Planet Unknown

For me, this is among my top 3 games of 2022. It´s playable solo, with 2 players it begins to be fun, but best with 4 in my opinion. played a couple of times with 6, still fun, but makes the game a lot harder. Works with seasoned gamers and newcomers alike played it with adults and teenagers and everybody enjoyed it so far. Every time I´ve played it so far, people concluded the game with can we have another round so yea, deffo a top game of the year for me. I noticed a few people asking about the spinning wheel and yes, it's part of this game version.

This is a super solid game that plays up to 6 and within 1 hour! Really recommend.

There is a reason people are excited about this game. I like more elegant games these days. Games that have simple rule sets but decent depth. This one meets that criteria. A great feature of the game is simultaneous play, so downtime is minimal. It also works for up to six players and plays in under an hour. The setup is also quick since many pieces can be stored in the lazy Susan. It was an instant hit for me and my family likes it as well.

Much recommend this breezy easy to play tetris style game. Has enough crunch to have even heavy euro players like myself enthralled.

Easy to jump in, a real puzzle to work out, and everyone wanted to play another game straight away!

The simultaneous play is good, I can't wait to try it with more players. With 2 players no one decides how much to rotate the lazy susan, so you can plan very far ahead. I like the mixed gameplay of choosing a polyomino that fits well in your planet, but also advances the tracks you want. The rulebook could be better, there was at least one question we had then went unanswered. The lazy susan does not fit in the box and bends it slightly, and the triple-layer player boards were a bit warped.

The game plays best with 3 or more players due to tile selection. The game provides variety with different player boards, which adds to the replay value of the game. I also really like that it accommodates six players. The game components are good quality, consisting of typical thick cardboard pieces and plastic miniatures. The rule book is written well enough to get you going relatively quickly. On your turn you simply choose a tile and place it. Simple enough. However tile placement is where the complexity of the game is found. It is a fun game that will hit the table from time to time, particularly when we are gaming with six people.

I played a 4-player game of Planet Unknown and we all had a great time with it! The lazy susan is an undeniably fun game component. If you are a fan of tetris-like game experiences, I would recommend this highly.

Absolutely awesome game. Not that difficult to learn despite the rulebook looking a bit complicated it’s actually like 4 pages. You start playing and you start thinking wow this game is really good. Then you realize wow all the iconography is great and will make picking up and knowing how to play nice and simple. Then after you finished you think about it and want to play it again. Amazing Game and is my pick for game of the year.

About the best polyomino game out there (Tetris-like tile placements). Comes with a lazy susan for ease of play around the table. The asymmetric corporations and planets keep things interesting, while the generic options are a good way to start new players.
