Puerto Rico

I decreased the rating as I now know much more interesting games and Puerto Rico is no longer so unique.

An excellent game! I fell in love with it on the first game.

It is attractive thematically and challenging. It offers different ways to win. Also different styles of play (more quick and fun or slower and more thoughtful).

The extra buildings let you choose a better combo of available buildings, allowing you to remove some of the weaker ones.

Hm this does look like Puerto Rico. Why is it a separate entry? Who cares, Puerto Rico is just an amazing game.

It's definitely one of the most confusing games I played. It requires a rested and clear mind to play. Definitely not easy family game. Setup takes quite a long time. Other than that I enjoy playing it, as it's kind of unique for me, as well as gives an opportunity to take different approaches to win the game.

Graded, but didn't play with additional buildings, yet.

It's ok if you can get past the problematic content
