Summary
Sakura is a nice game, with solid components - outside the cards - which should appeal to family gamers. There just isn't really anything new coming to the table from Reiner Knizia but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. I do have to mention I really dislike the finish on the cards as they have sort of a "muddy" feel and constantly stick together. Sakura isn't a bad game but certainly not a must have as it's fairly average overall.
