Great polyomino game. This 7 is based on the default boards. I think it could go up with the other ones. Events seem like they are punishing. The ability to focus on different tracks is very pleasing as you can choose different approaches to play. I think the tech cards are one of the most interesting aspects. Having a race to get to them is fun. Great KS buy.

KS - Nice easy going game. Just about had it with polyomino, but this one extends the life of the genre for me, especially when we're looking for something easy to get to the table. Playing with the asymmetrical planets and corps is a must, quite boring without them except for teaching.

Very light and quick polyomino game with a neat new gimmick (central lazy susan) and seems to appeal to a broad audience.

The goal of the game is score the most points and this is accomplished in a few ways, but primarily by filling up your planet with tiles (rows and columns) and moving up your tech track. Each turn you turn the lazy susan, select one of the 2 tiles on offer, and then need to fit this tile on your board (there are some limitations and obstacles to think about as well as which tile goes well with your tech track strategy and the goal cards which are in each game). Once a player cannot place a tile or a stack runs out the game ends. The game plays very quick and there is some nice variety with the player tech tracks. A mix of good and somewhat flimsy components, seems to scale very well and should be able to be quite expandable. Decent for what it is.

Fun tile placement game. Good for all player counts but especially nice with a bigger count of 5-6 players with the simultaneous play each turn.
