AEG & Flatout Games | Cascadia - Award-Winning Board Game Set in the Pacific Northwest | Easy to Learn | Quick to Play | Ages 10+

One of our favorite games! I like that this game involves strategy while also being simple and relatively quick. We like this game for playing after the kids go to bed. This one is nice because while you do have to think through your moves, it’s easy enough to just try you best and still have fun. We could also see this as a great choice for our kids as they get older-great homeschool opportunity! Lots of rule options to make the game different. Overall a beautiful and great game!

I bought this game for my family for Christmas and we have played it about a dozen times so far! We play a lot of board games in my family and this game feels like a mixture of Carcassonne, Wingspan, and Azul. In the game you select pairs of habitat tiles and animal tokens. Your objective is to play these to make a continuous environment and place in whatever way maximizes your score. You score is based on the size of each of the five biomes (mountains, river, forest, marsh, and plains) and you score your wildlife based on their configuration compared to the five wildlife cards you draw at the start of the game. Overall, this game is very fun and has surprisingly deep strategy. I would not call it educational (especially when compared to a game like Wingspan), but it does make one appreciate nature more. Games tend to run anywhere from twenty to forty minutes, and there is excellent replay value. Aesthetically, the game is quite good looking. The different habitats result in a colorful board and the arrangement of wildlife tokens adds to this color. In terms of learning, the game is surprisingly simple. I would say that it is no more difficult to learn than a game like Carcassonne. Overall, this is a great entry level board game which most people can enjoy.

If you enjoy Wingspan, you’ll want to pick up Cascadia. Simple, quick, and fun. Unlike Wingspan, it’s really easy to pick up & learn, or teach to a willing learner. A 3 min YouTube video was all we needed, and the occasional reference to the instruction booklet they provide. My wife & I primarily play 2 player matches and our games last 45-70 mins (we’re on the slower side). For 4 player games, we implement a 2 min timer for each turn to keep it moving.

Fun easy to play and remarkably deep strategy game. I'm a fan of the art and the complexity of the gameplay, games are easy to set and it can be play by all age groups, from pre teenagers to adults.

I bought this thinking it would feel like Harmonies, as it has a similar “build habitats, place animals” vibe, but it’s refreshingly unique. The artwork is gorgeous, and the pieces are satisfying to handle. The various scoring cards add layers of strategy and replayability, and it’s a joy for two-player sessions. Everything arrived intact, with high-quality tiles and tokens that feel premium.

Cascadia is a wonderful, relaxing tile-placement game that's perfect for a chill game night or even playing solo. It's incredibly easy to learn-you choose a habitat tile and a wildlife token, then place them to build your ecosystem. The components are gorgeous, and the puzzle of maximizing your scores for each animal is genuinely engaging without being stressful. If you enjoy soothing yet strategic games, this is a must-buy for your collection. It's a modern classic already!

This game was fun at first, but it's not one of my favorites. It is a good repeat game though due to the variety of the cards so the game is different every time.

Cascadia has quickly become a staple of our game nights, with multiple plays in a single session! The quality is excellent, featuring beautifully illustrated habitat tiles and wildlife tokens that make every game visually stunning. The components feel premium, ensuring long-lasting durability. The game is easy to learn, with simple mechanics that allow players to jump in quickly. Despite its accessibility, it offers deep strategy, requiring thoughtful placement and planning to maximize points. The pace is fast, keeping everyone engaged without long downtimes. For the price, it’s a great value, delivering high replayability with different scoring objectives each time. Whether playing casually or competitively, it’s always exciting to build ecosystems and optimize wildlife patterns. If you want a beautifully designed strategy game, this one is a fantastic choice! Highly recommended for families and board game enthusiasts!

Cascadia is a very good board game. I play it with my sons (ages 14 and 6), and all of us enjoy it a lot. I like that there are no dice — everything depends on your choices and decisions, which makes you really think. For my 6-year-old, it was especially fun to see the immediate results: when you place an animal, you instantly see how many points you score. The game components are excellent: high quality, pleasant to the touch, and beautifully illustrated. I would recommend Cascadia especially for players who already have some experience with board games, since you need to understand the rules and mechanics to fully enjoy it.

I bought this for my mum, and it is now one of her favourite games. It is easy to set up and play, with added challenges due to the different animal goal cards. The game is fairly simple to understand, too. However, personally, I find it to be relatively expensive for what it is, so I would recommend waiting for a discount.
