Wreck Raiders review

Wreck Raiders is a delightful game that has quickly become a favorite in our family. We've played it with our kids (ages 10, 13, and 17) and it's been a hit with all of us. The game is easy to learn, but there's a surprising amount of depth and strategy involved. It's not just about rolling the dice and hoping for the best; you really have to think about what you're doing and how your actions will affect the other players.

The theme of treasure hunting and underwater exploration is appealing to all ages, and the components are beautiful and well-made. I particularly love the different treasure tokens and the aquariums you can build.

Some reviewers have mentioned that the shells can be confusing, and I agree that the skull token would have been a nice addition. However, this is a minor nitpick and doesn't detract from the overall enjoyment of the game.

If you're looking for a fun, family-friendly game with a good amount of strategy, I highly recommend Wreck Raiders. It's a great choice for families with kids of all ages, and it's also enjoyable for adults.
