New board game: Dune Imperium Got into this over my last vacation and I'm really enjoying it. The main mechanic is worker placement which you use to fight battles on Arrakis and there's a small deck building component to it as well. The game comes from the same designers as Clank, which is a really fun deck building dungeon crawler. I'd give it a 7/10 - it's really fun, and the initial games are fast and enjoyable, but the complexity of the strategy isn't high enough for it to be compelling after you hit 50+ plays. Gameplay on the board is 1-2 hours, but on mobile tends to be closer to ~20 mins, which makes for easy playing.

I like this one a fair bit. One of the better worker placements. The deck building component was also more impactful to the game than I initially gave it credit for. I REALLY want to try out the team variant.
