After half a dozen club meetings, I’m starting to notice some patterns about how students pick the games they want to play each week. Foremost, if there is something new and shiny, every student will be drawn to it. Last week, that was Jumanji Stampede. Perhaps in my infinite concern about which games the kids may find the most interesting each week on-theme, I overlooked one very simple fact: 7 to 9 year olds just want to have the most fun possible.

In this review of Apiary, I overview the basics of this medium-weight Eurogame and highlight the solo experience against Automa.

Where other expeditions have failed, will you be the one to find glory uncovering the secrets of a curious meteorite in upper Siberia?
