Capital Lux

The shipping and item condition and whatnot gets 5/5 stars. I, however am basing my rating on the actual game. It's a fun game. There's a nice level of strategy for such a quick game. This is definitely a filler, as it only take about 30 minutes, but it keeps you thinking and making decisions. Everything from the drafting mechanic to the math, to figuring out where to play on your turn is well thought out. The art is beautiful, absolutely wonderful. It slightly bothers me that al of the characters face the same direction except one, but that doesn't affect game play. The reason I only gave it 4 stars is because it's a bit too abstract, leaving me wanting more. They use such specific terminology that I want there to be more story to it. You build a Homeworld, not just a tableau. You play in the Capital, not just the center of the table. Also, the "gold discs" were square. Again, it doesn't affect gameplay, but discs and bricks are not the same thing. A little more care could have been taken. Overall it's a fun game, it just needs something more thematically.

A fun and quick card game that offers more strategy then one would initially expect. Not the only game you play during a game night but a good filler.

This is a great quick little thinker game. Simple rules but still challenging. You're trying to lock in points in your hometown without going over the capitals limit, but at the same time you're trying to not help your opponents either. The modifier cards also add an additional layer of strategy to the game since you can use them to change the limits in the capital without your opponent knowing what changes you just made! A little take-that without being mean :)

One of those "simple but complex" games that had me agonizing over every decision. Clever game mechanic and a lot of fun!

This was a surprising, fun, fast game. I'm sure this one will be in my collection for a while and se the table often as a compelling filler game.

Great game. I bought it specifically for the art and was delighted to find that the game, itself, doesn't suck. Even with two players, it is pretty difficult to develop strategy.

Great little filler with amazing artwork. I wish it was longer though.

The game is boss. Lots of levels with this little game.

Really neat, innovative card game. Plays in 30 mins or so.

Capital Lux è un gioco di carte, ottimamente disegnato, che presenta un'originale mix di meccaniche di gioco semplici ma equilibrate e che garantiscono una discreta profondità strategica.Bisogna infatti trovare equilibrio tra il giocare carte nella propria città e nella capitale per realizzare il maggior profitto, in termini di punti, possibile.SI gioca in 3 round al termine dei quali vince il giocatore che ha fatto il maggior numero di punti.Difetti: di fatto il costo risulta piuttosto caro visto che si tratta di un mazzo di carte (ottime) e di 6 dischetti di legno. Manca il regolamento in Italiano (che per ora non è reperibile nemmeno in internet) ma il regolamento in inglese è abbastanza chiaro con un buon numero di esempi
