A Feast for Odin

Action-board monster, Tetris-y plunder

BGG: boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/177736

A Feast for Odin is a heavy game (weight 9/10). The decision tree is among the deepest in the hobby (10/10), with meaningful long-term planning every turn. Decisions come at a steady pace (6/10) — engaged without being exhausting. There's meaningful but indirect interaction (interaction 5/10) — shared resources, catch-up effects, or watch-and-react moments. Direct attacks are minimal (2/10) — the friction comes from contention, not aggression.
