Endless Winter ~ verrrry clever card play & very OK other stuff | Board Game Review

You and your people will start with very little - only the most basic skills and limited resources. But you know where that gets you? Not very far at all in the endless winter!!! To ensure you prosper over your opponent's villages you must immediately get to work upskilling, building your culture, constructing your camps, and killing your animals for meat to survive. In this game of multiple mechanics and mini-games, you need to try to keep all of these survival elements in balance.

Thanks for stopping by for our mechanics & theme board game review of Endless Winter. We're Amy & Maggie aka ThinkerThemer. We're an Australian couple with two very different perspectives of what makes a great board game - Amy (Thinker) is all about the mechanics and enjoys tight, competitive games, and Maggie (Themer) is all about the storytelling and the theme of the game, and the 'world' that the designer is trying to create. Subscribe to our channel to hear us talk about these two elements of a game, and how well integrated we feel these are in delivering a cohesive and wonderful game experience. #boardgames #thinkerthemer
