Ravensburger Castles of Burgundy Board Game | Engaging Strategy Game for Ages 12 & Up | Ideal for Family Game Night | 20th Anniversary Alea Edition | Rule The Realm Experience with Model:26925

Highly recommend this game. There is as much strategy as YOU put into it, and multiple ways to win. I like a game with challenge and the challenge levels up with your knowledge; this fit the bill perfectly. Decent pieces, not extravagant but I’d be happy if all my board games were like this in quality. A bit of setup involved, and it’ll be a long time before that rule book strays off the table. Requires thinking!

It’s no wonder this game shows up on so many top board game lists — it absolutely lives up to the reputation. The gameplay is unique but easy to understand once you get going, and it strikes that perfect balance of being strategic without feeling overwhelming. It instantly became a personal favorite. If you enjoy games with a bit of planning and plenty of satisfying decisions, this one's a keeper.

very good

It arrived really fast, and the game itself is awesome, and I was surprised because it has some mini expansions and even a teamplay mode. It's not an easy game and you have to play a couple of times to understand it, however, is one of the best euros.

Gave this to my wife for Christmas and it has become one of her favorite games.

Box came almost water damaged? But the contents inside were fine! This has slowly become one of me and my girlfriends favorite board games. She does not like anything super complex, but after learning this one through a couple of plays, it is easy to re-learn each time after playing a few times. I was hesitant because I know sometimes classics can age poorly, but man this one is very fun. Sit back relax get some medieval tunes playing, pour a glass of wine and have fun!

Great euro one of the best Felds

If you're reading this review to decide whether to get them game, yes, definitely do it. Its a classic for a reason. The premise seems super cringe (another European noble game?), but it doesnt matter. The gameplay is super fun, and its a perfect balance for a medium-lite heavy weight game. The restricted game play makes comboing up extra tile drafting or placement feel super satisfying. Also scoring is always a bit of a mystery until the end because of all the opportunities for end game points, so its always super competitive right up til the end even if it may seem like someone has a sizeable lead. Such a good blend of strategy and luck, plus the mechanics are fairly easy to pickup and the guides make it easy for folks like me who have terrible memories to keep track of what all the tiles do. We also recommend getting an organizer or custom insert for this game since it has many components. We have the Tower Rex one. We LOVE how it keeps everything, including all the expansion pieces,separate so setup is a snap. As for the quality from the seller, our copy did have a knick on the side seam of the box where it was likely cut with a box cutter after shipping. Other places usually sell this kind of copy as a dent and ding, even though the cut was small. Amazon did do a price adjustment for us to reflect that it was not in perfect condition (the cut will compromise the integrity of the box over the long term, but i can deal with taping it as that happens) which is enough for me to be satisfied. If we had wanted to return it for a refund, we were given that option, too. So if you NEED to have a pristine copy of a new game, know that they will take care of you if it isnt in mint condition when you receive it.
