Anunnaki: L'Alba degli Dei

I have played Anunnaki for over 20 playtest games. The game works very well and the factions are balanced, but you have to master the game to understand how to play them best.

Anunnaki is an awesome area control game with a great action selection system + even greater Ancient Astronauts theme. The colorful planets and minis of the gods and warriors look simply delicious on the table.

Played several times at 4 players. The game is solid and very interesting. Tough choices; good interactions (for a euro game); good pace; clear rules. My group really enjoys this one (favorite games are TFM; Caverna; Darwin's Journey; Hyperborea; Dominant species, to name a few). Most of the criticism found here relate to the production quality. Well, it's perfectly fine by me. The minis are not meant to be anything but nicer pawns. The small troops are better than cubes for immersion. The cards are good quality with great artwork. The boards are indeed big but it makes the game readable, provided you have a big enough table.

I played it already three times on Table Top Simulator with 2 and 3 players. Since the first game I have appreciated it, and I am wondering to receive it to put my hands on. I like the action selection board, the resources management is very interesting and you actually don't need a lot of them in order to accomplish a successful strategy. The game is easy to explain and to play, but several games are necessary to master it. I felt in love with the game from the Kickstarter campaign beginning, but I had some doubts on it after that I read several comments. I am very happy that I followed my instinct, it is a great game.
