Fantastic game, especially for £15.
This is a hidden gem, a fairly unknown and quite old euro boardgame, but it is perfect in what it does without unnecessary complication of modern euros, this is elegant and streamlined. Yeah you'll need to download a FAQ as the rulebook is just ok - but this is as good of a classic as Castles of Burgundy. Game that you can keep coming back to.

Surprisingly good game
Bought for a Ken Follet fan as a bit of fun, but was surprised by how good this worker placement style game actually is. Initial rules might seem overwhelming but you get the hang of them after the first play though. Could do with an expansion for more worker and event cards to keep it interesting, however.

Fun game for med+ level gamers
Way less complicated than it looks - I was wary of playing this but my (board gamer) SO managed to teach me to play in one session, and it's now one of my favourites.

Weak game trading on a brand /author
The components are really quite sub standard (large buildings that don't add any real substance), and the game play is rather weak, sadly unengaging and boring. For the price you may consider buying this, but we play a lot of varied games, and this one has got two outings with different audiences and will just gather dust from now on. No real challenge and not much fun. Shame.

Just incredible
I am a huge Ken Follett fan so I am quite biased, but I must say, this game is brilliant. For Follett fans it's incredible. If you don't know the book and / or the series, you can still enjoy it (at least my boyfriend liked it), but it's much better when you're familiar with it.

A great game by Ken
A great game that was out of print for ages. I like the quality of the kosmos version. Easy to teach and play with some excellent mechanics

The game itself is fantastic and I absolutely recommend it. However no packing materials were used just a plastic postage bag and as a result box is damaged, so much so, I had to replace the box.

This is one of the best worker placement games I have played. The mechanics are creative and fit the theme of the game and the board is beautiful. The rules suggest you start playing and read the rules as you go (once you've set up) and that is unique and worked well.

I bought this for my husband who is a board game aficionado and he absolutely loves this game. It’s not overly complicated to explain and leads to fun gameplay.
