Surfs up! Everyone grab your boards and let’s go paddle out to greatness with the surfing board game The Perfect Wave from The Op Games. It’s an action points game in which players have to play wave and trick cards, then paddle out to perform for the world to see! It’s a deceptively challenging back and forth struggle of building the perfect wave and paddling out in time to ride it. We’ll give you all of our thoughts on The Perfect Wave in our full video review. Watch our unboxing video here: https://youtu.be/Hq7pKFHCmmQ We were sent a copy of The Perfect Wave from The Op so we could do this unboxing video and a review video coming soon!

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.
