Packaging/appearance


Everything was packaged very well and all parts have a designated spot in the box that makes for an easy clean up.


Also this is probably the best packaged game i’ve ever bought.

    These guys actually want you to play their game instead of having it collect dust on the shelf because nobody wants to be bothered with pregame clean up duty

    Ffg literally took sid meiers civilization a digital board game and threw roughly 1000 pieces into a box loosely and sold it like that its the same for all of their games


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The actual gameplay was lacking though and that lowers the overall rating
