My best game of 2008 Review by TR

Kingsburg is my personal favourite of 2008. While Agricola is a complex gamer geeks game, Kingsburg is the game that hits the table among my gaming group more because its light enough for their taste but still complex in its strategies for mine.

An interesting mixture of Amerithemed dice-rolling and Euro level rules and strategies, Kingsburg is also quite fast to set-up and takedown, another huge plus with my group. With the on-going complexity of balancing your growth against the approaching hordes at the end of each year, players are continually considering what the next best move is.

In addition, the ability to block specific councilors adds interaction, while the randomness of the dice guarantees a new game each time. Overall, Kingsburg is a huge hit and a great gateway game and happily, allows up to 5 players. (Posted on 3/25/09)
