Concordia has become our game of the year. Sometimes a game quietly earns its place: it is the one you reach for after work because it asks for precisely the amount of thought a weekday evening can bear.

Gallia is a narrow map, and it makes the opening matter straight away. The ports pull players in early, there is little room for aimless development, and at five it feels agreeably tight without becoming murky. The race stayed properly alive to the end, with very little separating the leaders. Those are the sessions that linger: not loud, not theatrical, just exceptionally well judged.

It does not need a grand new trick. Gallia gives Concordia a denser, more purposeful table, and that is quietly excellent.

  • Review EPOS: A Gentes Game

    EPOS: A Gentes Game gives the much-loved Gentes a modest polish and a campaign of scenarios that seems ready to pull it in fresh directions. Its one serious demand is a properly organised box.

  • Review Cold War: CIA vs KGB

    Cold War: CIA vs KGB is not the last word in games about its subject. But for a child trying to understand a war with no famous battlefield attached, it is a gentle and useful place to begin.

  • Review Propolis

    Propolis is a fresh, light city builder with pleasing resource management and the good sense to finish in under an hour. It offers enough shape to feel satisfying without asking for an entire evening.
