Trekking the World Second Edition Review - Cloudy with a Chance of Meeples

Description

Trekking the World 2nd Edition is a light, gateway strategy game where you race to the world's most fascinating places, draft itineraries, collect souvenirs, and gain powers that combo. The 2nd edition is a complete mechanical overhaul based on analysis of thousands of online comments about 1st Edition, and our evolving design principles. We've tried to create a game hobbyists AND their families will like. A tough design challenge. Who It's For: Hobbyists who want to entice non-gamer friends and family into playing Hobbyists who like rules-light games with some hidden strategy Folks getting into the hobby for the first time Folks looking for a gift (it feels premium) Folks who want to turn their 10-and-up kids onto strategy games Folks who want to learn about cool places in the world, or want their kids to Who It's Not For: Folks who adore 1st Edition (why risk regression to the mean?) Folks for whom the blocking in 1st Edition is essential - we replaced it with other interactions (but it's easy to house-rule it back in). Hobbyists who dislike rules-simple games regardless of strategic qualities -description from the publisher
