Coldwater Crown review

Coldwater Crown is a unique and engaging board game that takes a fresh approach to the traditional worker placement genre. While the fishing tournament theme might not appeal to everyone, it's actually what makes this game so captivating.

The game is surprisingly easy to learn, with straightforward rules that are easily grasped even by newcomers to the genre. But don't let the simple rules fool you - Coldwater Crown is a surprisingly strategic game. There's a lot of planning involved, and a little bit of luck, as you maneuver your Angler Tokens across the board, trying to catch the biggest and most valuable fish.

The game's components are high quality and visually appealing, with beautiful artwork and sturdy pieces. I found the gameplay to be quite enjoyable, with quick turns and minimal downtime between players. The randomness of the fish cards adds an element of excitement and keeps each game feeling fresh and different.

If you're looking for a light-to-medium weight Euro game with a unique theme and a good dose of strategy, Coldwater Crown is a great choice. It's perfect for a casual game night with friends or family, and it's even fun to play solo. I would recommend this game to anyone looking for a fun and engaging game experience.
