## Description

In the River, players struggle to create the best pioneer settlement out of a new, uninhabited world. In order to best your opponents, you must construct valuable buildings and cultivate your River banks into harmonious and productive settlements. Expand your territory, conserve resources, and block your competitors from victory along the way. Every decision counts in this fast, streamlined tile-and-worker and placement game. As an added challenge, as you progress in the game, Your workers will periodically settle down and stop working for you, so your pool will get smaller and the decisions tighter. Very accessible and uidly thematic, the River is an elegantly smooth game packing a strategic punch for the whole family. Fans of Days of Wonder and the worker placement genre alike are sure to love this brand-new title from the award-winning Studio.

Review: The game itself is pretty fun. You have to, manage the building, gathering resources, and collecting terrain tiles while trying to maximize your points and prevent other players from getting their points. There are different strategies to get the most out of your resources and tiles, so I think the game has pretty good replayability. The only issue is with the instruction manual. It's a bit vague at times so figuring out how to the play the game took a while. Also, there are specific scenarios where there don't seem to be any rules, so you have to agree on a rule as a group. It can take a good chunk of time to get through your first game but once you get going its pretty fun. Played with three and four players. Haven't had an opportunity to try the two player side of the board. I would recommend it to any fan of board games. If you liked "Splendor," then you 'll probably like The River.
Review: Tempi di consegna rispettati. Gioco top. Piace a tutto il mio gruppo di gioco.
