    Ark Nova, a Feast for Odin, and Barrage. All are more complex games but each one has meaty choices, tons of decision space and variability, and are just pure fun the whole time.

      Haven’t heard of Barrage before and it looks fantastic(and high scoring on BGG, 8.2). From the same designer as Barrage(Simone Luciani) are Newton and Lorenzo il Magnifico which I admire. His Grand Austria Hotel I find to also have an excellent and challenging decision space, which is always enjoyable to work through, even though I am really bad at winning in GAH.

      I’ve been looking out for a year to play Ark Nova or Feast for Odin at our local game club meetups, both have appealing themes and reportedly solid gameplay.

        Barrage is really fun and really intense. Tons of interaction out in the mountains, trying to get your network out before others. I am terrible at it but still enjoy it every time. Ark Nova and Feat for Odin are my top 2 favorite games right now. Just pure joy to play them every time.
