Plenty o Brass
This is a very deep game, on the surface it seems simple, build a few coal mines, some foundrys, a port or two and a cotton mill. And then link your towns to make a network.
In reality it will stretch you to the limits of strategising, you will always be trying to think 2 to 3 moves ahead while also watching what your opponents are doing and trying to guess what direction they're heading with their network, as anyone who has played knows that the ship is often key to winning.
I would reccomend to anyone who likes tabletop strategy games.

Betrayal at House on the Hill
Betrayal at House on the Hill
2004 | Adventure, Exploration, Horror, Miniatures
Modular board and 50+ scenarios creates near infinite replayability (2 more)
Super thematic
Semi-cooperative leaves room for fun incidents
Lots of pieces, need quite a bit of tablespace (2 more)
rules and mechanics can be confusing at times
Not always balanced
Great game for horror fans
Betrayal is a must-have for any tabletop enthusiast, especially horror fans. With 50+ haunts, it'll be quite a while before you're bored. Spend the first half of the game on the same side, exploring a creepy mansion. But beware, once the haunt starts, the dynamic dramatically shifts, often putting 3 against 1. It'll feel just like you're in a horror movie!

Great family friendly introductory game!
I really enjoy this game. This is a great game to introduce to people new to the tabletop gaming industry. Century golem edition is a rethemed version of Century Spice Road. Both games are played the exact same way. I prefer Century Golem Edition over Century Spice Road, for no other reason but looks. Century is a great set collection game with minimal "take that" mechanics that can turn people away from other that collecting games. Easy game to play, an easy game to learn, challenging enough for beginners, not so easy for heavier gamers to avoid playing with new gamers.
