Out of all the board game genres out there, abstract is probably one of my favorites. Sure, I like a good dice rolling game on occasion and some worker placement games have earned their place on my shelf…but nothing gets the brain going like a good abstract game. No luck, no B.S…if you mess up, it’s your own fault. “Santorini” is as abstract as they come and by golly, it’s a lot of fun. The goal of the game is simple but getting to that goal, well…let’s just say that if your opponent is even remotely competent then you’re in for a ride.
