Spelndor is a brilliant game, tactical, logical, 15 points to win. Simple. The prices feel like heavy poker chips and it’s super satisfying to play with them, it’s an easy game to teach making it very family friendly.

Essentially the gameplay goes as so;
You can take one of three actions on your turn.

Collect resources, either two of the same colour gem if there are 5 or more on the stack, or three of different coloured gems.

Buy cards which give you points, a permanent recourse or even BOTH!

Or reserve a card for later, this can be a face up card or one random from a deck. This can be purchased by you later for it’s usual cost, AND for reserving a card you get a gold chip, which can be spent as if it’s any colour gem.

Lastly- there are some nobles at the top of the play area, if you have the gems on cards they would like, they come to “see” your collection and you gain 3 extra points at the end of your turn.

First to 15 points wins 😊

Great simple fun, I’d reccomend playing with people of a similar ability to begin with, and all of the components can easily fit in a small deck box which can make it a great travel game.

The short stories in this are brilliant. There were a few that I ended up skipping (mainly just because I didn’t get along with the style of them) but I did read the majority of the short stories.

My favourites were by Jenny Han, Rainbow Rowell and David Levithan. They were all so festive and really got me in the festive spirit.

I also love the binding of this book! The page edges are a bright pink which is completely my colour! I also love hardbacks that have a bookmark in them – they are lifesavers!

I can’t believe that a collection with as many big names as this actually exists! I was in heaven while reading it!
