Skyrise

I have the deluxe edition, and if I were rating it based on production alone, it'd be 11/10. The insert is a dream come true and the bits are unique and amazing. Easy enough for anyone.

This is like High Society by Reiner Knizia but with an area control element to it. A very simple game although it has a lot of components. An easy to play family-weight game.

This game had a really fun mix of strategy and trying to figure out what everyone else was going to do. There were definitely some "well, there goes my entire plan" moments throughout the night but adjusting plans is half the fun!! We seriously loved this one! The pieces are beautiful, the gameplay kept everyone engaged, and it had that perfect amount of strategy and friendly competition that makes you want to play again and try a completely different approach.

we loved this game out it was so much fun! Time consuming but fun! The graphics were colorful and beautiful! The concept is simple to understand! We found it more fun to work as teams instead of individually! Our players were as young as 9 that plays played.. but it definitely for older kids to play along with adults!

When you read the rules, the game seems pretty basic and straightforward but then you quickly realize you cannot do everything and have to make tough choices. Bought at Gencon 2024. Easy to teach and this is a game that you can hold conversation during even while playing. Really love that everyone gets to place all their buildings, as this adds to the strategy of when to go out yet is still friendly. The upgraded components are fun and do add to the game experience. I love the sound and feel of the buildings being placed on the board. I guess I am one of those people now.
