Beautiful fun game with a good level of replayability
Beautifully presented game, lovely box and nice heavy duty card. This is a really nice game. The basics can be picked up in a few minutes. Watch a YouTube video to get the basics if your not sure.Lots of different strategy depending on the objective cards chosen and there is something really nice and tactile about this game.As its a game played strictly over 10 rounds it doesn't drag on too long and can be played in 20 mins or so.There is some level of puzzle and strategy to the game and it is a challenge to get all the dice slots filled. The addition of the favour cards helps to get you out of a blocked in situation.If you like this game I would also highly recommend Azul that's a very similar strategic pattern building game. Though Sagrada and Azul both work really well as two or more player games.

Sagrada, perhaps the most enjoyable game I've ever played.
I found this game to be very easy to learn. The rules are well explained and the game is easy to pick up and understand. My only difficulty in learning the game came in the first time playing it through where I hadn't read properly how turn order works, but it was my fault for missing it, it was indeed written there. The dice can be jostled quite easily and, as the game relies on which face of a die is facing upwards, this can become an issue if a sleeve catches one of the die or the table is moved suddenly, however I find that this isn't too much of an issue and doesn't detract from the overall enjoyment that I have had with this game.Sagrada is easily one of my top ten favourite board games. I might even dare to say that it is my most favourite were the dice to have a bit more weight to them. The components are very beautiful and well made. The 'window' boards are very sturdy and can stand up to a substantial amount of abuse, the dice are very colourful and the translucency does make them reminiscent of the stained glass windows they're emulating, and the cards (tool cards, objective cards, private objective cards, and window layout cards) are of a very nice quality.Overall, I have very little in the way of negative comments to make towards this game. It is a very simple concept that is easy to understand and easy to play. I feel that younger minds may be deterred by the difficulty that some of the game's objectives can present (such as making sure to have no repeating colours in a row or column), but I think that this game has a great deal to offer to those who like to engage their mind in a meaningful way with a game that doesn't over complicate or overwhelm.TLDR; Sagrada belongs in any board game enthusiast's collection. It's fun, it's easy to learn and play, and it'll afford you hours of fun.

Beautiful dice drafting
I bought this after it was recommended by my gaming group - we really like Azul (a similar abstract drafting game).It's easy to learn, perfect for families and surprisingly addictive. You draft coloured dice and place them inside stunning looking stained glass window boards in which you're looking to create the perfect window.It's random setup every game means you will have something new to try every time.Sets up in minutes, plays quickly, totally recommend it.

Love this!
Wow! Really nice game. We've already played it loads. It's fairly easy to learn and it's beautiful. It's a bit tricky to work the scores out but it's worth a bit of persistence. Really impressive!

Careful it’s in Italian!!!!
Misleading......... it’s In Italian (yes it says it in details)......... not obvious when ordering should say clearly in the description given that I’m ordering in Uk from Uk company........ I was rushing to order last minute Xmas present and didn’t look close enough ........ with lock down I’ve been up able to take to returns so not able to send back ........ frustrating returns cannot be collected

Really makes you think hard
This very beautiful looking board game really makes you think hard about each move. It's halfway between a competitive board game and a brain teaser. Simple rules make it a decent gateway game. It's possible to play without hyper-analyzing each move but if you want to win you must optimize hard.

Brilliant game
I'm not a strong fan of board games, but found this really enjoyable. Can be played with just 2, really easy to learn the rules and a round doesn't last too long. The connections with stained glass are rather nebulous, but it results in very attractive hardware!

Brilliant game
Bought this after seeing a review on TikTok, love it - such a fun simple game which can actually become quite complicated depending which rule sets and cards you use. Everyone in the family enjoys this one.
