Bot Factory | Board Game Review

Eagle-Gryphon Games has put out another new Lacerda game, and Brad and Toph sit down at the table to discuss it. Designed by Vital Lacerda and João Quintela Martins, Bot Factory is a medium-weight, worker placement and tile placement game with open drafting and objective bidding/completion akin to the game play of Lacerda's popular heavier-weight Kanban EV. How does the game play? Is it worth picking up if you're already a fan of Kanban EV? What if you've not played Kanban EV or other heavier weight games? Join us as we talk the ins and outs of this medium-weight Euro. Let us know your thoughts!
