Da Vinci's Challenge

I played Da Vinci's Challenge with Johanna yesterday. She hated it, and I didn't like it much better. Basically it's a simple abstract game, where pieces are laid on a board with a Flower of Life pattern.

It's nice, except the game is somewhat boring, counting points is tedious as you must check carefully to notice all the patterns you made and the end game is very dull. The bits could look nice, except at least the copy we had was a bit smutty. The Da Vinci theme is nonexistential, of course, except some Da Vinci art on the board. Removing Vitruvian man's manhood is a disgrace, if you ask me...

Ugh. Review is coming up; I'm not going to play this stinker again.
