Our top recommendations in this category, and games that we personally own to fill this niche.
Cartographers
🟢 Ryan’s #40 All-Time
Summary: Fit shapes of various terrains into your map, doing your best to fill in space efficiently while also meeting the scoring conditions for that game.
You Might Like If… you enjoy spatial puzzles (think Tetris) and want a game that plays great across a broad range of players with a nice amount of variety from game to game with randomized objectives.
👍 Honorable Mentions
Games that missed being top picks, but that we still think are great choices for a lot of people.
Welcome To…
Summary: Plan ahead as you number your houses and design your neighborhood in this simultaneous-play flip-and-write game.
You Might Like If… you enjoy working on a puzzle where you need to plan ahead and want a game that can plays well anywhere from 2 players to 12+ players. The sequel Welcome to the Moon is our personal favorite in this line, but only supports 6 players, so the original is still a great option for playing with large groups.
👀 Worth a Look
Games we haven’t tried yet ourselves, but we believe could be a good choice in this category.
