Message to the Czar
From the Publisher...
The governors have important messages that must reach the czar as quickly as possible. Because the governors live in provinces in the far reaches of his empire, a governor must be clever and a little lucky to be the first to get his message to the czar, winning the game and the favor of the czar.
The players each send several couriers on the long and convoluted trip to the czar’s palace. Along the way, the couriers travel from village to village through swamps, forests, and mountains. In each village, the couriers check in to one of the inns and spend the night. But only the early risers will be able to move on to the next village in the morning. Those who sleep late must remain in the village for another night, hoping the new day will provide better opportunities.

| This is a clever game that doesn't easily fit into a common category. It has some of the planning of an abstract, but maintains a solid theme of delivering messages with various kinds of couriers. I'de recommend it as a relatively fast but deep game for players who enjoy thinking about their moves. |
