Staffs’ Picks
GEORGE’S PICK
Scythe
1-5 Players • 90-115 Min • Medium-Heavy — Strategy Buff Picks
A dieselpunk empire-builder set in an alternate 1920s Eastern Europe, where rival factions race to farm land, gather resources, and deploy massive mechs across a gorgeous painted map. Each player runs a fully asymmetric faction with its own strengths, abilities, and starting position — no two plays feel the same. Deeply strategic, visually stunning, and endlessly satisfying once it clicks.
