FLAMECRAFT
Designer: Manny Vega | Publisher: Lucky Duck
The much hyped Flamecraft arrived on our desks with some preconceptions. We’d heard it is very good. We’d seen that most of the online discussion was about whether to upgrade components or get a plushie or enamel pin of the extremely cute dragons that make up the art and theme of the game. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, but when there’s so much discussion around the production of the game a reviewer can become concerned.
But I needn’t have been. Flamecraft is a simple, smooth, and interesting game. While I’m not sure if it’s a masterpiece, it has all the qualities of a game done so well that yes, anyone and everyone should at least try it.
