Review Barcelona
8.4Good
Barcelona is a tactical and accessible board game where players must find the right tactics and adapt to win, while integrating a strong theme. Although it can become repetitive and prone to analysis paralysis, it remains an attractive option for those who enjoy dynamic games and varied strategies.
Positives
- Many ways to score points: The game rewards you constantly, regardless of your strategy.
- A fairly thematic game.
Negatives
- May not be restrictive enough for some players
- You have to like “point salads”: The final score can be high, which may not please all players.
- Watch out for the 4 player AP.
