What it is

The best Spiel des Jahres winner we've played in a while. You can teach it in two minutes and still fight for every tile. Perfect ending to a long game night, perfect opener for folks new to the hobby.

What we love

  • Rules in two minutes, decisions all game
  • Scoring cards vary — plays fresh for a long time
  • Weight-1 that respects your intelligence

Honest trade-offs

  • AP players will stall over the two-tile choice
