A perfect game to me. Delightful, happy, bright & pastel-colored SoCal beach-themed game; perfect for playing on vacation (or wishing you were!) A great game to end a night on, as the theme of building and helping people find their happy spots just sits right. It doesn't overstay its welcome, yet still allows you just enough room to make some impressive combos. A refreshing twist on classic tableau city builders; though the point-salad scoring may take a long as it takes to teach. Even when you don't win, you have still built a delightful little beach and boardwalk! House rule that you play to 16 cards in 2-player mode.

Not interactive at all, but still enjoyable to play for me. I like how moving people to their destinations produces points (makes more sense than a lot of alternatives), but also produces little stories that you want to tell the other players. I'll still remember that time someone gathered a dozen people in one parking lot, blasting out tunes, and that's more striking than most tableau building games where you combo buildings together.
This is my new cool game. The colors are soft. Its California groovy. Beach people will love it. As advertised, its chill. Can't wait to play it at a beach house on vacation. The cards are all different. They look like art work from Sponge Bob.
En este juego buscaremos construir nuestro propio paseo marítimo con las cartas que obtendremos de la zona central. Intentaremos atraer tanto a turistas como a residentes a los puntos de interés mientras construimos nuevas partes que combinaran o potenciaran las cartas adyacentes. Sencillo, rápido y da que pensar. 2 jug - 3 jug - 4 jug
One of my favorite games i’ve played and one of my favorites that I have. I love the art and color palette a lot. I always mention this one to my friends (who aren’t in the hobby) that are interested in playing games with me. They always enjoy it as it’s artsy, simple and not overwhelming.
