Hallertau is a medium-heavy game (weight 6/10). It offers a substantial decision tree (8/10) — enough to reward repeated study. Decisions come at a steady pace (6/10) — engaged without being exhausting. Interaction is light (3/10); it leans toward parallel play. Direct attacks are minimal (1/10) — the friction comes from contention, not aggression.
Of every game in our catalog, Hallertau is closest to Fields of Arle (92% profile match) but scores lower on weight (6 vs. 7).
Every score is on a 0–10 scale. The rubric and methodology behind these numbers is documented in the README.

Variance is moderate (input 4, output 1/10). Catch-up is moderate (4/10).
The theme is well-integrated (7/10). The engine-building arc is strong (engine 8/10) — early-game investments pay off in explosive late-game turns.
