This game can be so unfun.

It is infuriating how unfun this game can be and I had SUCH HIGH HOPES for this simple but strategic game.
Every couple of games, I have someone that gets the token (4 points for categories with no permanent buildings) and they just continue to draw card from the pile from the remainder of the game. I'm trying really hard not to swear in this post but what a lame strategy....
This strategy can also be used with the token that gives you 1 point for every non-building card you have at the end of the game. SO lame.....
And I know some will come to defend it like, "well, that's part of the strategy!" But come on.... that's definitely a unsatisfying mechanic that players immediately jump on.
They do both of these strategies and just snatch up the big point buildings if they get an opportunity. Rant over.
