Notre Dame
2007 · 2-5 Players · ~45-75 min · Competitive
Notre Dame is one of Stefan Feld's most focused and replayable designs, built around a card drafting system that creates meaningful decisions from the very first pick. The escalating reward structure makes every cube placement matter, and the rat plague mechanic keeps everyone honest without dominating the experience. Dated production values and limited person card variety hold it back from the top tier, but for a medium-weight euro that packs real strategic tension into under an hour, it remains a strong choice nearly two decades after its release.
