Family likes it a lot. It has a unique user placement mechanic. You don't get you workers back until the following turn so you can easily screw up and leave yourself low on workers.

Just traded our free duplicates and added:

Assyria
Silverton
Claustrophobia

Last 1/2 priced game from Mayfair - Atlantis

Teagan & Colleen quailfied for TTR finals (Colleen made it to the final table).
I made it to the final table for Dominion.
Zane & Quin made it to the final table for Power Grid.

Sadly, none of us came home for gold.

'kinda crazy' is being nice. Merchants of Amsterdam has yet to impress me at all. The wind up bidding dial is unique but it would be better handled by a reverse auction mechinism.
