Welcome To... (2018)
(2018)Blue Cocker Games, Deep Water Games
Welcome To... plays like a roll-and-write dice game without dice, where players act as 1950s suburban architects building out housing estates, parks, and pools by flipping cards from piles. Players must cleverly number houses along three streets to create the best planned neighborhoods and score the most points.

The Verdict
based on 22 reviews
“Absolutely. If you have any interest in roll and write games at all, then you should try Welcome To... In my opinion, it's among the best roll and writes board gaming has to offer. With Alexis Solo Mode, I think it's the best roll and write I have had the pleasure to play.”
“For what it aims to do, Welcome To... is a perfect game. It sets up quickly, it plays in under 30 minutes, and the gameplay is simultaneously tense yet relaxing, scratching the same itch that makes crosswords and sudoku puzzles so popular worldwide yet without the same frustrations.”
“Whether I win or lose, Welcome To… makes me feel good and that's really all I want from a board game.”
