Great Plains

Great Plains BGG ↗

Your rating: 7.5

Description

Our ancient ancestors created images on the walls of caves to tell stories about the world around them and the animals they shared it with — and perhaps they, like you, played games to make those stories come to life... Great Plains is a mysterious game about a not-so-mysterious behavior of our kind: two players competing for the dominance over the Great Plains! With help from the spiritual animal world, they overcome hills, cross the lowlands, and invade each other's territory in order to become the tribe who will live on.

My BGG Comment

The fastest 2 player area majority game. Quick to set up, fast to play. The teach is just as quick and I think it is good for a few plays. No randomness in the game at all. Just place one of your meeples. The animal tokens make the game interesting. Especially the bears that allow you to actually push your opponent from a spot or even off the map.
