Your goal to build a thriving community will require you to invest in new industry, build trade routes, provide for your growing population and build alliances with the old world. Efficiency and balance are key as you seek to gain the most influence over your opponents in this think-y, engine building, worker placement, resource-driven game.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Any true euro-gamer should know the name Martin Wallace.

Players also each receive a handful of workers represented by colored cubes, ready and able to get to work. In Anno, each worker is specialized in executing specific level tasks and can only be used for those benefits.<\/p>\n<p>Spread across the center of the table is a sprawling selection of industry tiles ranging from simple, common products such as bread and liquor to more complex creations like tractors and ship turrets. While each player\u2019s island comes equipped with the same predetermined tiles relating to farming and industries that produce basic building blocks such as steel and brick, players will use their workers to produce resources in an effort to grow their communities&#8217; industrial abilities.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to resource gathering, players will be attempting to satisfy the demands of the population represented by a series of cards corresponding to each worker\u2019s cube. More basic workers will request things like soap and canned goods, but as your population grows and evolves, with greater abilities comes more extravagant wants.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;22158&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_column_text]Fulfilling these population cards is key to scoring influence points to win the game. This is an interesting dynamic to the game. The game ends when one player has no population cards remaining, but fulfilling certain population cards provides additional workers which in-turn cause you to draw new worker cards. This was a little daunting over my first play of the game. About 4 or 5 turns into the game I wondered if anyone would ever be able to rid themselves of all their population cards &#8211; they seemed to be reproducing faster than I could fulfill them. I\u2019m happy to report in hindsight that as the population grows into a more modern community, those more modern population cards begin to limit your ability to draw additional cubes and equally allow players to strike cards from their hand.<\/p>\n<p>So it\u2019s a bit of an engine building adventure. I often found myself carefully planning my pursuits many turns in advance. In order to upgrade your population, certain resources are required, but those resources always seem to be 2 or 3 additional resources beyond your reach. I found it to be pretty satisfying every time I was able to achieve a new industry title that took me 4 or 5 turns to achieve.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;22159&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_column_text]The trade building aspect of the game provides players with a necessary means to expand your island as well as expanding your entire working strategy.<\/p>\n<p>Docks and ships go hand-in-hand. Docks are only capable of producing ships with a limited benefit and upgrading those to a higher producing facility is necessary for efficiently managing your trades and expansion. There are 2 distinct types of ships each producing their own navel benefit.<\/p>\n<p>The first ship resource is the ability to trade. These trade tokens can be used to acquire resources from opponents&#8217; islands. Players cannot deny someone who wants to trade, but they do receive gold as payment in exchange. I quickly discovered finding a balance between your imports and exports was essential to both your efficiency and growth.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;22150&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_column_text]Ships also produce exploration tokens. Similar to the trade tokens, exploration tokens can be exhausted to achieve certain population card goals, but they primarily serve as a means to expand your island by exploring the old world (adding additional tile spots to your island) and the new world (giving you exclusive access to things such as tobacco, cotton and rubber).<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the population cards, influence can be gained through a series of community objective cards as well as expedition cards which provide end game goals.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;22147&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_column_text]<strong>DIFFERENT PLAYER COUNTS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Most of the available industry cards on the gameboard come in pairs. This means in a 2-player game, you likely won\u2019t have to wrestle over the availability of that industry tiles you so desperately need. You would think those tiles would become a more rare commodity in larger player counts\u2026 and you\u2019d be right. But the flexibility in the game\u2019s strategy helps mitigate this issue. With more players, more emphasis is placed on your ability to trade for those resources and creates a potentially different dynamic than in a 2 player game (not to undersell the need to trade in a 2-player game).<\/p>\n<p>By my 3rd play of the game, decisions began to move pretty quickly. I found the game could be played in 90 minutes with 2 players. While the turns move fairly quickly, some of the think-y decisions are going to force the game to slow down at times and this will obviously be felt at higher player counts.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, the heart of the game doesn\u2019t change with the player count and I would recommend this at any of the game\u2019s player combinations.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;22155&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_column_text]<strong>COMPONENTS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Anno 1800 is primarily made up of player boards, cardboard tokens and tiles, wooden cubes and deck of cards. The tiles and tokens are all solid and feel fine in your hands.<\/p>\n<p>Setting up the primarily game board with the 120 industry\/construction tiles is a chore though. The box doesn\u2019t provide an insert, so I had to get a little creative in how I stored these tiles in a way that made setup easier for the next game.<\/p>\n<p>The card decks are a little flimsy, but it\u2019s not a major complaint &#8211; they got the job done. I do wish the player boards were a little sturdier &#8211; they just seemed a little too thin for my liking. Overall, the components are fine, they just didn\u2019t wow me.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;22156&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_column_text]<strong>ARTWORK<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While the components didn\u2019t wow me, the artwork definitely did in spots. The box cover is beautiful and a lot of the board backs feature pretty amazing artwork. I\u2019m not sure how much of this was taken from the video game, but it\u2019s new to me! The population cards definitely have more of a video game vibe. That being the case, the artwork of the people do look great though. I also felt the iconography throughout the game was really clear and strong. Some of the industry tile illustrations were a little small and fuzzy, but they were ok. Each player is also provided a game aid that helps identify everything in doubt.[\/vc_column_text]<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row_inner tdi_10  vc_row vc_inner wpb_row td-pb-row\" >\n<style scoped>\n\n\/* custom css *\/\n.tdi_10{\r\n                    position: relative !important;\r\n                    top: 0;\r\n                    transform: none;\r\n                    -webkit-transform: none;\r\n                }.tdi_10,\r\n\t\t\t\t.tdi_10 .tdc-inner-columns{\r\n\t\t\t\t    display: block;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_10 .tdc-inner-columns{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: 100%;\r\n\t\t\t\t}\n<\/style><div class=\"vc_column_inner tdi_12  wpb_column vc_column_container tdc-inner-column td-pb-span12\">\n<style scoped>\n\n\/* custom css *\/\n.tdi_12{\r\n                    vertical-align: baseline;\r\n                }.tdi_12 .vc_column-inner > .wpb_wrapper,\r\n\t\t\t\t.tdi_12 .vc_column-inner > .wpb_wrapper .tdc-elements{\r\n\t\t\t\t    display: block;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_12 .vc_column-inner > .wpb_wrapper .tdc-elements{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: 100%;\r\n\t\t\t\t}\n<\/style><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">[vc_column_text]<strong>FINAL THOUGHTS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Anno 1800 has been a bit of a roller coaster for me. I played my first game of Martin Wallace\u2019s Brass: Birmingham only 4-5 months ago and I still wake up with sweats, reliving some of the game\u2019s difficult decisions. How would Anno compare in weight to Brass?<\/p>\n<p>For better or for worse, Anno is not nearly as heavy a game. This certainly sits in that sweet mid-weight euro spot for fans of the genre who don\u2019t want to exhaust their ability to function. For me, this wasn\u2019t necessarily a bad thing at all.<\/p>\n<p>The first play of any new game is wrought with exploration and strategic wondering. From a visual sense, I had honestly expected a bigger game on the table. Anno is full of flat cardboard pieces and despite some nice artwork, didn\u2019t get me that excited.<\/p>\n<p>As I played through that first game, the decisions didn\u2019t seem that interesting, and while the potential for fun was there &#8211; it seemed underwhelming. I really liked the idea of expanding your island as well as exploring the \u201cnew world\u201d, but I didn\u2019t take full advantage of it. Many of the industry tiles seemed out of reach and unnecessary for my short-sighted goals. As I mentioned earlier, after 4 or 5 turns, I wasn\u2019t sure the game would ever end. I was obviously wrong, and as I wrapped up that first play, I began to see where I failed to utilize my workers and maximize more scores. I probably didn\u2019t love it, but I was intrigued.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;22149&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_column_text]The second play found me quickly building my fleet of ships and boldly growing my population without the fear of a 4 or 5 hour game. I enjoyed the challenges of building larger docks and upgrading my population.<\/p>\n<p>I also begin to see the fragile balance of upgrading your population too fast. Upgrading your workers too fast can leave certain industries without the necessary worker to efficiently produce the resources you still need. It was a tough lesson, but I really appreciated the challenge and looked forward to a more responsible approach. I also dabbled more in trading. Attempting to produce my own resources (primarily out of pride that first game) was just stupid. You obviously need to balance your exports or you end up spending all your gold and being left with no means to acquire those needed resources in a fair amount of time. In this sense, everyone is kind of working together, careful to only build out the absolutely necessary industries while leveraging your opponents achievements.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;22152&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_column_text]By the third play, I was chopping at the bit. I can\u2019t remember a game that I initially felt so luke-warm on after 1 play and completely did a 360.<\/p>\n<p>While it wasn\u2019t initially evident to me, I really began to appreciate the game\u2019s multiple paths to victory. I\u2019m not sure how many games I can play before it begins to get a little tired, but right now, replayability sits pretty high. There did seem to be a hint of Feast of Odin in Anno and that is a very positive thing.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;22151&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_column_text]<strong>VERDICT<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It took a bit to grow on me, but I really warmed up to Anno 1800. For me, the theme feels good: I love the old world construction and imagery. I also appreciate the diverse group of people and the silly things they ask for (kielbasa and fur coats, anyone?) They add a lot of fun and personality to the game.<\/p>\n<p>The lack of a definitive set number of rounds was a little intimidating &#8211; especially after the initial shock of my rapidly growing workforce. It\u2019s true &#8211; I did think the game would last forever, but now I appreciate the delicate balance between recklessly extending the game and efficiently managing your workers to optimize the game\u2019s arch.<\/p>\n<p>On the downside, Anno 1800 could be a little dry and serious for some tastes. The setup is also a bit of a bear, but for those willing to buy in &#8211; it won\u2019t be an issue.<\/p>\n<p>This is a think-y game that benefits those who relish careful planning and want just enough interaction to remind them other players are out there. In fact, effectively leveraging your opponents wealth can be hugely beneficial and central to your strategy.<\/p>\n<p>There does seem to be a number of approaches you can take to the game and a lot of interesting industry paths to explore. The revolving objective cards help keep the game fresh as well. I really enjoyed the theme, mechanics and decision making in this one. This is definitely one I would endorse for someone looking for a medium-weight euro that provides an engaging theme and interesting challenges.[\/vc_column_text]<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"[vc_column_text]Anno 1800 Designed by Martin Wallace\u00a0 |\u00a0 Art by Fiore GmbH Published by Kosmos 2-4 Players\u00a0 |\u00a0 120 Minutes[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] Tasked with developing a new community on this island is a difficult undertaking, especially since you initially have only a few residents at your disposal.
