We tried out a new game last night - New England. It's a four player, territory/resource management game. The idea is that you are one of the settling families at Plymouth, and you have to set up the most productive land holdings. You do that by playing land tiles, and you play the land tiles according to a system determined by cards you buy. The game is ery easy to learn, and once you get it down, you never really have to check the rules - it's much cleaner that way than a lot of board games I've played. I don't have a complete feel for the game yet - we played about half a game, but all of us were too tired to continue - the game convention took it out of 2 of us, and we had to just stop when we were too bleary eyed to see the board anymore :)
Even so, I'd have to recommend this game. It played well, was easy to learn, and took no time at all to setup. We'll give it another go next weekend, I'm sure - and I'll let you know what I think of it after a full play
