Game of the Month
January 2006
The lightly handled theme creates a fun atmosphere – the island setting is artificial but somehow fresh, and the humoristic drawings are actually quite cute and funny. We like this game – it plays fast, and can be taught quickly as well. It is certainly not above Settlers in its level of complexity, and so could be a good game to introduce new gamers to the finer arts of boardgaming while giving seasoned players a lot of food for thought without them feeling undernourished… PlayMe - originally a mail-order store for games - can be congratulated on giving Guido Eckhof a chance to develop this great new game and risking to publish it in an already crowded market. It certainly has made a good splash at Essen, and we are sure it will continue so in the future.
