GREAT WESTERN TRAIL (Stronghold Games/eggertspiele, 2 to 4 players, ages 12 and up, 75-150 minutes; $69.95)
Great Western Trail is the latest game from Alexander Pfister, designer of the 2015 Spiel des Jarhres winner, Isle of Skye, (featured in the Fall 2015 Gamers Alliance Report) and the very popular Mombasa (Winter 2016 GAR) and Broom Service (Spring 2016 GAR). With this kind of resume, most gaming enthusiasts had their eye on Great Western Trail long before it released – and in this reviewer’s opinion, it did not disappoint!
