It's good, just read through the rules and tutorials. It's worker placement, with some odd money management. It appears to be roughly like Caylus, theirs a favor track and you need to manage that as well as your own things.
Resource management tied to the game via placement of objects. Each player has a limited amount of Barrels that grant favors, earn points, redeem cash, and score multiplier points. The whole thing can feel quite overwhelming under first view. Broken down, all the pieces of an entertaining Euro are here. Stages, and rounds with lots of variety and options. I will say some pieces or actions feel really simplistic and straightforward. The low variation of the wine production pieces make that very doable, but all the choices tied into those things add complexity. Having not played it yet, I can't tell you what it feels like. I'm playing it tomorrow, and I'm very excited. -Chris On Mar 31, 2:02 pm, "Jake Waltier (Twentysides)" <[email protected]> wrote: > My FLGS has a deeply discounted copy of Vinhos (minor box damage).
