What is up with this box insert?
They tried to fit everything nicely, making space for the cards and everything perfectly, but the space for the remaining components is tiny.
I bagged all the bits and it just doesn't fit in the box at all!
Man this is annoying. Just got rid of the insert and it's all fine now.

I noticed this issue as well. Bizarre.

Good that it's not just me. I would understand it if it looks like no effort was made, but it genuinely looks like they have tried!

Works fine, if you're careful:

Good to know that it just fits.
Still think it's a bit easier to scrap the insert and just bag everything though.

Also, the box is like 1cm off 'standard' (i.e. ticket to ride box size) which also seems very odd.

I really like the game but the insert... Probably the worst I've ever seen. Even the flimsy paper inserts are more useful than this.

Notice how there's NO COUNTRY OF ORIGIN info anywhere on the box or instruction manual?

Maybe it's made in some out-of-the-way place where their measuring equipment is off by 1cm...
