Eurogames

Eurogames, also known as German-style board games, are a genre of tabletop games characterized by strategy, resource management, and limited player conflict. They often feature indirect competition, where players aim to achieve objectives and earn points rather than eliminate opponents. Eurogames typically have elegant mechanics, complex decision-making, and appealing designs, but they usually lack heavy themes or luck elements. Popular examples include "Settlers of Catan" and "Carcassonne." These games emphasize player interaction and strategic thinking, making them accessible and enjoyable for a wide audience, often fostering social engagement while remaining competitive.
