Jewels of Puerto Primo

FIRST IMPRESSION:

Can be a bit confusing at first to understand the scoring system and when certain things score, etc but at its heart, this is a set collection game where you try to time certain sets to score at the best possible time. The coins in this one are quite nice as well.

(Jeremy, Alan and Scott) A fund drafting game with the designer Alan Ernstein. You can play cards in sets of equal number or follow the rainbow hue with any number or play a straight. The object to collect stuff and sell it at the right time to optimize your points as it has a pyramidal vp scalling maxing out at 6 (21vp) so it's better to try and save up till you get a run and play it but you have a play a card a turn. I enjoyed this and also won!

Gorgeous production of a fantastic twist on rummy-style games. Meld cards at advantageous times to score tactical points, all while keeping an eye on the end game tableau you are building.
