Fun strategy game - don't be dismayed by the instruction manual

The first time you read through the instructions, you'll probably be confused. So read them through again, and then play a slow round. The first time we played, we showed each other all our cards and discussed the moves we were thinking about doing, so we could each start learning the strategy. Now it's one of our favorite games. It's fun, it's different each time because of the cards you draw, and it stays pretty even (with another game, Catan, sometimes it gets lopsided really quickly and one player just doesn't have a chance.) We've only played with two players, and I'd be interested to see how it is with three or four. Anyway, if you like strategy games, and someone you know has recommended this to you because they think you'll like it, give it a try. And don't be dismayed the first time you read the instruction manual.

Best game ever? It just might be that!

I waited a long time before buying Race for the Galaxy because I thought most of the positive feedback was just hype. I was wrong.
This game is fantastic. The "phase" selection at the beginning of each turn is great and the different strategies available to win are varied and useful.
There is a little bit of a learning curve because one must learn the symbols on the cards but a couple playthroughs should have everyone set and ready. Fast and quick I love that I can play this game a couple times in the same amount of time playing something like settlers.
My favorite game period.

This is a great game. I like that you are building your own tableau but still competing and racing against your competitors. Also plays well as a two player - a definite plus!
