My BGG Comment

Collect tiles and place them in a beautiful pattern. It sounds so easy. But then someone else takes the tiles you needed to fill that one row and you have to take more and break some and... It is a quick medium weight abstract strategy that you can play with just about anyone because it is so easy to teach. It is not trivial to win however. The two follow up games that twist the formula and complicate it are also quite good.
