10.0/10
Just a thoroughly enjoyable game. very tense at just the right moments, enough slack at the start for new players to learn the rules. Excellent with any number of players.

Description
In ancient Greece — the cradle of European culture — Athens, Sparta, Corinth, and Thebes compete for dominance of the Greek peninsula and influence over the shrines. Each player oversees the building of their own city-state. Temple, theater and oracle, a harbor with ships, vineyard with vintner, and many more must find space on the Greek peninsula.
Players must move fast to get the best land for themselves while blocking their opponents from good building spots. As building is expensive, players seek to save money by using the natural resources of the peninsula. Players also seek to organize their building in an order that allows building for free. The game is won by the first player to connect two shrines or to construct all 30 of their buildings.

Highly underrated, now out of print (I won't sell you my copy). This game is a great combination of a little bit of luck and a lot of skill. Eurogames with a shared space aspect are not as common as they should be. Years Later Update: This game scratches an itch that few others do.

(in canada) very, very cutthroat - at least if you play it right. there is an aspect of draw luck, but it can sometimes be mitigated. Definitely best with 4.

I will admit that I wasn't impressed at first, but now it's one of my favourite games. I strongly urge anyone who has put it to the curb after only a play or two to dust off the amphoras and give it another chance. It's one of those rare games where the luck of the draw is a welcome part of the strategy. I can't say enough good things about this game. I know that I'll be playing it for a long time to come.

Awesome in 2 player mode vs skilled players, nearly a mix between euro game and an abstract game like go with a bit luck. With 3+ players the game is just bad.
