About Terrasses de Kanoa, from BoardGameGeek:
Terraces of Kanoa is a tactical tile-laying game that delivers immediate, incredibly satisfying building, all within just 6 turns.
You must collect resources from the shared area, then strategically place your Landscape tiles to build your own territory. Create terraces and build trees, waterfalls, and houses, placing them harmoniously to maximize your points.
Players freely build and stack tiles, watching their territory quickly evolve in height and depth.
As soon as a terrace is created (when a hexagon on a tile becomes isolated by stacked tiles), trees, waterfalls, and houses can be built, depending on the type of landscape.
Every action has an immediate and visible impact, making the game intuitive and highly satisfying.
