The Verdict
based on 9 reviews
“Sprocketforge's gears wound their way into my heart, and their toy factor will do the same to you if you give them a chance.”
“So, yeah, that's my initial impression of Sprocket Forge. Super high. Uh this is a game that I really want to get played again. I really want to show other people, which is surprising because again, I'm not generally super into recipe fulfillment”(11:54)
“Overall, Sprocket Forge is an excellent game. It does a wonderful job and it does exactly what it's trying to do. If you're looking for a game that is an engine builder that has a kind of unique tactile feel, then this is definitely one I highly suggest.”(18:42)
“I liked it the first time. I liked it with the base rules, but I liked it more with the advanced rules. Um, it added just a little bit more meat, which is make gave it a little bit more tension, which is what I appreciate.”(19:32)
“Overall, Sprocketforge is a genuinely fun puzzle of a board game with satisfying mechanics. The gameplay is easy to learn, with the challenge for players being to look at what options are available to them each turn, and make choices appropriately.”
“Sprocketforge is a cog-nitve and tactile delight, but just like real factory work, it is not one for anyone looking for a relaxing time.”
“The game accomplishes what many games do not, which is creating a good clean system that is satisfying to operate, reasonably competitive, and evocative of running some kind of steam powered monstrosity. Sprocketforge is a dorky good time, I recommend.”
“This is a clever little game, it looks very cool.”(8:27)
“I like the concept of Sprocket Forge. I think that the the way that this is put together is it especially with these upgrade components is really really nice. I will say that the board itself the game itself, even with all this nicety out there, is a little dull looking”(1:36)
