Splendor: Marvel BGG ↗

Your rating: 8.0

My BGG Comment

The Avengers token changing hands depending on who has got the most avengers and the additional requirement of having a card in each color and at least one from the top row is an improvement. Also as thin as this theme is, it's more fun to recruit Scarlet Witch or Gamora than some unnamed jewel production. Definitely prefer this. Other than that: tried a ton of Splendor clones before finally deciding the original is best.

  • Games that play well at two
    This is a slightly improved version of Splendor that introduces an additional mechanism that you need to fulfill certain basic requirements to end the game. Splendor is a quick and barebones engine builder where the more cards you have played the fewer chips you need to draw to build more cards. A very satisfying game arc and it is set up in very little time and easy to learn. I have never played Splendor at any player count but two... it might as well be on my "other list".
