Very good quality materials and beautifully designed images. It also included additional plastic bags and boxes for storage, which I haven't seen in any of the (quite a few) board games I have purchased. It only takes 1-2 rounds to learn and has plenty of variety, so you won't get bored, especially if you also buy the expansion(s).

It is a very beautiful game with a high-quality rulebook, everything in English and understandable even if you have a lower level. It's not a game that will make you burst out laughing while playing it, but you will definitely enjoy it! You have to think about what you will do with each move! Here, luck doesn't play such a big role, nor do the opponents. In my opinion, the interaction between players is not enough to determine the winner! But you have to deal with the limited actions available to you! There are no victory conditions, nor does the game end when all the available moves/actions of the players are executed! You will always say, "If I had one more available action, I would win." So you have to calculate everything you do very carefully! The game is played in 4 rounds, each round having one less available action for each player: 8 actions in the 1st round, 7 in the 2nd, 6 in the 3rd, and 5 actions in the last round. Then, everyone counts the points they have collected, and the score and winner are determined. The game has an automation and can be played solo, which is great if you are interested in solo games. It is definitely friendly for both genders (wife-friendly). As I mentioned before, it doesn't have strong competitive elements (it doesn't destroy relationships), and luck plays a relatively small role. There is also an expansion, which I have as well! It doesn't change much in the rules, but I believe that if you play the base game and love it (like me), you will definitely not regret getting the expansion
