Game Overview: Seasons

Game Overview: Seasons
Board Game: Seasons
Before being rushed away for emergency medical care, I give a rundown of Régis Bonnessée's Seasons from Libellud – what players are trying to do, the flow of the game, particular elements that may or may not appeal to people. Seasons briefly made an appearance at Gen Con 2012 before selling out within an hour of the doors opening on the initial day of that convention. The game should be available on a widespread basis in September 2012.
