Looot Review
Looot does a lot of things well. It combines two separate geometric puzzles – one shared, one personal – and asks you to figure out the best way to take advantage of the opportunities on each.
Game Type: Competitive - low interaction
River Of Gold Review
The mental gymnastics aren’t venturing into Lacerda or Splotter levels here, but there’s enough to keep your brain on its toes. Not that brains have toes, but you get the idea.
Cascadero Review
Cascadero is the sort of game which is an instant hit with me. Two to four players, a super slim box which fits in the gaps on any shelves, a couple of minutes to set up, and all done in under an hour. Ideal.
Spots Review
Spots has already become a favourite here at home. It’s quick to learn, packs in tons of variety, and it’s stupidly charming.
Cosmoctopus Review
Fans of lighter games, families dipping their toes in the waters of modern board games, and those of you who are part of a group that welcomes new members from time to time will take a lot from it
Windmill Valley Review
This is a great example of everything a modern Euro game should be. Clean design, clear rules, bright boards, and just the right amount of mental overhead.
Ultimate Voyage Preview
A big vision, and a really unusual setting and theme which feels exotic and fresh to me.
In The Footsteps Of Darwin Review
In the Footsteps of Darwin is a game which will have you cursing your fellow players. You’ll catch yourself muttering “I can’t believe you took my wombat!”, and no one will bat an eyelid.
Roll Player Review
A game about making a character for another game. Is that really a game? It turns out that yes, it most definitely is a game, and a fun game at that.
Deep Regrets Preview
It’s not just fish down there though, there are other things. Horrible things. Unspeakable things.
