As per title. I personally really enjoy deckbuilding / engine builders and civilisation games, but most of them understandably end just as you’re hitting the sweet spot of getting your engine up and running. Probably why Through the Ages is my favorite game - has all the mechanics I like, but lasts long enough that I feel like I get a chance to run them.
I guess there’s never been a better time for you to be a boardgamer, given the proliferation of deluxe production games :)
And I agree, it’s so nice to be able to pick up and move around something that’s not just cardboard chips!
