Watch “Rants And Reviews: The Perfect Wave,” a board game review for The Perfect Wave from Nerd News Social on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by Nerd News Social on YouTube:

It's Friday, and that means it's time to once again talk about a weekly board game! This time we are checking out The Perfect Wave. The Perfect Wave is a recent game from The OP Games. The game is all about riding the perfect wave, one of the most relaxing, and patience based activity turned into a multi turn competitive card/board game. In the game you get your own beach card that represents you attempting to catch and ride a wave. On the game you will paddle out, playing trick and wave cards along your tracker until all the maneuver cards are played out of their deck. Once the game is over, the cards of the waves are flipped over one after another until a wave either fails or ends. Then players score their wave points adding any run bonuses, set bonuses, trick card bonuses, and goal card points. The player with the most points wins. Pick up your own copy of The Perfect Wave here: https://amzn.to/3EW43HA #ThePerfectWave #Surfing #Waves #TheOPGames #UsaopolyGames #CardGames #BoardGames #Review #NerdNewsSocial

About The Perfect Wave, from BoardGameGeek:

Grab your board, paddle out, and try to put together the most impressive sequence of tricks on some of the most iconic waves in the world. Show your skills better than your rivals, and you'll ride the perfect wave to victory! The Perfect Wave presents a very fun and unique challenge. You'll need to successfully create a wave by drafting Wave cards to construct a sequence, earning points for runs and sets of numbers. Play Trick cards to show off and score bonuses. But you'll also need to simultaneously focus on paddling far enough out in the water to actually catch, surf, and score the very wave you're creating! And here's the twist...the more time spent creating your wave, the less you'll be able to paddle out...and the more you paddle out, the trickier it becomes to create your wave! You'll need careful planning and expert timing to balance these goals and win the game! The Perfect Wave was the winner of the 2021 Cardboard Edison Award.
