  1. 6.5 out of 10

    It is a kind of gateway game for worker placement mechanism. Nothing innovative, a mixture of working placement and resource collection to make orders. Pretty simple and plain, but it looks quite nice and can be used easily with family.

  2. 6 out of 10

    This family game is fun with the children but a bit short in my opinion : not enough time to recover from a good starter.

  3. 5 out of 10

    Painfully "gateway". There's a couple neat things with the warehouses storing goods, and the decision to cover up spaces to upgrade and/or change them - but it really didn't try to do anything other than be an extremely basic worker placement game. Place a worker, get goods, buy generic buildings that are worth VP. Meh.

In The River, you and the other mayoral players each struggle to create the best pioneer settlement by developing land along a river bed in your town, collecting resources from the area, and constructing buildings. As you explore and build up the untouched frontier, your workers will settle down along the way, meaning that your other workers will shoulder more of the burden to do what you want to do, which includes making nicely organized landscapes to please the aestheticians in town.

Every decision counts in this fast and streamlined tile-placement game, and in the end the player with the most impressive settlement will win!
