Gingham And Gazebo : First Thoughts!

Board Game Buzzz

Board Game Buzzz

Watch “Gingham And Gazebo : First Thoughts!,” a board game review for Gazebo from Board Game Buzzz on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by Board Game Buzzz on YouTube:

Hello Friends! Come and hang out with me today while I chat about the newest titles from Bitewing Games, Gingham and Gazebo! QUICK NOTE ON GAZEBO - The base game will just come with one double sided mat. The extra one is an expansion that is free for backers during the Kickstarter! In Gazebo, players take turns placing premium dominos on the shared garden map to establish nooks — that is, two or more contiguous terrain spaces of the same type: flower, foliage, or water. When a player creates a nook, they place one of their gazebos on top of it, and by connecting their nook to a patio, they can claim the patio and place a gazebo on it. While Gingham is a tricky game of confection connection. In this cardless game inspired by trick taking, players position their queens around the gingham picnic blanket and deploy their ants to connect sweets and claim the stockpiles they create. The lead player determines which edge of the playing area all players must play on each round. Everyone then places their queen next to a row on this edge, then deploys an ant into the row where they place their queen. The catch is that you cannot deploy your ant beyond the stitch in the blanket, and the rows closer to the star at the end of the row offer fewer options. That said, whoever places their queen closest to the star becomes the leader of the next round and places their queen next to a row on any other edge of the playing area; players take turns in order of the queens in the previous row. Do you opt for a better turn order position for next round or more flexibility for ant placement this round? Huge Shout out to Bitewing Games for sending this copy of the game for me to try out! (This is a prototype copy of the game, all rules and components are subject to change.) The crowdfunding campaign for these two titles are currently live on kickstarter right now!

About Gazebo, from BoardGameGeek:

Fill the botanical gardens with fragrant flowers, lush foliage, and soothing waters as you erect your gazebos among the tranquil features and atop prized patios. In Gazebo, players take turns placing dominos on the shared garden map to establish nooks - that is, two or more contiguous terrain spaces of the same type: flower, foliage, or water. When a player creates a nook, they place one of their gazebos on top of it, and by connecting their nook to a patio, they can claim the patio and place a gazebo on it. But not all is peaceful in this game of garden landscaping. Larger nooks can absorb smaller nooks, and patios can be stolen by cunning rivals. The first player to place all of their gazebos on the board wins! Gazebo is an evolution of Reiner Knizia's classic game Qin and introduces many innovations by: Improving the method of drawing single-colored and double-colored dominoes for less luck and more tension Increasing the variety of gameplay features across the all-new base game maps and expansion maps Deepening the strategic possibilities with Zen spaces, vases, and pedestals Ramping up the conflicts with more valuable contested spaces and more tactical flexibility Debuting an exciting new partnership mode for four players Condensing a now bigger experience into a smaller and more portable package Broadening the appeal and approachability with a new garden theme beautifully illustrated by Alisha Giroux Gazebo is the first official title to kick off Bitewing Games' Travel Line. -description from the publisher
