My family plays Catan constantly and this game has begun to become more popular. There are no shady deals to be made and it relies more on your own strengths that anything else.

There is a family variant that allows our 6 year old to play and have fun. My husband and I really enjoy this one because it’s fun to play just the two of us or with 4 players.

We absolutely love this game. If you like strategy games and puzzles, then I highly recommend. We play it almost every night. You won’t regret buying this!

The game has one thing going for it, it’s way too easy, and hasn’t introduced any new ideas to the tile placement genre of board games. Major disappointment as a Kickstarter backer. If you enjoy minimal use of your brain cells, then this game is for you.

Some competitive board games can feel mean when youre actively playing against other people. This one is a more chill experience where youre mostly focused on your own turns and thinking about what youre going to do next, less about what the other players are doing. Very enjoyable for board game geeks and casual players alike.

I play solo 90% of the time and bring this game out often. Its been fun and is a quick game < 25ish minutes as well once you know what youre doing.

Excellent gameplay and replayable. Plays very well with 2 players. Becoming one of our favorite games. Its nice to score points on terrain and animals. Also helps to have 4 scoring conditions for each animal.

This game has the best of both worlds, it is easy to learn/teach. But is also good for gamers because it involves strategy.

While we are from the NW I think anyone could enjoy this game. It is both simple and allows for more complexity which allows adults to play with or without children 11 and up. I would highly recommend.

Casacdia is a fun and easy to learn game. It has a drafting element but generally keeps you away from hate drafting strategies that other tile drafting games have. There are a lot of different ways to win and strategize but none of them feel overly complicated and scoring is mostly simple.
