Focus Review
Focus sucked me in with its twisty tactics and sneaky piece stacks. It’s all brains, no lucky dice rolls. Not for party animals, but perfect for folks who want a real duel of wits and planning. Solid stuff.
Abstract Strategy
These games focus on strategy rather than luck or a theme. They usually have minimalistic designs and rules, emphasizing skill and critical thinking. Examples include “Chess” and “Go” and “Stratego”.

Delta Review
Delta packs smart choices, cool animal meeples, and plenty of laughs into every session. The balance feels just right, with almost no luck nonsense. That insert though—yikes! Still, it’s become a regular at our game nights.

Shazamm! throws you into a wild wizard duel where mind games matter more than your spellbook. It’s tense, flashy, and easy to pick up, though those rules will have you scratching your head at first!

Target Review
Target is a wild disc-flinging party that had my friends howling with laughter and frustration. Fast turns, simple rules, but be warned: luck can send your perfect shot flying off the table! Great for laughs, less for strategy buffs.
