We played a couple games of Caylus 1303. In the first game I went all in on bundling and milking point generation tiles and managed to win without building any residences or monuments. In the second one my partner stole it by grabbing the 20 point monument last turn.
It's really cool that despite being one of the earliest worker placement games Caylus has held up so well. Still feels quite unique.
On BGA I've been enjoying Knarr a lot. Simple rules but crunchy decisions. I love the way you can destroy part of your engine but get permanent upgrades or points.
Did you play Caylus with only two? How well does it play as a duel game?
Yes, we play at 2 and I like it a lot at this count. The main thing you miss out on is negotiating about moving the Provost but on the plus side you can keep a closer eye on your opponent's strategy and you can plan ahead more since things are a less chaotic.
