Engine building, train networks, hiring personnel to grant you abilities…this game has everything I like. Better yet, no dice! “Empyreal: Spells & Steam” is a bit on the pricey side (the MSRP according to the Kickstarter was around $90), but if you have the money to drop on this you’ll be in for a treat. The quality of the components rivals that of “Wingspan”, most notably the leathery feel of the manual and player boards. The rest of the components look and feel great too. Aidalee was most impressed that the train models were different depending on color…a subtle bonus that I myself missed.
