, I just wish I had a decent idea how to counter certain strategies and develop my own.
1302

1303
+ Even after playing a number of games of this, I still don&#039;t understand the strategy of the game. I still like playing it though.</comment> </item>

1371
+ This is a great abstract strategy game. This game comes with 5 God powers, and between the different God powers, there are about 36 different variations that you can play (God powers + atheist), making the game different during each play.
1372
+
1373
+ Stephen Tavener has made a Santorini module for Zillions of Games, which has been the primary way in which I have played the game. Zillions is awful at some of the God powers, and very good at others. If interested in the module, check the forums, he posted a link (the final module will probably be uploaded to zillions or BGG, but there are some kinks to be worked out).
1374
+
1375
+ I&#039;ve only gotten a chance to play this a few times in person, but I think I like it best with 3. Just play with rules that if you can stop someone from winning, you must; if both opponents will win on their next turn, you win (if you could stop the person after you, and that person could stop the third person, then this victory condition is not fulfilled).</comment> </item>

That frothing desire is another reason that I&#039;ve downgraded my rating of the game; it&#039;s like religion, in that I don&#039;t like what it does to people.</comment> </item>

I think the routes should have been colored differently to make it harder to complete the longer tickets (ie, the same color multiple times on the direct paths across the country).</comment> </item>

1682
+ <numplays>11</numplays> <comment>My only real complaint about the game is that I feel like it should have more tiles included in the set...there have been quite a few games that I&#039;ve played where it has come down to getting the line from side to opposite side, which feels almost anticlimactic. I&#039;d rather play until one user can form a loop.
1683
+
1684
+ My desire to have more tiles took me to Ebay, where I got a second set for $9.22 with shipping...hopefully that will satisfy my desire for more tiles. The website doesn&#039;t sell the red tiles anymore, so if I buy more sets there, it would have to be the black tiles.</comment> </item>

+ <numplays>12</numplays> <comment>I really like this game, but I give the edge to TZAAR and DVONN because they&#039;re shorter. A game of YINSH always seems to take about an hour, and I can play the other ones in 15-20 minutes. It&#039;s a satisfying experience when I do sit down to play this one, it&#039;s just that that doesn&#039;t happen all that often.
1861
+
1862
+ I think this one is liked better than DVONN because it&#039;s a little more reminiscent of games people have heard of before. I think this game is a bit of a cross between Othello (which I don&#039;t like) and Go-Moku (which I do), and I have a great time thinking out my moves each time I play.</comment> </item>

1870
+ This game is frequently mischaracterized as a blind-bidding game; it&#039;s NOT a blind-bidding game!
1871
+
1872
+ Blind bidding implies that you have no knowledge of what others are going to do when you make your move; the key feature of blind-bidding games is that all players make their choices at the same time and reveal simultaneously. The vast majority of this game is done sequentially, not simultaneously. There are *four* blind bids the whole game, and those are the bids to see who goes first/last.
1873
+
1874
+ The game should actually be classified as a partially-hidden area majority game. You will see what others do and be able to strategically make your move based on what those others do, your goal being to have the most influence in as many areas as possible. This game is closer to El Grande than to a blind-bidding game.</comment> </item>
