In addition, the bug dice is also very cute.

Note: The rules of this game are more complicated, it is better to have a leader. In addition to cards, preparing paper and pens or other small parts can help calculate the level.

This will make quick-win players feel a lot of pressure and it is very interesting.

This intriguing gameplay really brings the board game to its fullest.

At first, this game seems to be based on luck, but after you get started, you will find that it is also a game that combines luck and technology, and the balance is very good. Those who can play will compete fiercely in the end.
Note: This game has a certain degree of difficulty to get started, you may need to practice several times. When playing for lower grade children, you can cancel the "Lying Farmer" first. It will be easier to explain. In addition, I highly recommend the expansion pack of this game, which will make the original game more colorful.

Game method: hard-working players need to open up wasteland in Puerto Rico, build buildings, allocate manpower, and hoard goods back to the motherland. When the player builds a fixed number of buildings, the game ends. According to the rules of the game, victory points are calculated, and the victory points are scored based on the victory points.
Recommended reason: Puerto Rico is a "zero-luck" game. No game steps are determined by luck. Each step of the process is determined by the player's choice and interaction. This game focuses on skills and has multiple ways to obtain victory points. Players need to calculate each step accurately to stand out from the competition. It's a very brainy game.
Note: This game is also difficult to get started, you may need to practice several times. It is best to have a leader prompt at the beginning.
