My wife and I really enjoy playing this game. Having been fans of Uwe Rosenburg for a long time this is another great entry into his catalogue. The first turn of the first game is very overwhelming trying to figure out what to do. Eventually you just have to do something and see how it goes. After the first couple plays you get a better idea of the kind of moves to focus on. There is a bit of luck with some of the dice rolling mechanics however for me it feels thematic. And there are many ways to mitigate bad results and sometimes choosing to fail is a better action than any other available to you. Great game, played it 4 times this week and plan a couple more still. Read more

The game has been made to a high quality. Having played this online, the physical version seemed daunting, but the rule book is comprehensive and easy to understand, and the gameplay quickly becomes intuitive. We played this with someone who wouldn't normally interact with complicated games, but with a little guidance they enjoyed it and scored higher than people who were familiar with the game! I would highly recommend this game to anyone who already enjoys or is looking to get into more complex strategy games. Read more

Estaba dispuesto a aceptar que la marca fuera otra pero después de separar todas las piezecitas me di cuenta que faltaba el tablero de acción principal Sigo a la espera de que me devuelvan el importe Una perdida de tiempo y, por ahora, de dinero Read more

I think A Feast For Odin is a remarkably fun game. It has a lot of depth, there's several courses of action per play, and each number of players alters the game drastically (fewer actions available, repeatable actions, competition for resources...). Also, the build quality is very high for the boards. This is, at its heart, a worker placement game. It is the engine that drives the machine toward its goal of attaining points. Though, in this game you begin deep in the red so-to-say, with a fillable board covered in negative value. The added board that one must fill and cover to attain positive points is the twist, and one of the core mechanics. You spend your workers on getting oddly shaped and sized geometric pieces into your inventory firstly (some of which can be eaten, some of which can't), and secondly then try and fit those pieces onto your board in such a way that you get the most points. Or bonus resources. Or raw currency gain. Oh, and without forgetting to feed your vikings! The nuances and relationships between gaining resources and spending them is a wonderfully diverse and rewarding, even at an entry level. This game makes you feel good even if you 'lose', because you gain something out of it. You learn what strategies work in long and short term, or how to interact more carefully with other player sizes. You always come away with something gained. This game's complex for sure, but don't let that dissuade you. It has a LOT of actionable items, but at the surface level those actions are easily understood, the true heart of the complexity is in the later game ramifications of your actions earlier, whether or not you should place more items on your board to snag important free resources earlier, or perhaps you should've explored?...But those things can be gleaned later, and help you grow as a player. I think, despite its seemingly large initial payload, this game is very easy to learn provided you're even lightly familiar with worker placement games, but I'd say it's hard to master. Definitely can recommend to even modest board game enthusiasts. My only complaint is that it's 4 players, but it's an absolutely understandable limitation for now. Read more

Great game Read more

This game combines Uwe's signature mechanics, such as polyomino tiles, plethora of action spaces, more than 12 type of resources, and huge debt at the start of the game amongst other things. It felt like a mixtape of greatest hits, all contained in one box Read more
