It was just too slow of a game for the occasion. We’ve all had a couple of beers and explaining the game to one of the four, while reminding the other 3 how to play and also having played a very active/loud game before, was just a bit of a buzzkill. I realized that when the others had a hard time following what was happening and who’s turn it was and so on. Just a bad pick for the night I guess.
I need to stop reading this thread. Every week I want to buy a different game. Earth looks beautiful!
I’m still seriously in love with Cascadia. It has so much replayability due to the changing scoring mechanic.
