This game is a lovely puzzle with a good amount of areas to try and slot into place at once. There's room for scouting other's tableaus to figure out the changing scarcities or regions up for grabs and be a decider in which piece to take or whether now would be the perfect pinecone. At the same time, there's usually enough there along with the pinecone to mean you rarely get scuppered into oblivion. It's greatest accomplishment, though, in my opionion, is the satisfying look, feel and vibe of the pieces. They're literally just coloured wooden pieces and hexagons but they're really good coloured pieces and hexagons. So chunky, so aesthetic, so colourful without needing to cartoonise the art.
