Oh, you think you’re a serious board gamer, do you? Well, allow me to introduce you to Twilight Imperium (just imagine I dramatically slam the box onto the table). This epic space strategy is infamous amongst the board gaming world for being massive, complicated, and brilliant.
I can dispel one of those myths off the bat, because once you get into the swing of things, Twilight Imperium isn’t all that complex. There are a lot of moving parts to be sure, but it’s incredibly intuitive. It is massive, though – there’s no getting around that this game requires an enormous table to play on, and at least a full day commitment if you want to finish it. And yet, despite that, I still think it’s one of the best board games ever made.
