Feld is one of my favourite designer (I own Notre Dame, Trajan and Burgund). Luna intrigued me for the possibility to play solo so I'd like to hear your opinions. Is it good in solo mode? How does it compare with the other games? Worth to own? thanks...

Luna feels more like a puzzle than Burgundy or Trajan for example. There's no random element so it can lead to analysis paralysis with some players. It's a really good game nonetheless.

Given the puzzle-like feel of the game, the solo option is a very good way to improve your skills. Moreover, the variable setup for each game provides a new challenge each time. So I recommend it with no hesitation, if you can find it.

I haven't played the other titles, but I've played Luna a fair amount and agree with all of this. The solo mode has a few different difficulty levels, and provides a real challenge.

IF you can find it for a reasonable price, I'd definitely recommend it. If you're looking at an expensive second-hand copy due to it's OOP status, I'd wait for a reasonbly-priced copy to come long. It isn't a game you NEED to have without regard for price.

Luna is quite different from Feld's other games, yet if you tend to like all Feld's games, you'll find that you like Luna! Also check out Macao (it's my 2nd favorite Feld's game after Burgundy)

Yes, it´s a precious Stefan Feld game. All game-informations open for all players, so a newbie has no cards-knowledge disadvantge.

It's my first Feld game (and won't be my last!) and we LOVE it. Most I've enjoyed a game in a while.
