Number 1 for me is far and away Century: Spice Road from Plan B Games. This has been described as Splendor with more depth and strategy.
CMON has quite a few games we're wanting to look at as well. Lorenzo il Magnifico comes from the same designers of Grand Austria Hotel and looks to be a good worker-placement game. Also, the recently released Ethnos is an area control, hand-management game that's been getting lots of buzz. We'll be spending a bit of time at the CMON booth checking out these and other new and recent releases. Stronghold Games once again has a good lineup with releases like Not Alone and Fields of Green. We're hoping to get demos on both of those with intent to buy.
We're also excited to see a new offering from a company that hails from our neck of the woods. Happy Harpy Games will be giving demos of their new game, Robot Rise! , ahead of their August 1st Kickstarter campaign. Can't wait to see how it plays!
...And these are but a very few of the games we'll be checking out this week. We'll try to keep our twitter feed up-to-date with all of the cool things we see. Stay tuned...
