Control of the city
Even for people with no prior knowledge of Dungeons and Dragons, Lords of Waterdeep is absolutely playable and enjoyable with a great theme and good rules; quick to learn and intuitive, after a couple of games the rulebook is barely touched.

For people with knowledge of Dungeons and Dragons, being able to play as one of the hidden Lords of Waterdeep feels very special; for those who know the Forgotten Realms well, it adds an extra level of depth (outside of the books and pages) to the City, and gives some inspiration for the sort of tasks the Lords may ask players.

The game itself is a worker placement, resource/recruit gathering, with a strong player vs Player element.

The core game is absolutely playable multiple times, and the add on (probably reviewed separately!) adds new rules and characters, but crucially is not an absolute must to get the full experience.

A great begginer game
This worker replacement game is a very good games to start with for anyone who has never played tabletop games before. The strategy for this game is minimal, it is always good to have some kind of strategy, however other players moves may change your strategy for you in this game, but its effects are not very harsh. There is always another option in this game especially the further into the game you get as more placements will be available. However worker placement is the main mechanic in this game set collection is also a mechanic which is really important in this game. Collecting your pieces are almost just as important as placing your workers. Even though it is generally considered a beginner's introductory game I find this game to be a great go to for myself even though I am beyond beginner level. This is a great game for beginner intermediate to expert and family all different groups enjoy this game.
