My favorite game due to its many ways to win. Very re-playable with different order of buildings and resource tiles every game. Time flies due to quick action times and planing your next action as soon as you place a worker. Different strength of discoveries allows you to take risk to catch up or play safe and avoid any risk. tension of what action to take now that might not be available latter in the round. Can reward long term planning vs the best immediate reward. Conflict often hurts both parties so don't fight unless you are sure you can win!
