I REALLY DISLIKE how random the market is. It's a race to get the market items before your opponent does and 1st player has the real advantage.Some games have multiple ice cream stalls of the same colour and no +1 fruit baskets and other games have 3 +1 fruit baskets and only 1 ice cream stall. This results in giant swings in player abilities and makes turns feel either extremely gratifying (if you end up with a good market tile) or extremely useless, like you are constantly playing catch-up/scrambling to make up the difference (if you don't have a good market tile option).
I guess it may play better with more players (currently only played it with 2), but I rarely get the opportunity to play with anyone else besides my sister.
Single player is probably the better game, but I haven't played through an entire session yet (I really prefer to play with other people).
I probably just need to play it more to wrap my head around it, but my sister doesn't like it, so it rarely gets to the table :/
