Get in, get the gold, grab a little more gold…okay maybe just one more piece of gol- OH NO! The dragon’s waking! Grab your gold and GET OUT!

For many, Pandemic has been the gateway game into the modern world of board gaming. We purchased this gem about ten years ago and it has since spent countless hours on the game table and is the centerpiece to some of our favorite game memories. 

Since its release, Pandemic has seen itself expand from the original game to a family of games all with the Pandemic name. The latest addition to the family is Pandemic: Rapid Response. 

It’s no secret that I’m a fan of card games! So when I was asked if I wanted to review the upcoming game Cover Your Kingdom.

Cover Your Kingdoms is from Grandpa Beck’s Games! The makers of Skull King, The Bears and the Bees, and Cover Your Assets! So I knew it had to be good.

We love finding those family games that hit that sweet spot between Simple to Learn and Strategically Challenging. It’s not always easy, but we’d heard some good things about Dragonwood in the past and after the announcement of its upcoming sequel, we knew it was time to give it a try. 

The saber-toothed tiger clan is on the search for a new leader! 

Players must prove themselves wise and resourceful by collecting the most supplies, attracting mammoths, bartering successfully with other clans, and paying homage to the old nature gods in order to be elected clan leader! Not only must you do this, but you must do it all while not forgetting to take care of the powerful, saber-toothed tiger Honga! Take care of him and he remains happy, neglect him and he will eat up all your supplies.

Do you have what it takes to become the most worthy leader?
