Abroad - Board Game Review - Who Takes A Holiday To Birmingham?

Abroad - Board Game Review - Who Takes A Holiday To Birmingham? You've always wanted to travel the world, and now you have a chance to do it for a living! A position has opened up at the most prestigious travel guide publisher, and you have four weeks in Europe to show that you are the right person for the job. Visit stunning locations, meet locals, get insider tips, collect postcards from famous attractions, and maybe even visit a festival on weekends or fulfill an adventure worthy of a bucket list. Europe awaits you in Abroad, and you need to figure out how you're going to make the most of the opportunity. You'll start with a hand of seven location cards from a deck of 240, as well as a postcard with an endgame goal. Start in your choice of Europe's ten regions. The game lasts four rounds, with each round consisting of seven days. Take turns in a round until you have spent all of your days. On a turn, you can stay where you are, or travel to a new location by plane (by spending money) or by train (be spending energy). Then take one of four activities: Write about the location. Rest, spending a day and three cards to earn 2 energy. Plan, spending a day to draw three cards. Carry out an activity, spending as many days as listed on a card in your hand matching your region. After four rounds, score all your postcards based on whether you met their primary or secondary goal, then see who has logged the most points as evidence of their awesome travel skills. For the solo game of Abroad, you compete against a bot that always has three location cards in a row that determine where it travels next, although you spend money or energy to discard its locations and send it elsewhere. —description from the publisher Timestamps: 00:00 - Introduction 02:16 - Overview 06:28 - The Review 22:35 - Solo Mode 25:20 - Summary and Verdict *************************************** BUY THE SAME TOKEN DISCOUNT!

One single batchelor from the UK talking about his passion for board games and the people who play them! I support small content creators, board game cafes and go against the status quo when it comes to the board game industry. I give my honest opinions without bias towards any publishers or designers and will not hold back if I don't like a game. You don't like my opinion, that's fine, but I'm not going to sugar coat my thoughts or suck up to the highest paying bidder. I'm here for the consumer and I wish to remain objective. The Broken Meeple is a variety channel that hosts all kinds of board game content from reviews to Top 10 lists to playthroughs to live streams. I look forward to engaging with you, the community on my live streams or in the comments on my videos! *************************************** #brokenmeeple #smallgames #tinygames #boardgame #lukehector #supportsmallcreators #tabletop #tabletopgames #bgg #boardgamer #boardgamereview *************************************** Useful Links Become a Patreon ►   / thebrokenmeeple   Facebook ►   / thebrokenmeeple   Twitter ►   / thebrokenmeeple   Instagram ►   / thebrokenmeeple   Podcast ►   / luke-hector-broken-meeple   Full credit to BoardGameGeek and its members for any images used that aren't my own or part of the publisher press kit.
