In this video, we review Cascadero, a strategic tile placement board game from legendary designer Reiner Knizia.
Published by Bitewing Games, Cascadero sees players placing envoys, connecting towns, triggering bonuses, and trying to build the most efficient network across the board. But is this another clean, clever Knizia classic — or just a dry puzzle dressed up in fancy Ian O’Toole artwork?
We take a look at the gameplay, strategy, player interaction, production quality, replayability, and whether Cascadero deserves a place on your shelf.
If you enjoy Reiner Knizia board games, clever abstract strategy games, tile laying, network building, and tense Euro-style decisions, this Cascadero review should help you decide whether it’s worth picking up.
