The player with the most points will be promoted to a supervisory position in the company. Each round begins with the placement of your worker. There are 4 sections of the factory to move to. Each turn you must move to a different section. The first section is assembly where bots are built. The second section is where parts are obtained. The third section is where projects are selected. The fourth section is a place to commit to contracts or to add to the value of various bots. Bots come in 4 colors. It is necessary to match the right project with the right parts, with the right contracts, etc. Game end is triggered when a player completes 5 Bots or when all of the Bots of one color are completed. Final scoring includes valuing each Bot by how high the value is on the valuation track. Each contract completed is scored. Kanban systems are all about efficiency.

Beer & Bread is a 2-player game about brewing and baking what the title says. It has an interesting game play with multi-use cards, alternating rounds with fruitful years and dry years, and swapping hands of cards. 2-player – – 30 to 45 minutes game play
Over a 6-year period, players will get to harvest resources: water, hops, barley, wheat and rye. With those resources they will brew some beer and bake some bread. They will need to do both because the score at the end of the game is the lower point total of either the beer or the bread.
In the first, third and fifth years there are bountiful resources to harvest – “the fruitful years”. In the second, fourth and sixth years there will be a lean harvest and much less resources to harvest – “the dry years”. Players will have 5 cards at the start of each year. They will choose one to play. Each card has 3 options. Use it to harvest resources, or as a recipe for a particular beer or bread, or a building that provides special abilities for the rest to the game. During the fruitful years, after both players have played a card, they swap hands. Play another card – swap hands. During the dry years, players will not swap hands. They will have the option to exchange a card from their hand with one of the three available cards in the central play area before playing a card. Each player will play 5 cards per year. Cards used to harvest go back into your hand to start the next year allowing a player to keep ability cards or recipe cards for use in the next year. These are going to be a highly thought provoking 6 years.

The Wolves is all about building and moving a pack of wolves to gain additional members of the pack and get them position when the time is right to hunt prey or to dominate a region. – – 2 to 5 players – – 75 minutes game play
Every pack starts with 2 regular wolves and 2 alpha wolves. On each turn players can move their wolves, build a den, howl, or dominate. The modular board will have symbols randomly placed on them to start the game. In each of the 3 scoring rounds the wolf pack with dominance in the areas selected will score points. The packs will know where they need to be and when they need to be there before the game starts. Along the way packs can be upgraded by howling to attract more wolves or by building dens to unlock abilities. Packs can score points by surrounding prey and by building dens. Points are also scored by dominating areas at the scoring rounds.
Your packs must howl, build and move, move, move. After all, Wolves don’t sit still. The actions are triggered by using a tile flipping system on each player’s board. In order to activate an action a player must flip over 2 matching tiles of the 6 available. The tiles have different terrain types on the other side. Players have to think ahead. They will need to flip the right tiles to do the action they want this turn and set them up to do the action they want on the next turn. This one looks like a howling good time.

Recently, we got a chance to get The Red Cathedral on the table for a first-time play. After playing it, we feel this is a seriously good strategy game put together in a fairly small package. – – 1 to 4 players – – 80 minutes game play
Players are going to work to build a cathedral. They will build different sections in different towers. The key is to build and decorate enough sections in a tower to max out your score for each tower. The player boards are double-sided (basic and advanced) that house their banners, doors, arches, and a cross ornamentations, and their gained workshop tiles. The cathedral construction site consists of a number of towers with a base, a number of midsections, and a dome. The layout is determined by a randomly selected Building Plan card. The cathedral cards are then populated with random workshop tiles.
The game revolves around a market board that utilizes a rondel mechanism where necessary resources can be acquired, and additional actions can be taken. Players select 1 of 5 dice to move around the roundel to a new market space. Market actions include gaining resources, moving their resources to cathedral sections, enhancing their ability to gather resources, or just scoring points. Once gathered, resources will need to get moved to the cathedral in order to complete sections a player has claimed. Adding ornamentation to a completed cathedral section increases a player’s strength in that tower which affects scoring. Ornamentation can be added to any completed section no matter whose claim banner is on it. Additionally, each space on the market board has room for three dice. The number of dice on a space will determine the number of resources a player may gain when landing on it. At the end of the player’s turn all the dice on that space will be rerolled making it a little challenging for the next player to play ahead.
The game ends when a player has completed their sixth section. Only completed sections of each tower are scored. Player with the most points wins. We really liked this game.
