Restart Boardgame Review - 5 Things We Love about this game

Watch “Restart Boardgame Review - 5 Things We Love about this game,” a board game review for Restart from BoxedMeeples on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by BoxedMeeples on YouTube:

We’ve been playing Restart by Teetotum Games… and yes, we may have tampered with the timeline a few times in the process. In this video, we share our first impressions of this time-travelling, engine-building game where you’re trying to stop a dystopian future by laying cards on a shared board to complete combination misions. Each player is juggling their own “mind board”, building up actions and resources while sending both their adult and younger selves around the board. But dont forget the looming fear of causing a paradox, that never ends well. One of the things we really enjoyed is the modular nature of the game. With multiple dystopias to play through — each with its own twist on the core system — it keeps things feeling fresh, like you’ve jumped into an entirely new version of the future each time. It’s a clever mix of planning, adapting, and occasionally realising that Past You has made things significantly worse for Future You… which feels uncomfortably relatable. If you enjoy games that play around with time, consequences, and building up your own little system of actions, Restart is definitely one to keep an eye on. All footage shown here comes from the 2026 Prototype and may change in the final production.

About Restart, from BoardGameGeek:

Restart is a competitive, tactical, time-travel-themed engine-building game. In the near future, humanity collapses into a dystopia. In a last-ditch effort, scientists invent brain-connected nanochips that allow travelers to move through time and alter events. However, rival alternative futures clash and the prosperity of one means the ruin of another. Will you save your future? The game unfolds across three timelines: the past, the present and the future. Each player controls a time traveler and their younger past self and has a personal mind board. On their turn, each player activates one of their four mind abilities. PERCEPTION: Complete missions on the spacetime grid by spending time. INTELLIGENCE: Acquire new missions by interacting with the dystopia. MEMORY: Gain resources. FOCUS: Upgrade actions by playing cards on your mind board. Restart features four unique dystopias that are played individually. Each dystopia has distinct mechanics while maintaining the same core system, offering variety and replayability. -description from the publisher
