葉集

The leaf-tile artwork is so vivid that even my non-gamer friends stop to admire the table mid-game, and the album assembly mechanic makes every turn feel like a tiny, satisfying puzzle. I’ve already played three rounds in one sitting, and the way the halves click together still hasn’t gotten old.

The concept is charming, but the leaf tiles are a bit flimsy and tend to slide around on the table. It's fun to match the halves, though I wish the album pages had a better mechanism to hold them in place.
