Yukon Airways

Yukon Airways is a delightful surprise! It's a game that looks deceptively simple at first glance, but quickly reveals its depth and strategic layers. The core gameplay is straightforward: you're a seaplane pilot transporting passengers across the Yukon. You draft dice to represent your passengers and use ticket cards to determine your destinations.

The real meat of the game comes from the choices you make. Do you focus on maximizing your income from passengers? Or do you prioritize collecting points for visiting different locations? Do you upgrade your plane to increase your capacity, or save your money for later? The possibilities are endless, and the game encourages you to think carefully about your strategy.

I was particularly impressed by the game's solo mode. It's challenging and engaging, and provides a great opportunity to hone your skills before playing with others. The components are top-notch, with a beautiful map and unique player boards that add to the game's charm.

Overall, Yukon Airways is a fantastic game that is easy to learn but hard to master. It's a wonderful addition to any game collection, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, strategic game with beautiful components.
