Z-Man GamesZM7240 Terra Mystica Board Game

This game is like the grown up version of settlers of Catan.We really enjoyed playing it, but its not for the faint of heart! It took us 4 hours to play our fist game as there are so many game elements to get your head around. If you're into complex board games with lots of different strategies and game elements to keep track of, this game is for you.

This game is great ! After opening it we played for 2 days straight and to me this game shines on almost all levels.One issue is that the races are slightly unbalanced. Some races are much better to play with when you are with 5 people and some races shine when you play with less.if the expansions were available i wouldn't have thought twice about buying them.PS: When the game arrived i had pieces missing from the box but amazon send replacement the day after.

Brilliant game! So many things going on and very little luck involved which is great. Each faction has it's own pro's and con's and we're still learning the best way to play with them all. Brilliant game. Took us a while to learn it and get our head around the rules, but we found a decent you tube video too to help. Works well as a 2 player, just much less of the screwing each other over tactics. Its epic as a 5 player.

An excellent game with plenty to think about and get engrossed in. Quality components. Competitive play but a bit indirect. Plenty of replayability which is expanded even more by the games expansions. Not a light game so if you're trying to get board game shy people to play this might not be a good first port of call.

Absolutely love this game!! It has so much depth for strategy and replayability. Each game is different thanks to the random set up, different player factions and the choosing of start positions. I cannot recommend it enough if you like strategy board games.It takes a resonable amount of time to get the hang of the rules so expect the first play through to take a while. Once done it will all start making sense!The game plays best wth four people. I have played it two player and it works ok but the end scoring needs some tweaks to make it more fun. Check out boardgamegeek for some options for the two player setup.

Beware - these are either second hand or faulty returns -box was not in cellophane - label stuck on box - pieces were put in a freezer bag - to make matters worse pieces were missing . However 5 stars to Amazon who authorised a return immediately

Great game, costs a lot but the pieces are all high quality and the game itself is a lot of fun! Delivery was longer than expected (8 days despite saying that it was available for prime!) However the game is so good it would be unfair to give 4 stars simply because i had to wait a week to get my hands on it!

There has to be a reason this is in top 3 of best BGG games. And the reason is...it is simply one of the best games ever. Deep, complex in thinking yet simply in rules. Re-playability is awesome as well. It is must to buy for all board game geeks.
