Renature

Renature is a game that surprised me. It's a domino-laying game with a unique twist. The goal is to score points by placing dominoes and strategically placing plants on the board. While the rules are fairly simple to pick up, the strategic depth of the game kept us coming back for more.

What I really enjoyed was the use of the neutral pieces. It adds another layer of strategy to the game and forces you to think about how your opponents will use them. You have to be careful about placing your own pieces and consider how they might benefit another player. The cloud tokens add a fun dynamic to the game as well, giving you the ability to purchase plants or even another turn.

I've played this with my family and with a group of friends and it's a hit with both. Even my teenager was willing to play a few rounds, which is always a plus! It's definitely a game that's enjoyable for all ages. I'm impressed by the variety of play styles it supports. It can be relaxing and lighthearted, but it can also become quite competitive. Overall, I would highly recommend Renature to anyone looking for a fun and strategic game to play with their friends and family.
