If you are thinking that 'Puerto Rico' is an unknown game that moves in the shadows, sit down: It is one of the top sellers in Europe and it is perhaps the most awarded game in the history of board games: Deutscher Spiele Preis 2002, Essen Feather 2002, Strategy game of the year in USA 2003, International Gamers award 2003, actually ranked number 1 in the Internet Top 100 list -everybody can vote- (GO is number 68 and Chess is number 242), and PR is ranked number 1 in the independent BoardGameGeek list, etc... The ideas behind some aspects of the game may be vomitive, but, being absolutely objective, considering its abstract value as game, I have to admit that it is really good.
