Are you comfortable with the art, theme, and characters? <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03737607182546277125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6829360209113689355.post-39876681121559317752013-05-15T06:00:52.968-07:002013-05-15T06:00:52.968-07:00Agree - Terra Mystica only has a fantasy theme/mul...Agree - Terra Mystica only has a fantasy theme/multiple race motif that is similiar to small world, but ultimately, it's a resource management game that is brilliantly designed, relatively short to play and intriguing throughout.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04563633203082588012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6829360209113689355.post-30411383007842044192013-05-15T05:53:24.358-07:002013-05-15T05:53:24.358-07:00If you accept the fact that there is no conflict, ...If you accept the fact that there is no conflict, you will appreciate the mechanics of the power flow as well as the intricacies in keeping close to your neighbours while benefitting from when they grow their settlements. TM has a rich (14) set of pretty balanced races to play with, so plenty more resons to try it again and again. Plays OK with 2, better the more people :-) Do not get intimidated by the rules, after the first half-game, it feels very intuitive and hides no more secrets. From there you can start building real strategies... :-)<br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09548545820938156931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6829360209113689355.post-7542215749597448192013-05-14T07:02:04.625-07:002013-05-14T07:02:04.625-07:00I'm pretty sure that I've compared Terra M...I'm pretty sure that I've compared Terra Mystica to Small World. It's basically a similarity of theme - fantasy races looking to expand. But, yeah - the play is vastly different.Joshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14011225292134198772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6829360209113689355.post-89650439431270429432013-05-14T06:12:35.905-07:002013-05-14T06:12:35.905-07:00I've heard Terra Mystica be compared to Small ...I've heard Terra Mystica be compared to Small World.... but after reading your review, I pretty much don't see a similarity other than the fact that it includes fantasy races.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16943069743769638883noreply@blogger.com
