Old West Empresario

Old West Empresario is a charming little game that I found surprisingly engaging. The premise is simple - you're an empresario trying to build a thriving town in the Wild West. You attract settlers by strategically placing tiles and drafting dice. The dice drafting is the real heart of the game, as you carefully choose dice to trigger actions that help you build buildings, attract settlers, and ultimately become the state capital.

While the game is relatively simple to learn, it offers a satisfying level of strategic depth. You have to weigh your options carefully, considering both immediate needs and long-term goals. The dice drafting system adds an element of luck, but it's balanced by the strategic decisions you make.

I particularly enjoyed the beautiful art and thematic elements. The game components are well-made and the artwork captures the spirit of the Wild West. The gameplay is quick and enjoyable, and the game is easy to learn for new players, making it a great choice for family game night.

Overall, I would definitely recommend Old West Empresario to anyone looking for a fun and engaging game with a dash of strategy. It's a great choice for players of all ages and experience levels.
