A long game that I'm willing to find the time to play!

If you have a group of die-hard gamers, I can think of few other games that have the depth, variety,and sheer fun of Caylus. It's a bit deep, but it's tremendously rewarding and has a satisfying feeling after a game - even a long one.
Casual gamers may not be as excited; and while I have taught the game
to a few newcomers to the hobby with success, it's obvious that Caylus won't be everybody's cup of tea. Caylus isn't in my top ten games, because the theme is a bit loose, and the game may take a little longer than I'd like (hard to fit in), but it is still one of the best games I've ever played. People on the internet like to wax eloquent about the evils of "hype" on new games. Well, Caylus is more than hype, folks - because the game is every bit as good as its fans declare.
