Fit to Print review
Fit to Print is a delightful tile-laying game that feels like a breath of fresh air in the board game world! I was immediately drawn to the charming woodland theme and the cute animal illustrations, which give the game a unique and whimsical feel.
The core gameplay is simple: you collect newspaper tiles (articles, photos, and ads) and then arrange them on your "front page" to create a high-scoring layout. The real-time element, where players all race to gather tiles and arrange their pages, adds a fun sense of urgency and competition.
I found the game's mechanics to be engaging and strategic, but also easy to pick up for new players. The different tile types and placement rules create interesting puzzle-solving opportunities, and the game's "Breaking News" cards provide a level of variability that keeps things fresh.
While the game itself is a blast, I did experience a few minor frustrations. The desks, which are cardboard cutouts that players use to hold their tiles, can be a little bit flimsy and difficult to assemble. Additionally, the storage solution for all the tiles is not ideal, but it's a minor complaint considering how much fun I've had with this game.
Overall, I highly recommend Fit to Print to anyone who enjoys tile-laying games, real-time games, or just a fun, family-friendly experience. It's a great choice for casual game nights or for a more strategic experience with a group of experienced gamers. If you're looking for a unique and engaging game with a charming aesthetic, Fit to Print is definitely worth checking out.
