Agropolis: Seasons

Basically Sprawlopolis Beaches with all the annoyances of that game, possible random bricks of your layout, and lack of any compensating bonus points. In fact, some of these even have penalties. Very obnoxious. While not providing a hard "wall" like beaches, it does force you to have a ridiculous table. Since the scoring card you add to the game now forces a directional push for each season card, your table now has to be either super long or super tall. This entirely kills portability. To not utterly lose the entire layout, I often had to play this on my big gaming table. Absolutely insane. I cannot even understand why this was created and not double-checked. In theory, I should hate this less than beaches due to the soft-block (instead of potential hard) it causes and the fact that each seasons tile provided is itself quite powerful. However, due to inverse portability and still being unable to overlay the tile to remove point-penalties on the card (including roads or your other score cards), I would say I hate it more. Hard pass.

Not my favorite addition. It adds more difficulty, but subtracts from the scenery. It does add more challenge than invasion card does

Easy to learn: Yes Time to play: 15-20 Re-playable: Yes Recommend: If you would like additional difficulty

A nice addition. Kind of like a reverse Beaches.
