This game sold out SO fast at Essen Spiel – it’s easy to see why 😍 | Art Society Board Game Review

When we read the rulebook for this one it seemed quite straightforward – bid for tiles, choose where to place them, and don’t break the rules for placement. But there’s something here that is greater than the sum of its parts, and we’ve now witnessed group after group of people we’ve introduced this game to ADORE the smooth gameplay and beautiful wall of art they’ve managed to create by the end of the game. We hope this review helps you assess whether this might be a game for your household (or not!) Thanks for watching!

Thanks for stopping by for our review of Art Society! 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.
