    its staggering to me that this new anniversary edition is even uglier than the original, but the game itself is fantastic.

    superb at two players for those looking for a couples game, great at three, but maybe outstays its welcome a bit at four unless you're really going quick.

  • docians on 12/12/2021 - 20:05

    would anyone happen to know, despite the description, if there would be an English instruction manual?
    seems a bit far fetched that they would go through the effort of making an edition with a few languages but not english
    unfortunately cannot see the back of the box

    the description on the Amazon US website also says Spanish

    I'm a bit old school and prefer a printed manual (and too miserly to buy a colour printer)

      I think there are likely to be English instructions. People who bought the game from Amazon answered questions for the listing about this said they received English instructions.

    I suspect that there will be English instructions with the game as multiple people have commented in the listing that the one they received was in English.

    • docians on 13/12/2021 - 20:39

      hope so too!

    Anyone else have a missing board in their copy, specifically 2/11f? Apparently, this isn't the first time this has happened. I contacted Amazon and got a full refund; kept the game. I don't think Ravensburger Australia are gonna help beyond advising me to just buy another copy, and I'm not sure the UK lot would be willing to help, either.

    • docians on 22/01/2022 - 19:22

      Hey Jeffie
      Just checking is the game playable with the missing board?
      Did you order from Amazon UK?

      • Jeffie on 22/01/2022 - 19:32

        It's playable until I want to play with board 11f, or when I want to play on board 2 with 4 players (- I have the other 3 copies of board 2).

        I did order from Amazon UK but I imagine getting on to them would be more difficult; will try if necessary. Ravensburger Australia did get back to me on Friday to confirm the product in question; hopefully that means something can be done by them. Will have to wait and see.

  • docians on 22/01/2022 - 20:02

    Oh so to clarify board 2 and boards 11f are missing?
    I'll have to check my box

    • Jeffie on 22/01/2022 - 20:56

      It's one double-sided board: 2 on one side, 11f on the other. I didn't notice until I did a thorough check, as the double sidings can get confusing.

      • docians on 22/01/2022 - 22:29

        I've opened my box, apart from the main board and th dice I'm having trouble identifying what is what- wish the instruction manual was more helpful in that manner. I shall specifically try and look for board 2/ 11f

        • docians on 23/01/2022 - 16:18

          Managed to check my boards contents- everything intact

          • Jeffie on 23/01/2022 - 23:38

            @docians: Nice.

            • docians on 24/01/2022 - 23:18

              @Jeffie: Honestly would have preferred one missing board and get a full refund like you did :)

              • Jeffie on 24/01/2022 - 23:42

                @docians: Haha. Literally just got a response from Ravensburger UK; looks like no one can help me. Gonna have to see if I can make a custom board, but need to find the relevant images online. Sadly, BGG doesn't have them.

                • Jeffie on 24/01/2022 - 23:46

                  @Jeffie: Actually, found in the images section. Was looking in the files section before.

              • Jeffie on 26/01/2022 - 17:25

                @docians: Fixed, thanks to Officeworks. The replacement board (top) is slightly smaller and thinner but the tiles fit perfectly; just need to trim down the white border. Will be amusing telling people that I got the game for $1.78.

                • docians on 26/01/2022 - 21:00

                  @Jeffie: As per comments on BGG Ravensburger is usually good with replacing missing pieces

                  A bit disappointed that they didn't help you out
