Burgen Land (2008)

About this game

A strategic dice game for 2 players offering a lot of interaction. Each player tries to build his own castle complexes. Wall piece by wall piece the castle buildings and towers have to be connected. Triggering a scoring at the right time is the first step on the road to victory. Part of the Schmidt Spiele Easy Play line. Not to be confused with Burgenland by Ravensburger.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 1.4/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
