Power Grid is definitely in the top tier of "Euro-style" boardgames. The players assume the positions of authority at power companies who seek to outdo each other at powering urban centres in Europe and America. The game's mechanics are excellent. There are blocking movements on the board; there is an involved auction in each turn; and the phasing of player turns requires careful planning. If you buy this, look for the expansion boards which add some great replayability. The game is somewhat easy to learn but better for more experienced gamers overall.
