Iwari: Deluxe Edition · English edition · (2020)
Your rating:
An easy area majority game with an interesting area scoring mechanism. Firstly each area scores for whoever has the most tents in there. But hold it: more points the more tents so maybe do not put in the last tent to give someone else points. Then you get points for contiguous placements to form villages from your tents and lastly the totem stacks score across area borders. It plays quick and with the cards forcing your choices in certain directions. The CE has quite a few maps and there is are both good 2 player and 1 player modes to make this one a keeper. It also helps that the material in this iteration (it's a classic) is qquite beautiful.
