" ...  Enjoyed the game and the different tactics that can be employed so the game doesn't get old. ... It does take at least an hour in just a 2-player game to play and set-up, but the time flies while playing the game.  ...  "

" ...  We hesitated on buying this game due to the complex looking board and tutorials. ... It's highly rated though in board game websites, and at the time it was on sale for less than $20. ... After some discussion we pulled the trigger on it, not ever expecting to even play the game any time soon, let alone like it. ... If you enjoy Catan you will definitely like this game. ... There's a lot of planning ahead that can make or break a game for you. ... If you enjoy board games where you get multiple bonuses and actions from the moves you make then you'd like this game as well. ... Games last roughly about an hour to two, depending on how many people you're playing with.  ...  "

" ...  Finally, we started playing, and Castles of Burgundy has become one of our top games for two people.  ...  "

" ...  Lots of replay value with different numbers of players and game board variations.  ...  "

" ...  This game is complex. ... If you like games that are about growing a community (farming, trading, building etc. ... ), then this is the game for you. ... Overall we have had a lot of fun playing it.  ...  "

" ...  Wonderful artwork and great original game play  ...  "

" ...  The game is played in 5 phases of 5 rounds each and at the end, whoever has the most points wins. ... That said, CoB is a very fluid game when played decisively, and plays best with just 2 people (in fact, it is by far and away my favorite 2-player game). ... RE-PLAY VALUE: Pretty good. ... Even how far along in the game is obvious to see by looking at the board.  ...  "

" ...  Probably our favorite game of the year.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Younger (or less strategy-minded) gamers can enjoy it because there's enough randomness that they'll still have a chance to win (or at least feel like they do), even if they haven't mastered the strategy yet.  ...  "

" ...  Lots of fun played with my age 11 son my wife, and my in laws.  ...  "

" ...  The rule book is daunting, but once you blah your way through, or youtube it, this game is so much fun~!  ...  "
