Blog Article

The last issue introduced some of the most popular board game, and this issue continues.

1. Farmer

In Farmer, players take the role of a 17th-century Central European peasant family. Each round, players use their husbands and wives to take actions. As the game progresses, you can plow and sow, grow food and vegetables. Fence it, raise animals, upgrade your home, and more. You want to do so much, but time is against you. If you don’t feed your family, there is also the threat of starvation.

2. Birmingham

Martin Wallace’s Birmingham is the most popular board game involving economics and route building. The background is set in the early days of the British Industrial Revolution. You are an entrepreneur who wants to make money with technology. In the game, players will build cotton mills, ports, coal mines, steel mills, and shipyards. But construction is only the first step, you also need canals and railways to connect energy and industry, as well as sales locations.
Birmingham inspired other similar game designs and became the number one game on BGG in 2023.

3. Carcassonne

In Carcassonne, you draw and place a piece of the board each turn. Cities must connect to cities, roads must connect to roads. On one of these pieces you can place a meeples, a fan term that is ubiquitous throughout the industry. The meeples become knights in the city or bandits on the road, and so on.
