Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)"Brass" is a definite brain-burner. By that, I mean that it takes a solid hour or two of good concentration and focus in order to play well. Moreover, it is a fairly unforgiving game, in that one or two fairly minor mistakes can make for a 20-point swing.
It is still my favourite board game by a decent margin. The variance in strategy, the synergy between mechanics, and even the quirky rules exceptions all endear themselves to me, as does the difficulty inherent in the game. It's extremely elegant, and progression through the game feels organic and natural.
This is not a game for those who have a hard time focusing, nor is it a game for those who do not like to think. It is, however, a substantial amount of fun for those willing to play it a few times. (Also: there are online implementations, and a robust selection of strategies at the boardgamegeek website). And it's nowhere near as complicated as people make it out to be... it just takes a bit of time.

Your goal in Brass is to build cotton mills, coal mines, iron works, canals, railways, ports, and shipyards, and to have them be USED so that they score points. Your choices will be limited by the cards you draw, but not as much as by the plans you make. Lots of interesting detail in the historical Lancashire setting.
