Thanks!  I have this and enjoy it, thought mostly as a motivation to think about math and topology.  I got so obsessed with hexagonal colored connection tiles a year or so ago that I bought the game Kaliko.  I like that game as a mathy puzzle sort of thing, but have only played a couple of times.

I had heard of this and think it looks beautiful.  Some reviews on BGG make me a little hesitant to buy...

Oh, I had not heard of this and it looks like a great match for me!  Over the past 10 years or so, my dad and I tried to find all 2339 solutions of the 6x10 Pentomino Puzzle.  We got something like 1750 of them!  See photos here.  So, I think this game would be intrinsically appealing for me.  Also, my family loves cats.  Thanks!

Looks interesting.

--- Quote ---I also recommend Isle of Skye Chieftain to King.  There is a Big Box out now that excludes the worst expansion, but has all the good content.

Oh, I had heard of this one, but didn't know about the Big Box.  Adding this to the list!  Thanks!

Expansions are interesting too.

This looks very cool and highly rated.  Also out of print and surprisingly expensive on eBay.  Possible birthday present.  Thanks!

Oh perfect!  I ordered a copy of Sprawlopolis.  This sounds great.  I think solo games might be the right path for me...Thanks!

I couldn't find this / these -- area they expansions?

Has anyone played Between Two Cities?  Discovered this while browsing some of the other suggestions on BGG.

Oh, this looks great for me!  Not available?  Maybe I'll just make a version from blank tiles...  Thanks again.
