Wormholes review

Wormholes is a game that's easy to learn but offers enough depth to keep you coming back for more. The premise is simple: you're a spaceship captain who needs to transport passengers between planets. To do this, you build wormholes, which allow you to quickly traverse the galaxy. However, the real fun lies in the strategic placement of these wormholes. You'll have to think ahead about which planets to connect and how to best use your resources.

I was immediately drawn to the theme of Wormholes, and I found myself enjoying the pick-up-and-deliver gameplay more than I expected. The game is a nice balance of competition and cooperation, as you're constantly trying to outsmart your opponents while also working together to build a network of wormholes. The modular board guarantees a different galactic layout for each game, which keeps things fresh.

One of the biggest strengths of Wormholes is its play time. A game can be completed in 30-45 minutes, making it perfect for a quick game night. The setup is also easy, and the rules are straightforward, even for new players. It's a great choice for families or for introducing new players to hobby games.

Overall, I'd highly recommend Wormholes to anyone looking for a fun, strategic game with a unique theme. It's a great choice for families or for a casual game night with friends.
