their previous game. There are more ways to score points, more icons, and more objectives to analyze. Everything is obviously accessible, but it will take a little time to adapt to fully grasp its potential, unlike In\u00a0<\/span><em><span>the Footsteps of Darwin,<\/span><\/em><span>\u00a0which was much more immediate in its gameplay.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"9:1-9:291\"><span>The game relies on classic mechanics (card placement, collection) but adds a nice depth, notably with its mix of worker placement to choose cards on the main board, where the limited locations and the cost system force strategic choices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"11:1-11:304\"><span>This depth is reflected in the various ways to score points: the objective race, scoring characters, animals, trees, flowers, and not forgetting your personal irrigation card. The set collections are varied enough to offer good replayability.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"13:1-13:185\"><span>The games are fast-paced and without downtime, although analysis paralysis can be felt by some players, given the different ways to score points.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"15:1-15:377\"><span>The only criticism one could make is its lack of innovation. The game uses classic mechanics and doesn&#8217;t really add anything new. However, the overall effect works wonderfully.
