Hey everyone.

I got the steam game on a sale some time ago. Now my wife is playing it a lot more than me through family share. Her birthday is coming up and I’m thinking about getting the game for her as it also won Spiel des Jahres this year.

Have any of you played the game? I’d be happy to hear any experiences you want to share.

    If Dorfromantik is a game—and I’m 💯 not saying it’s not a game, it looks fun and cozy actually—then doing a jigsaw puzzle with a friend is also a game 🤷🏻‍♀️

    But that’s not too shabby since jigsaw puzzles are fun and an endless box of one seems like a fun time. I got Mists over Carcassonne a while back for the same reason, although that game is stressful and agonozing while Dorfromantik is chill.

    One thing I’l give Dorfromantik a lot of credit for is how they laid out the houses on the so that “all directions are up” so it looks nice and ambiguous and not too jarring. An Escheresque feat. We’ve been playing Zamek lately and it really suffers from having the tiles drawn and shaded such that one direction is clearly up.
