To Bordeaux or Not To Bordeaux - A BoardGame Insights 2-player review of Viticulture: Bordeaux | Viticulture: Bordeaux Expansion
It is difficult to broach a review of Bordeaux without mentioning en passant the previous expansions for Viticulture. And that is because, to a large extent, Bordeaux continues the tradition of new content for Viticulture mostly offering a new way of experiencing the game. While Tuscany added a variety of

Bees, beetles, BattleStar Galactica. Apiary review

Of Dragons and Birds. A BoardGame Insights review of Wyrmspan | Wyrmspan
I did not expect to write a full review for Wyrmspan. In fact, our entire experience with Wyrmspan can be summed by I did not expect that. We've never played Wingspan before, and, truth be told, we had almost no intention of trying it out. I'm still not

In 1951, just a couple of years after Churchill’s acknowledgment of the iron curtain that would effectively divide the European continent and symbolically the world, John Herz discussed about the “security dilemma”, under which “groups and individuals [living] alongside each other without being organized into a higher unity [will

Viticulture Around the World - A BoardGame Insights 2-player review of Viticulture World | Viticulture World: Cooperative Expansion
Viticulture World manages to accomplish the no easy feat of preserving the essence of Viticulture while turning the purpose of the game on its head. No longer are you individualistic viticulturists competing for success, but now you work together as representatives of the same wine-making industry in order to

One of the best games we have ever played | Ark Nova
Our latest play of Ark Nova reminded us how great this game is. It’s been probably our most balanced game so far, with lots of conservation projects endorsed by both players (and with a record number of donations as well). Unlike previous plays, appeal points have increased quite slowly

Big Decisions in a Tiny World - A BoardGame Insights 2-player review of Tiny Towns | Tiny Towns
Who would have thought that building Tiny Towns was that difficult? Certainly not us, prior to playing the eponymous game! All puns aside, here we have a city-building game extremely light on rules, but at the same time quite difficult to play well. Faulty planning could very easily lead

As far as I am concerned, one of the best uses of dice in modern board games it’s in worker placement with dice workers, where the actions that you can take, or their strength, depends on the value of the dice. It’s this mechanism that is at the

Welcome to San Francisco, or, more accurately, to Reiner Knizia’s vision of how to be the most efficient urban planner. At its heart, San Francisco is a drafting and card-laying game, in which players compete for points by constructing skyscrapers and trying to be the not only the

Reading through the reviews and ratings for Mille Fiori you can find 2 major focal points: that it is Knizia’s take on point salad games, and that you need a full complement of players in order to experience everything that the game has to offer. In this entry I

Personally, I have always found it a lot harder to review a well-known game than a newer or less popular title. For one, chances are that a high percentage of those who read such a review have already played the game. Secondly, there’s the lingering question of what
