Oh I used to have that, it’s fun and beautiful too!

I used to have the same, about 25 years ago.

It was really fun. The mechanic is a tiny bit different, because you’re focussing on creating enclosed “village squares” or your color, in which only you can build.

I was introduced to this game by Arthur C. Clarke. Pentominoes are mentioned as a minor plot point in “Imperial Earth”.
