I really enjoy Agricola[0], because there are no elements of chance in the game, only strategy. It's also a little more approachable to people averse to conflict-focused games, because the only victory condition is "everybody has taken all their turns"

- Pelerin 10y agoIf you like Agricola, I recommend Caverna. Sort of a spiritual sequel to the game, and done better in my opinion, which is saying a lot because Agricola was one of my favorites.
- egru 10y agoI find Caverna lacks in replayability. My group played it a couple times and everyone started doing the same thing. Eventually we just migrated back to Agricola. Haven't touched Caverna in over a year.
- germanier 10y agoThere is quite a bit of chance in the game: The occupations and improvements you and the other players end up with changes the strategy you need to play successfully quite a bit. At least your cards are known to you at the beginning. The order the round cards appear are also somewhat randomized which can sometimes break your neck if you haven't planned sufficiently for the 2 or 3 possibilities.
