Semeurs de Sereis : Exode

The card drafting is what got me, you're laying down ark sections piece by piece and every pick feels like it matters. First English printing too, so no more squinting at fan translations. My group played three rounds back to back.

Didn't expect a board game about building an ark to get this tense, but every card draft feels like a real trade-off between saving modules and saving people. The English translation reads clean too, no clunky rulebook moments. Played three rounds back to back and immediately wanted a fourth.

The card drafting for the ark modules gets tense fast, especially when you're racing to grab the last engine before someone else. I've played it three times this week and each game ended differently. The English translation reads clean too, no awkward phrasing like I feared.
