All the ingredients are right for a good Euro-style game and this is certainly the best of the Euro-dice crowd. In addition to cunningly solving the manner in which random and strategy can pull in different directions by simply ensuring that your rolls always leave you in a position to do something useful, it also has a surprisingly and delightfully mean streak of player interaction. But I have a nasty suspicion that it engineers close finishes that are too close - detracting from the early parts of the game which feel kind of pointless, and resulting in far too many drawn games.
