Splendor

You take on the role of merchants buying gem mines and transportation. On your turn, you either collect gem tokens or spend them to buy cards. The cards give you permanent gem discounts for future purchases. Eventually you attract nobles for bonus points. The rules fit on a single page. It is all about planning a few steps ahead and hoping nobody takes the card you need. The poker-style chips feel nice to handle. It is a quiet, thoughtful game that moves along at a fast pace.
