| Our verdict | Splendor is a tightly tuned engine builder whose sweet spot sits firmly at three players for optimal board churn. The stock plastic insert accommodates the heavy poker-style chips and cards neatly, though sleeved cards may require aftermarket storage. The base game is self-contained, with expansions entirely optional. | A pure drafting design whose strategic sweet spot sits firmly at two or three players, where tile tracking remains calculable. The resin components are exceptionally tactile, though the flat player boards allow scored tiles to slide out of position if bumped. The game stands entirely on its own with no expansions required to complete the loop. |
