Today’s question comes from Mike Murphy who writes:
What’s the difference between a Euro game and an American game? I see reviews where they describe a game as a Euro type game what are they referring to?
Examples of Eurogames:
Catan,
Puerto Rico,
Carcassonne,
El Grande,
Terra Mystica,
The Castles of Burgundy,
Concordia,
Brass Lancashire,
Keyflower,
Troyes,
Amerithrash Examples:
Xia,
Space Hulk,
Talisman,
Blood Bowl,
Imperial Assault,
Zombicide,
Mansions of Madness,
King of Tokyo,
Survive,
Arcadia Quest,
