Parks
About
A trick taking game themed around visiting the US National Parks. Played across 4 seasons during each season you collect resources that are used to purchase parks at the end of each season. Each park has a point value that the winner is the person with the most points at the end of 4 seasons.
With gorgeous art and simple rules, this one is an easy win for almost anyone.

4/5 Very Good
With two people this is a fun little game. With four people, wow does it change to a much more difficult and cut throat game. With two people there is almost no conflict over spaces or resources but with four people each and every move takes some thought. I like it with either way but for different reasons as it's an entirely different game depending on player count.

4/5
What a delightful game - though the length and complexity rises when playing with 4 rather than 2. I enjoyed it best with 2, though I think I'd prefer to try it again with 4. The Nightfall expansion would add some more room to the board as well as other ways to win for a 4 person group. The pieces are very well made and the art is excellent. I looked forward to pulling new park cards just to see what they look like. It also has a high replayability between the change of seasons, gear for purchase and parks themselves. I truly enjoyed every time I played this game.
