S3E13 - Black Forest

This week on Current Plays, Jordan and Thomas venture into the Black Forest. Uwe Rosenberg’s 2024 update to Glass Road is a blend of brain-burning euro strategy and pastoral charm. True to form, it’s a game of careful timing, clever planning, and that signature Rosenberg tension that keeps every move deliciously tight. The hosts dig into what makes Black Forest stand out: those brilliant resource wheels that spin the entire game into motion, the razor-sharp action economy, and the satisfying balance between personal engine-building and interactive play. Once again, the match came down to a perfect tie; proof that in the Black Forest, efficiency is everything and every move counts. It’s classic Uwe: serene on the surface, savage underneath, and oh so satisfying to play.
