Bullfrogs

EvEvanstar3.5

This is an interesting majorities game, where players add a card to the map, and then can use a number of action points as printed on the card to either place or displace frog tokens along the row or column the card was placed into. Each map card has a set number of spaces to hold frogs, and when a card is full, it's removed and a certain number of frogs starting with your opponent get to escape to neighboring cards. This can create chain reactions where multiple cards might score through escape movements. There's a relatively short playtime which is nice. There's enough to think about on your turn, so I was happy with the depth. It's a little chaotic with four players, so it's probably better with 2 or 3? I would play again, but I'm not planning to buy this for myself. ★ Art, Iconography and components functional ★ Clever or interesting mechanisms ★ Reasonably low downtime between turns with mildly AP players ☆ Multiple plays stay interesting ★ Low or mitigatable luck elements ★☆☆☆☆ Raw enjoyment
