Bruxelles 1893: Belle Époque review

Bruxelles 1893: Belle Époque - A Refined Classic

I've been a fan of Bruxelles 1893 since its original release, and this new edition with the Belle Époque expansion is a welcome upgrade. The game remains true to its core mechanics, but the additions bring a whole new layer of strategy and depth.

The Belle Époque expansion introduces some exciting new elements, such as Public Figures and White Works of Art. These add new ways to score points and interact with the board, making each game feel fresh and exciting. The Blocker Tiles and End Game Goals also add a strategic element to the game, forcing players to think ahead and plan their moves carefully.

The game's components have been redesigned for this edition, with a more ergonomic feel and beautiful graphics. The new materials are a joy to handle, and the updated board makes it easier than ever to keep track of your actions.

Overall, this new edition of Bruxelles 1893 is a must-have for fans of the original game. The Belle Époque expansion adds a significant amount of content and replayability, making it a truly engaging and satisfying experience. If you're looking for a worker placement game with strategic depth and a beautiful presentation, look no further than Bruxelles 1893: Belle Époque.
