Hickory Dickory review

Hickory Dickory is a delightful game that brings a whimsical charm to the table. The theme of mice racing around a cuckoo clock is adorable, and the game's mechanics are surprisingly engaging.

The core gameplay revolves around worker placement and turn order, as you strategize to collect items and complete your scavenger hunt card. It's a bit reminiscent of other games in this genre, but the clock mechanism adds a unique twist. The limited space on the clock hand and the threat of the cat paws create a sense of urgency and force you to think ahead.

I found Hickory Dickory easy to learn, but there's a surprising amount of depth to the strategy. It's fun to try and outmaneuver your opponents, and the game's variable setup ensures that each play feels fresh.

Overall, I'd recommend Hickory Dickory to anyone looking for a fun, light-to-medium weight game with a unique theme. It's a great choice for families or groups of friends who enjoy a bit of strategic thinking and a touch of cuteness.
