Where could you buy a game like Puerto Rico? Would Walmart/Target have it?

Rule of thumb - if you can buy the game at Walmart or Target, it's probably not

Target carries a much better selection of games than Walmart.

We've enjoyed Spot It and Trigger as two quick and fun games.

Yeah, we have one of the Spot It's and a Spot It Jr. That's a fun one.

Interesting bit of history on RftG - it is a card game version of Puerto Rico,

I'm not a big Eurogamer, but Terra Mystica is pretty good. I also recently

Terra Mystica is great, but long and complex enough that I would not recommend
