Kronologic: Paris 1920 Review

Inventions: Evolution of Ideas Review
Inventions is a great game. It’s a very expensive game, so make sure it’s one that will fit with your group, but if does, you’ll love it. It’s an ever-changing puzzle which your brain will simultaneously love and hate while you try to solve it.
