Small World

38 out of 48 gamers thought this was helpful

Small World is exactly what it says it is a world too small for everyone to live comfortably. You must conquer territory against other races as they rise and decline over the course of the game.

The game comes with 14 races and 20 special powers so there is many different potential combinations each game. This is what make the game fun for me is trying out different race/power combinations. One game you could be flying skeletons the next commando dwarves.

The artwork matches the gameplay perfectly. Small world is a light hearted fantasy game and the artwork captures that. It is a beautiful game just to look at.

The actual gameplay is relatively simple you conquer territories and in return gain victory points that allow you to win the game. However the different races and special powers give the game in extra push and adds a bit more depth to the game. As far as length of game I think it is paced rather well. The average game last about an hour.

Overall this is a fun light territory control game. If you are looking for a deep strategy then the game will surely be disappointed but if you are looking for a causal strategy game to occasionally play your friends and family this might be the game for you.
