On the Underground: London / Berlin review

On the Underground: London/Berlin is a fascinating strategy game that puts you in the driver's seat of building one of the world's most complex transportation systems. As a huge fan of city-building and strategy games, I was immediately drawn to the concept.

The gameplay is engaging and intuitive. You strategically build your subway lines, connecting them to landmarks and optimizing passenger flow. It's a satisfying challenge to manage your resources, expand your network, and outmaneuver your opponents.

One of the standout features is the inclusion of both London and Berlin maps, offering two distinct playing experiences. While both maps share the core mechanics, each one presents a unique set of challenges and opportunities, keeping the game fresh and exciting.

The game's components are high quality and visually appealing, adding to the overall immersion. The board itself is detailed and well-organized, making it easy to navigate and plan your lines.

Overall, I'm impressed with On the Underground: London/Berlin. It's a clever and entertaining game that combines strategic thinking with a touch of historical charm. If you're a fan of city-building or strategy games, I highly recommend giving it a try.
