For me it would probably be “7th continent”. It just feels a bit undercooked and the rules are vague in a way that’s really frustrating. People really like it on BGG but I don’t get it.

Here's hoping 7th Citadel works through most problems people had with the continent. Was getting ready to buy Continent right when I discovered the Kickstarter for Citadel. Been eagerly waiting ever since.

Yeah. It’s a nice concept, I even think 7th Continent could be nice if they redid the rules. A vague booklet and a half hour long YouTube video is not sufficient, especially since I can’t easily look stuff up in the video. (And let’s be honest I don’t wanna watch YouTube videos when I’m playing a board game either!)

Let’s hope Citadel fixes all that.
