A National Park Exploration Game
Thisaward-winning board gameis a great one for both kids and adults.
Similar to Ticket To Ride, players race across the country.
However, in this one theyre visiting various national parks and collecting points.
The person with the most points at the end wins.
This game is a knockout success!
The game is beautiful with an extremely high quality board, lovely cards (the park cards are huge!
), big chunky wooden player pieces, and even the box is super thick.

A helpful review:I struggle teaching games to my gaming group.
My group is very varied when it comes to learning/skill.
Half prefer simpler styled games over heavy strategy, while the other half find the simple games mundane.
Azul exists in the middle of the two.
Like Ticket to Ride, Catan, and Pandemic.
It can be taught quickly.
And it’s deep and rich enough for everyone.
This game quickly made it’s way to the top of our frequent return list.
Players will act as bird enthusiasts, seeking to discover and attract birds for their aviary.
Throughout the game, players roll dice, draw cards, acquire food, lay eggs, and more.
The strategy has nuance, and the game seems really balanced.
Game play has a good flow, in part because of how well designed the boards and cards are.
The pieces feel really nice.
The playtime is not too short and not too long, and there are solo play options.
I honestly struggle to find any critiques for this game.
The winner is the player with the highest combined terraform rating and victory points.
I like challenges and having things be different so it’s been fun to play.
