Evacuation is REALLY, REALLY good | A full review of every mode & module

Here's the thing: we don't really like games set in space (not an easy preference to navigate in board gaming!) However, when we read Vladimir's process for making this game, and the broader concept of it (the U shaped story progression we discuss) we knew we HAD to buy it at Essen. Plus, we loved last year's Woodcraft so that made this a must-buy for us... and we're so glad we did.
We hope this review helps you decide if this game is for you! Thanks for watching!

Thanks for stopping by for our review of Evacuation! We're Amy & Maggie aka ThinkerThemer. We're an Australian couple with two very different perspectives of what makes a great board game - Amy (Thinker) is all about the mechanics and enjoys tight, competitive games, and Maggie (Themer) is all about the storytelling and the theme of the game, and the 'world' that the designer is trying to create. Subscribe to our channel to hear us talk about these two elements of a game, and how well integrated we feel these are in delivering a cohesive and wonderful game experience.
