absolutely love this game! haven‘t played it much sadly though (but that‘s the case for most of my games).. wish I could play it again soon! 😁 great review! 👍🏼
As info the game is really good at 2p. It is much easier to advance on the book and diamond tracks as there is less competition. Board/map state and share prices are comparable to a 4p game at the end.
Got a lot out of this video, Paul. Thanks for such a detailed review and explanation of your thoughts. I’m 4 years late to the party, but I’ve scheduled to play Mombasa later this week for the first time. If the stars align favorably, let’s play this together sometime at a convention or something.
Had the same issue with the book track, played 10 times and never got beyond 15 points. Though I have seen ppl at the end of the diamond track. At 2 player each concentrate on their own companies asit odesnt make sense to invest in a new company. with 4 as all the players are expanding you have options to piggyback.
If you are placing a house on the Board Where already is a house from another Company Do you get the benefit shown on the Board or is it Just for the first house placing on that Spot. So can you get the benefit from one place multiple Times in the Game? Great Video as always!
@@GamingRulesVideos yes, yes, i found the paragraph in the rule book, you unlock the first one with the diamond track and the second one with the books
Only now heard about this game and it’s reimplementation. Thanks Paul. Great content as always.

My wife and I played it today and we love it. It is an awesome game. A lot of fun without any minis.
Thanks for this excellent video.
One of my favorite games.

hope it goes ok :)
Don't forget the house rule!
Great job, Paul.
A sensational review for a sensational game!
Great vid, enjoyed hearing your views on the game.
I think the larger sized 1 coins are used for the round timers. Or at least that's what I've always used then for
@@joybuzzer no kidding! Well, it works either way for me. It's a great game.
At least this is what I have heard...
@@joybuzzer Yes, it's a missprint.
Excelente reseña. Lo he jugado hasta el momento solo de a dos y ya me gustó
I like this game because there is a lot of interactions unlike many others euros games, as blackout Hong Kong which is solo play only game.
Yep
This is such a fantastic game

Excellent game. Same level as GWT.

Thanks. You always get the benefit of placing on the space, even if you kick someone else's house out first.
@@GamingRulesVideos Thanks a lot for the fast response. Excellent like no other reviewer 👍
Mombasa vs Gwt
Which one has got the edge?
GWT
why do you have 4 stacks? only 3 are allowed
you can have up to 5 if you have unlocked the relevant abilities.
@@GamingRulesVideos OMG!!! this will be a game changer :D
@@mkdFlaSh you gotta unlock them first though.
