It's a Wonderful Kingdom is a standalone solo or 2-player game set in a Low-Fantasy universe. Inspired by the core mechanics of its predecessor "It's a Wonderful World", this new game offers more interaction, a bluffing mechanic and new challenges. The game is played using modules, each different and with mechanical twists. Each game, players choose one of several modules to compete against each other. The game is divided into 4 rounds. Each round has 3 phases. 1 / Split and fall Players take turns placing their cards in two piles in the center of the table. A player takes 2 cards from his hand and places them on the same pile or divides them between the two piles. The other player chooses a pile. This step is repeated alternately until the players have placed all the cards from their hands. Furthermore, each player has 2 traps that can be used to place face-down cards. 2 / Plans Each player chooses, from the cards he has collected, which ones to build and which to recycle to speed up development. 3 / Sequential production Each player produces the resources of his Kingdom in a sequential manner. Because the resources are produced in a certain order, it is necessary to anticipate the sequences to optimize production and development. At the end of the 4th round, the player with the most victory points wins the game. The Games Friends: It's a Wonderful Kingdom is, in our opinion, even more fun than It's a Wonderful World. The new mechanism for selecting cards works smoothly and is a bit more tactical and the modules are also a nice addition. Just a very good 2-player game!

One player (playing the role of child) must recreate the scene depicted on a memory card for another player whose eyes are closed (playing the role of 'grandfather'). This only happens by placing objects in his/her hand. The other players only see the mime (the gesture imitation) and must add additional memory cards that appear to correspond to the mime. Grandpa opens his eyes and has to find the right memories among all the cards on the table. The Games Friends: " In the Palm of your Hand is a game with well-known mechanisms, but with a surprising twist. Because you are only allowed to play it on the hand of your fellow player, you have to look at the cards very differently. Very cool done! "
