7 Wonders on WIN#417
Every year in Essen there is a game that stirs up the world of gamers, throwing them into a sort of spasmodic expectations, sparking curious phenomena of fanatic pre-show frenzy: disproportionate numbers of preorders, a rush to grab the last copy, preview acclaims that „This is the new Puerto Rico“. Often this pre-show madness results in a flash in the pan as was the case for Duck Dealer or Khronos, titles soon forgotten or sailing in the great group of games good but not exceptional. Other times you are faced with evidence of originality and strength as was the case for Dominion or Agricola.
