Matthew BaileyNote: This is a short really early legacy review before I started posting longer form review in our Facebook Group.
Having been left out of most games recently (largely because they often occur when Henry(1) is being put down for a nap Mummy/Katie was very pleased today to join us all for game 16 of the “Bailey Family Sorta Summer Board Game Bonanza” which is “7 Wonders Architects” joined by myself, Jack(7) and Toby(4).
For those of you familiar with the original or duels this is basically a simpler motr party game version of 7 wonders that scales really well up to 7 players (have played with 7 and it works great).
“7 Wonders Architects” is a fairly simple game. you each choose a wonder that you have to build in sections (earning points for each section). You then place your deck in the gap and can then on your turn draw from the decks on either side of you and the middle one.
By collecting resources you can build parts of your wonder which gain you points. There are other things as well such as getting science resources to gain abilities, gaining war tokens to fight others to gain more points or just gaining straight victory points.
I absolutely love “7 Wonders Architects” and it has quickly become my go-to game for larger groups. It scales up to 7 players and plays well at all levels.
Component quality is high and the way it all packs away in the box is wonderful.
A massive recommendation from me for this (I will do my best to play a bad game tomorrow).
