CMON Dragon Castle, Board Game

Pros: This game is just fun and very basic. Art design is really cute. Can have different starts both suggested or come with your own. Cons: A bit slow set up, albeit it can be fun. It is kinda too basic that three games in a row get stale.

Good quality pieces with variable game play and cool art. Only let down was the box itself not being robust enough for the weight of the thick tiles.

Es un muy buen juego de tipo abstracto, los materiales son de muy buena calidad, solamente los tableros de jugador son de un cartón delgado, pero fuera de eso de componentes excelentes. En cuanto al juego es de 2-4 jugadores con el estilo de Mahjong, es decir vas retirando fichas similares de la estructura central y los vas colocando en tu tablero. En cuanto a rejugabilidad es muy alta debido a las tarjeta de objetivos y de habilidades que mejoran la estrategia. Es un juego recomendable si te gustan los juegos abstractos.

The first time I played Dragon Castle I did not like it. I played with 4 people and tried to use the cards with extra scoring abilities during and after the game. It was too much and I did not know what I was doing. I really did not like this game. However, after watching a Watch it Played and then playing with 2 players and not using the cards at first, this game has morphed into my current favorite game and it has constantly hit the table. The pieces of Mah Jong pieces but the game is not really Mah Jong and maybe is slightly related to solo app Mah Jong, but not really. The pieces are high quality and the art is beautiful. The different combination of tiles, and set ups, and the power cards allow this game infinite replayability. It is just as much fun with 2 as it is 4. But again, I highly recommend watching a video first and playing without the power cards first. This game is challenging, relaxing, and frustrating all at the same time. High quality components, easy to follow instructions...what a game.

This game is fantastic! Easy rules but difficult to master. Only played 2 player but gonna play this one again very soon!
