Drake & Drake (2002)

About this game

War & Sheep, Tony & Tino and Drake & Drake are the first two player games published by Eurogames. All three were designed by Bruno Cathala. Drake and Drake, the more complex and possibly the most strategic of the three games, is a kind of abstract boardgame with event cards that allow either to place new pawns on the board, either to move them in many different ways. Part of the Eurogames Games for 2 Series.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 1.5/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
