4.0 out of 5 stars
Highly Recommended
Niagara is a typical example of games that win the "spiele das jahres" title (2005). It is a relatively easy game with not too many rules and lots of room for strategy. Luck plays some role but anticipating your opponents moves helps remove the luck factor. It doesn't take too long to play, about 30-45 minutes and only takes a couple of plays to learn how to strategise...

Not my game
The game is engineered nicely, with wooden boats and plastic gems, using the box as board. However, I did not enjoy the game as much as I had expected. It was too predictable, even with the storm option. Further,a player who played it before has a huge advantage over first-timers.

The game is more difficult to win that it first seems when you read the instructions. Your goal is to collect various combinations of gems by moving your canoe up and down the river without going over the falls. However, the speed of the river can destroy your strategy of getting your gems safely to shore.
I enjoy this game. I don't think it's as "predictable" as the other reviewer says.
