So I've been playing the game for about a year, very regularly. I'm at Level 574, bought a lot of gems, and now completed every Themed, Record Breaker, Transport and Trains on Rails Achievement. I still have one developer achievement, five for resource spending, and I am on top of the latest seasonal contractors. I've even finished Ling up to Level 50, and Christopher, Ethan, and Cornelius were still fun challenges. But Giovanni? It's more of the same boredom and repetition as with Mizuki. Send the same set 45 times, or 85 times, or 30 times - but at least there were other tasks here and there. But Giovanni is just painfully boring, drawn-out, and unexciting. I have finished everything else and I am only on level 65!!!

I'm only in it for one reason - Giovanni's contract rewards 1,265 gems along the way - more than anyone else by far - I have 390 more to get before I am done, but the last gems are at level 89. After that, to get the 3 local train slots I have to send 500 of one car, 2000 of another, 65 of one train, 800 steam locomotives, 1000 diesel locomotives, then 80 of another train. And that's not counting the building tasks.

Hard doesn't begin to describe this - it's a marathon - and a boring one at that.
