User Reviews:

Caylus rating: 5/5 stars Many Roads

The plays along a single road, but there are many roads to win. Build, Buy, Sell or simply make nice with the king. The unique aspect of this game is that you can achieve victory with any of a number of strategies. Even playing for the first time you will find the possibilities compelling.

Caylus rating: 5/5 stars Excellent

As usual, it takes a while to get into the rules, but once understood, it really is worth it !!! What I prefer is the different possibilities you have to win which allows you to try a different tactic every time you open the box :D Enjoy !!
