   the ‘modular’ board kinda just makes it look like its put together wrong. Also, annoying having them not connected I can imagine as they’ll not sit flush together nicely. The pieces are all very budget, too. These are only aesthetic complaints, but still.

   Gameplay-wise it doesn’t seem very thrilling either (and I love Civ); it feels like it would seem complicated rather than complex, and still be missing much complexity from the real thing. I mean, it’s understandable – all these ‘flaws’ are understandable, but I wonder whether that just makes it a misguided attempt in the first place

   Maybe I’d change my mind if I played it. I’m interested to see what people who have actually played it think of it

   I played it last night and its really fun to play, multiple pathqways to victory and it seems to rest on knife edge towards the ned so quite fun really
