It will only appear in retail if another publisher licences it from Spielworxx and does their own edition. It does mean they would be free to change the artwork etc.

Ahh you know me by now. I despise BYOS games, and I don't have one Uwe Rosenberg game in my collection because of that. Out of ALL of his games, you would think that he would at least branch out and get more diverse in his designs by creating a solo A.I. or automa, or even needing to complete 3 objectives or something each game. Oh well. And please correct me if I'm wrong about this, if I'm missing a game where he had those elements. I'm not going to hold my breath for him to do that anytime soon, but thanks for a great video as always!

This one does have a winning condition set of scores, but I still don’t think it would fit your bill.

I actually am unsure, too, though I did purchase The Guild of Merchant Explorers based on his recommendation, which is essentially beat your own score and I really enjoyed the puzzle/goals/efficiency of it, so I may bite.

I like that game a lot and still have it. Don’t plan to sell that one anytime soon. I just played another game of Oranienburger Kanal tonight with deck B and it had a much different feel from deck A. I scored a lot higher as well. I think the sheer number of cards will keep that game in the exploration mode for a long time.

If only I could finally receive the game. Still not sure if I'll have to pay customs since it seems to be shipping from the USA although the campaign was said to be "Canada friendly". It's my most anticipated game this year. You only make my wait more agonizing with all your praises for the game!

Yup I agree with all your comments including the awful color combinations. So far after about 15 plays of deck A my high score is 120. It's difficult to obtain the high score of 150 my opinion. Will definitely stay in my collection with Fields of Arle. Great playthrough. Until next time.

@@JohnLaRuffa If only I could find Oranienburger Kanal right now.. seems like it is the sweet, satisfying mind burner I am looking for. Instead, I am thinking of getting AFFO, as it is at the top of nearly every Uwe solo list. Do you think AFFO is worth it, especially if I don't find polyominos so exciting? Haven't tried many polyomino games yet, but I would.. (p.s. I love Uwe's harvest series, I love vikings and I already have Agricola and FoA)

@pist0448 I think it is totally worth it and AFFO is at the top of my Uwe list as his best game. It is even better once you add the expansion too! Don’t worry too much about the polyomino thing. It’s a consideration to storage more than a game mechanic so to speak.

I have played the cardboard off of Le Havre. It is a great game but it is much more solvable due to the way the buildings function from a solo standpoint. After a LOT of plays, it seemed like you just had to go down similar paths to get higher scores and that made things eventually less interesting for me. Still a great game to play once in a while. I think Oranienburger Kanal is a longer lasting puzzle to solve.

@@JohnLaRuffa wow John! That is such a super strong and detailed answer to my question with so much value! I do as well love Le Havre but after 6-8 plays or so I lost my interest. It felt samy as a solo game even with the expansion since the basics of the game are the same all the time. I was afraid it might be the same with oranienburger kanal. Btw. I already ordered it and it should arrive today! Looking forward to a new nice solo puzzle with lots of replay value. You are doing great man! Such an informativ content!

Great score! I had a 148 when I moved to deck B from the high 90’s of deck A. I am interested to see how each deck changes the way to score. Great game!
