Rialto

In the card-driven board game Rialto, the goal is to earn the most victory points (VPs), which are awarded for a variety of things. The game board displays the six districts of Venice, and players earn VPs for placing council members into these, for building bridges and placing gondolas to connect the districts with one another, and for building advantageous buildings.

After some plays I really don't understand why the rating of this game is so low. It is a good area control game. I don't like the point bar design but apart from that the game plays great.
