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.

A big vision, and a really unusual setting and theme which feels exotic and fresh to me.
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.
The blind bidding clack-clack-clack of the worker disc placement adds a rich, bright counterpoint to the by-the-books Euro format of collecting resources to fulfil goals. A toccata to its fugue, if you like.
The luck elements in the game might lead you to house rule it or straight up not enjoy it, but if you don’t mind a bit of a gamble, Rats of Wistar is another great game from the Simone Luciani stable.
It’s here now, I have my hands on a copy, and I have to admit that for the most part – I was wrong.
Feed & Breed is a super cute push-your-luck game about rabbits trying to collect food and avoid foxes, and it’s a lot of fun.
When you’re constantly being namechecked in the same sentence as BGG’s number one game of all time, you’re doing something right.
If you’re looking for the short version of “Is it any good?”, then I can confirm that yes, it is. Stick around and let me explain why.
Wayfarers combines traditional worker-placement, dice-as-workers, and tableau-building and it does it brilliantly. Like, chef’s kiss good.
