Board Gamer review Sun, 24 Jan 2010

Small World is a civilization building board game where you race to inhabit territories, choosing different fantasy races and various special powers to build their empires. With countless different combinations of races and powers this game stays fresh and fun each time you play.

Small World is a colony building game - somewhat similar to Risk but much simpler and much prettier! You control a race of people instead of an army - so while it is a military style game there's no fighting or battling involved. Unlike other empire-building games we've played before, you won't be able to win the game with only one race, instead you need to choose two, three, or even four - and the skill of the game is in knowing when one race has done as much as it can and the player should start playing with another race and power combination. The game looks beautiful; the board itself, and the illustrations and designs on the playing pieces are really appealing.
