Lions of Lydia review

Lions of Lydia is a delightful game that has quickly become a favorite in our family game nights. The premise of the game – the dawn of currency – is fascinating, and it's well-represented in the gameplay. I really appreciate how the game combines engine-building and bag-building mechanics. It adds a layer of depth and strategy that keeps things interesting.

The game is surprisingly easy to learn, even with the unique bag-building element. The instructions are clear and straightforward, and it doesn't take long to get everyone up to speed. We found ourselves enjoying the game right away, and it's a great choice for a casual game night with friends or family.

I especially love the bag size! I've played other bag-building games where the bags felt too small, but that isn't the case with Lions of Lydia. This allows for more strategic planning and management of your resources.

The game is also very replayable. There are many different ways to approach the game, and you'll always be trying out new strategies to achieve victory. The theme and mechanics really do come together to create a fun, engaging experience. I highly recommend checking out Lions of Lydia!
