PROMO TILES: Suburbia: Con Tiles (2015)

Suburbia falls into a series of categories that all reinforce each other and that Castles of Mad King Ludwig largely resolves (for me personally); I don't get a particularly strong theme from it because all of the tiles are sort of generic. It's an engine management game, and isn't particularly interactive. I was willing to play until the tablet edition came out, and now that I can bang out a game in 15 minutes or less against the AI (or in 30min with a pass and play against the spouse), I don't have any interest in the cardboard game. To compound matters, I'm not particularly interested in the app all that much anymore. I get the appeal, it's just not a game for me.

1-2-15: I download the iOS app and played it a few times. The scoring mechanic was a complete mystery to me until we actually sat down and played through the cardboard version, which we obtained at a math trade swap last year. HUGE difference!

Update 10-12-15: This is one of our 10x10 games this year, so I've had a chance to play it a lot. Sadly, this is one of the few games I can remember where the more I played it, the less I liked it. This game is too fiddly, the theme feels pasted on, and worst of all, it's very, very boring for me to play it. Buy a tile and place it here to go up on this track, but I go down on this track. Yawnnnn... I find myself preferring Castles of Mad King Ludwig over this game more and more.

reading comments and watching video made me falling in love with this title but after a couple of plays you already know what to buy and when. Low replayability

Good puzzly game that doesn't feel too solitaire. Rather dry though and setup to playtime ratio is poor.
