Played CoB three times now.. Very fun and my less intense gamer wife is really enjoying it (finally something) and even my 10 year old son enjoyed it a lot. While I enjoyed it, I'm already seeing an end game. It seems the strategies to victory are finite... Yes the game can be varied, but there are not that many varied paths to a win. Says the man who's played it 3 times...

So those of you who have played this 50, 100+ times.. what do you say?

Thanks!


I had the same experience you are in the midst of - three games with my wife (who isn't an avid gamer) - enjoyable, but it felt like the differences were all subtleties around the edges. I didn't find it interesting enough to continue. I've played twice since then and it felt the same.

That said, obviously a lot of other people stay interested and it's retained it's popularity for quite a while. I don't care for dismissing a game out-of-hand after just a few plays, but a few plays was enough for me to know I'd rather play something else.
