Yokohama
2016 · 2-4 Players · ~90 min · Competitive
Yokohama's modular board and branching scoring paths create a heavy euro where every game feels distinct and multiple strategies remain viable throughout. The movement system, requiring you to build chains of assistants before your president can act, adds a spatial puzzle layer that sets it apart from standard worker placement fare. Iconography overload and a steep first-game barrier are real obstacles, but players who push through find a deeply rewarding trade game that has quietly earned its spot among the best heavy euros of the 2010s.
