Books Of Time Review

Books of Time hit me right in the nostalgia. Not because I've played another game like it, because I'm not sure I have, but because of the sound.
Competitive games with low interaction

Books of Time hit me right in the nostalgia. Not because I've played another game like it, because I'm not sure I have, but because of the sound.

Barcelona is the latest Euro game from Board&Dice. It's a mixture of tile-placement and action-selection, and while that sounds like a relatively easy mixture to cope with, there are a lot of things going on

Other players will know where you're looking, and what you're looking for, but not the outcome. It's time to employ some logic.

Revive picks the things it wants to do - and there are a lot of them - and does each of them really well. Is it enough to revive the interests of those of you bored-to-death of Euros full of mechanisms?

The alternate drafting is really interesting and adds a nice little squeeze of tension, drizzled over the top of the game.

Ever fancied yourself as a bit of a Doctor Frankenstein? Did you spend your childhood drawing weird and wonderful creatures and monsters? If so, I think Hideous Abomination might be the game you're looking for.

Vaalbara shares some of Citadels' DNA but does it in a distinctly different way, resulting in a quick, lightweight game with a decent level of interaction

Over the course of a game, you're going to make seven railway lines with twelve cards. No more, no less.

Akropolis would be tricky enough if was just a case of planning your own city because there are a buttload of decisions to make with every single tile choice and every single tile placement.

Beyond The Sun is absolutely brilliant. I don't go around making claims like that without being able to back it up, so let's get into it.
