Lanterns Dice: Lights in the Sky review

Lanterns Dice: Lights in the Sky is a fun, quick roll-and-write game that captures the essence of the original Lanterns board game. It's a clever, compact take on the theme, with plenty of meaningful decisions to make. The game is simple to learn but offers surprising depth of strategy as you try to score the most points by filling in colored lanterns and placing fireworks tiles.

I personally enjoyed the game quite a bit. I found myself engaged throughout each round, making choices about which colored lanterns to fill and how to strategically place my fireworks. The game has a great balance of luck and skill, and I found myself wanting to play again and again to try different strategies.

Some reviewers have mentioned that the game can be a bit short, and I can see how this might be a drawback for some players. It's a quick play that provides a satisfying puzzle-solving experience, but if you're looking for a longer, more complex game, this might not be the best choice for you.

Overall, I think Lanterns Dice: Lights in the Sky is a great addition to the roll-and-write genre. It's a fun, engaging, and affordable game that's perfect for a quick game with friends or family. I highly recommend it if you're a fan of the original Lanterns game or if you're looking for a solid roll-and-write experience.
