What I Played Today: March 11

Ora et Labora

I played a solo game of Ora et Labora, because I wanted to. I cannot tell you what I did wrong or right, all I know is I ended up 50 points below the target, and that's too bad. I ran out of space to build things really quickly, and the problem with the mountain space is that there are literally only two things you can build there, and for one, you kinda have to buy the other. I also don't get why they make it exceptionally difficult to get the goods to make the high quality goods in this game. For the French board, which I was playing, the rules tell me to throw out both grapevines. So...I guess they don't want me to make wine. Because there are maybe four other buildings that will give me grapes. I still managed to make quite a bit, but I concentrated mainly on bread because all the other options were pretty closed off by the game's rules. A weird puzzle where they don't let you use the most obvious pieces.
