Mangrovia Review - with Zee Garcia

[@69spagetti]

Nice one Zee. I think an important detail left out is that you have to pay the exact amount of offerings for your space. Can't pay over and get change. This adds more angst. Love this game.

Thanks for the review Zee. This one looks up my alley. I'll be keeping an eye out for it.

I'm amazed this game can't be found at the big online game stores. How come it doesn't have US distribution?

This might be a dumb question: But what do people mean by "Eurogame?"

[@andestung5728]

+Jaehwa Jeong Lot of definitions. Personally I'd say it's the kind of games with little direct players interaction. Basically every player is just doing his own stuffs, placing workers, building this, grabbing that stuffs like that. Working placement games are one of the best examples of an Eurogame.

+Jaehwa Jeong, personally I do not like the dichotomy of eurogames and amerithrash games, as most games nowadays combine elements from both genres. But in their raw form, the difference is that amerithrash games are more focused on telling a story while euro games are focus on creating clever game mechanisms. Amerithras games often come with better components (such as miniatures), have more direct player interaction and involve more luck (rolling of dice, drawing cards etc). In euro games, players focus more on building their own engine, rather than tearing other players down through combat and such. The good thing is that many amerithras games nowadays comes with neat mechanisms and new ways to tell their stories, while euro games have become more beautiful looking and with better integrated themes. As such, I find that the dichotomy between euro and amerithrash has become pointless and that the only thing it does, is to separate gamers rather than bringing us together.

Vegard Eliassen Stillerud I see. Didn't really know people would divide games like that it becomes completely separated. Thanks for your input and opinion.
