Mombasa - 4 October 2017

First play for the other new game from Colours.


A late start, learning new rules and a 2.5 hour game resulted in a late night.  And a sleepless one as our brains continued to fizz with all the thinking we'd done playing this game.  There's a lot going on -  not too much that all the fun and chatting disappears, but definitely one to play when we're all feeling alert.  Different strategies to collect points, a more flexible game than first appears - James despaired that he'd screwed his game by playing the wrong cards, but his resulting effort in exploration instead more than compensated.

Unusually, no rules for resolving a tie, so David and James were joint winners with 153 points, and Adrian with 121.
