Carnegie 🚂 In Carnegie, players are aiming to be the influential entrepreneurs building an industrial empire. 🏭 There are 20 rounds. Players take turn choosing one of four departments on the timeline and perform the action using the activated workers. Players have to pay attention to the timeline and opponents moves to be able to optimise income collection. There are opportunities to make a donation which helps secure end-game points. Department tiles are limited! There is this race element among players to grab those juicy ones before they ran out! Players also compete to be the first to reach the end of each region track. Our thoughts: We finally tabled our copy of the game, after playing it a while ago! Carnegie is a truly thematic Euro, where every decision hurts 🤕. Donations is an important element of the game. So you will want to be able to always pay for it. If you are able to predict your opponents move, you would be able to take advantage of it by sending your workers to the regions that will likely trigger income collection! This game rewards you if you are able to do a bit of everything. We always feel we could have done/ optimise more after the game ends 😅 We also are so in love with the game inserts and components, which makes the game even neater! 🤩 What’s a Euro game that you have played lately?

we are fans of the designer!!! I think Carnegie is a decent game, but since the board is static across games, there are some optimal cities to place discs and better offices to build, which makes the game more chess-like for me. It's really hard to win against someone who just knows the optimal moves. but as a kitchen table game, it's sooo fun!
