The game is beloved for its simple concept\u2014gathering the resources you need to build up your settlement\u2014as well as the mechanics it\u2019s wrapped up in\u2014doing so both faster and better than your opponents so you get enough points to declare victory.<\/p>\n<p>The dice-and-card game itself is easy to set up, with its stylish and colorful tiles, cards, and pieces. For each game, you\u2019ll shuffle up the 19 hexagonal resource tiles\u2014which include grain, wool, brick, wood, and ore\u2014and lay them out in the order you draw them within the six coastal frame pieces. Players will then take turns choosing where to place their first two settlements, and if there\u2019s only one thing you learn about <i>Catan<\/i>, let it be this: Placement is everything. You can try to hog all of one resource if you\u2019re able, or try to get a good mix of resources.<\/p>\n<p>Victory is won by scoring the agreed upon amount of points, which is usually 10. You can earn points by building new settlements and cities, by creating (and holding onto the title of) the longest road, by having the biggest army, and by snatching up points-rich development cards.<\/p>\n<p>And, of course, the real kicker of <i>Catan<\/i> is that you\u2019ll need to work <i>with<\/i> your opponents just as much as you\u2019re working against them. You\u2019ll need to trade the resources you don\u2019t need for the ones you do in a way that (hopefully) only benefits you, so be careful with the alliances you form or to whom you trade your sheep or wood to. Don\u2019t let its cute design fool you: Like <i>Monopoly<\/i>, <i>Catan<\/i> has the ability to challenge even the heartiest of friendships. Good luck!<\/p>\n<div class=\"download-buttons\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Download on the Apple App Store\" aria-label=\"Download on the Apple App Store\" href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/catan-universe\/id1220346113\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Download on the Apple App Store\" class=\"download-button apple\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/wp-content\/themes\/lsm\/img\/ios_badge.svg\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/a><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Get it on Google Play\" aria-label=\"Get it on Google Play\" href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.usm.catanuniverse&amp;hl=en_US&amp;gl=US\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Get it on Google Play\" class=\"download-button android\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/wp-content\/themes\/lsm\/img\/android_badge.png\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/a><\/div>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"So_Life-Like_The_Game_of_Life\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"moka_anchor_SoLifeLikeTheGameofLife\">So Life-Like: The Game of Life<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 1600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-71819 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/7af7d141f3b74b968980b9d399cae901\/p\/uploads\/2021\/02\/f45eb06f.png\" alt=\"The Game of Life main screen with game options\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" data-crediturl=\"https:\/\/hasbrogaming.hasbro.com\/en-us\/product\/the-game-of-life-game:971D57C6-651A-41EE-9CE7-EE0835842E4A\" data-credittext=\"Hasbro\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/hasbrogaming.hasbro.com\/en-us\/product\/the-game-of-life-game:971D57C6-651A-41EE-9CE7-EE0835842E4A\">Hasbro<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Originally created in 1860, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/hasbrogaming.hasbro.com\/en-us\/product\/the-game-of-life-game:971D57C6-651A-41EE-9CE7-EE0835842E4A\"><i>The Game of Life<\/i><\/a> ($2.99 on iOS\/Android) was the first popular parlor game in the United States.

The game is named after the medieval fortified town French settlement in southern France, which is famous for its city walls. Likewise, you\u2019ll spend your turns tending to and building upon these very walls, along with the roads and fields that connect them.<\/p>\n<p>The game begins with just one of the dozens of terrain tiles face up in the center of the board. During each turn, players will draw a new tile and decide where to place it. That tile must be placed adjacent to a tile that\u2019s already in play, and it must extend the tile it touches, so a field connecting to a field, a city to a city, and so on.<\/p>\n<p>Players must then decide to place one of their meeples on that new tile, thus laying claim to any of its features and working to complete a feature (like a road or city). Players only have seven meeples, however, so planning skills and meeple conservation is a must.<\/p>\n<p>Completed features are how the final score is determined, with roads and cities having no unfinished edges, and cloisters when surrounded by eight tiles. Fields are a little different; you\u2019ll get points for each completed city bordering the field. The game ends when there are no remaining tiles to be drawn, and the winner is whoever manages to score the most points. <i>Carcassone<\/i>\u2018s simple mechanics and fast play speed make it a delightful choice for anyone that\u2019s new to board games.<\/p>\n<div class=\"download-buttons\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Download on the Apple App Store\" aria-label=\"Download on the Apple App Store\" href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/carcassonne-tiles-tactics\/id1199912736\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Download on the Apple App Store\" class=\"download-button apple\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/wp-content\/themes\/lsm\/img\/ios_badge.svg\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/a><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Get it on Google Play\" aria-label=\"Get it on Google Play\" href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.asmodeedigital.carcassonne&amp;hl=en_US&amp;gl=US\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Get it on Google Play\" class=\"download-button android\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/wp-content\/themes\/lsm\/img\/android_badge.png\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/a><\/div>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Fight_for_the_Biggest_Kingdom_Yellow_Yangtze\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"moka_anchor_AFightfortheBiggestKingdomYellowYangtze\">A Fight for the Biggest Kingdom: Yellow &amp; Yangtze<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 1600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-71821 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/d0aca1133f9c8405d524a894d5518533\/p\/uploads\/2021\/02\/d9341dee.png\" alt=\"A game of Yellow &amp; Yangtze with sparring nations playing next to each other\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" data-crediturl=\"https:\/\/grail-games.com\/yellow-yangtze\/\" data-credittext=\"Yellow &amp; Yangtze\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/grail-games.com\/yellow-yangtze\/\">Yellow &amp; Yangtze<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If you\u2019ve ever played <i>Tigris &amp; Euphrates<\/i>, you\u2019ll love <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/grail-games.com\/yellow-yangtze\/\"><i>Yellow &amp; Yangtze<\/i><\/a> ($9.99 on iOS\/Android).

It\u2019s based on the real Tokaido\u2014a historical thoroughfare in Japan during the Edo period\u2014connecting Tokyo to Kyoto.<\/p>\n<p>In <i>Tokaido<\/i>, players journey along this legendary road, stopping wherever they wish and completing an action that will eventually reward them with points. Possible actions include things like eating meals at an inn, collecting various pieces of artwork, snagging up artifacts, and donating to temples.<\/p>\n<p>There are plenty of unique strategies for winning the game, but the most popular includes stopping at everywhere you can so you can block the location to other players and slowly accrue much-needed points. As players move across <i>Tokaido<\/i>, they\u2019ll also move their corresponding token across the journey point tracker. And scoring is simple: Whoever has the most points wins.<\/p>\n<div class=\"download-buttons\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Download on the Apple App Store\" aria-label=\"Download on the Apple App Store\" href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/tokaido\/id1215230801\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Download on the Apple App Store\" class=\"download-button apple\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/wp-content\/themes\/lsm\/img\/ios_badge.svg\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/a><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Get it on Google Play\" aria-label=\"Get it on Google Play\" href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.funforgedigital.tokaido&amp;hl=en_US&amp;gl=US\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Get it on Google Play\" class=\"download-button android\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/wp-content\/themes\/lsm\/img\/android_badge.png\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/a><\/div>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Short_Railway_Adventures_Ticket_to_Ride\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"moka_anchor_ShortRailwayAdventuresTickettoRide\">Short Railway Adventures: Ticket to Ride<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 1600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-71823 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/5d9dd420cf9437b61981abd214cf51a1\/p\/uploads\/2021\/02\/c3c82eee.png\" alt=\"Ticket to Ride game with competing railways on the map\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" data-crediturl=\"https:\/\/www.asmodee-digital.com\/en\/ticket-to-ride\/\" data-credittext=\"Ticket to Ride\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.asmodee-digital.com\/en\/ticket-to-ride\/\">Ticket to Ride<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The only thing better than a beautiful train ride is a railway-themed board game, which is exactly what <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.asmodee-digital.com\/en\/ticket-to-ride\/\"><i>Ticket to Ride<\/i><\/a> ($6.99 on iOS\/Android) offers players.

Points are based on claimed railway length, whoever creates the longest continuous railway, and whether or not a player can connect multiple distant cities determined by drawing ticket cards.<\/p>\n<p><i>Ticket to Ride<\/i> is fun for kids to play, with its simple rules and straightforward scoring. However, it still manages to present a challenge for adults as well, as players can choose between straight up scoring points or disrupting the routes (and other well-laid plans) of their opponents, or even managing the balancing act between costly failures and mission rewards.
