Cinque Terre : Santiago de Light?

I think its way too light for me...
Recent release Cinque Terre is a light euro about playing cards to pick up goods and then transporting these goods to one of 5 cities to sell them either for points indicated on the dice (Randomly rolled at the start of the game and doesn't change for the rest of the game) or for 1 point if the die corresponding to the good does not appear. Players try to fulfill secret objective cards or the open objective cards to score extra points. Goods sold will be placed onto your player card and if you are the first to fill up one entire row you get extra points as the Most Valuable Merchant for that town. When game ends, player with the most points will win the game.

A Purchase Decision - Cinque Terre



The game in question for this week’s entry is…


Cinque Terre

Cinque Terre ( pronounced as chin-kweh-tar-air ) is designed by Chris Handy and has been described by some as the pick up & deliver version of Ticket to Ride. Or some have also said that it’s the slightly heavier / meatier version of Ticket to Ride.
Chris Handy’s other designs include Long Shot and Handy.
