Of all the streets of the Eixample, Passeig de Gràcia is the most iconic. First, it was just a road connecting Barcelona and the former town of Gràcia, now a major district of Barcelona. It became a promenade where Barcelona’s citizens went to relax, and was filled with restaurants, coffee shops, ballrooms, theaters, parks, and even rollercoasters. Unfortunately, these amenities were only available to the upper and middle classes, as they were often part of private gardens.
When construction of the Eixample started, all of these features were removed to make room for buildings, but it did not diminish Passeig de Gràcia importance. Many rich citizens decided to build their houses there, hiring the most famous modernist architects, who created some of the most iconic landmarks of the city.
Barcelona: Passeig de Gràcia is an expansion for Barcelona and thus you need a copy of the base game to play it. The new elements brought by this expansion are Pedestrians who walk along the Passeig de Gràcia enjoying various amenities there. The more pleasant their walk, the bigger the rewards you gain once they reach their destination.

It’s the late 19th century, and more than 9000 windmills dot the landscape of the Netherlands, some of them purpose-built to dry the lowlands, called polders. In the polders between these windmills are fields filled with colorful tulips—the flower that once was a part of the turbulent history of the first financial bubble but is now simply a quintessential part of the Dutch landscape, especially on the famous Bloemen Route (or “Flower Route”).
In Windmill Valley , a game inspired by the Bloemen Route, you and up to three players take on the role of tulip farmers and entrepreneurs. You will build and enhance your windmills, look for new tulip bulbs in foreign trades or among local vendors to buy and plant, and try to get an edge with hired help and lucrative contracts. Let your blooming fields make your competitors green with envy!
During their turn, players choose the action by rotating the wheels on their windmill board. During the game they can:
Enhance their wheels, by adding enhancements, to build their engine
Plant tulips in their fields, which will score VP at the end of the game
Build windmills on the main board to activate rewards from adjacent fields
Hire helpers that provide bonuses for certain actions
Get contracts for endgame scoring
Visit the local market and conduct a foreign trade
All in all, Windmill Valley is a lightweight game with quick turns, a smart action-selection mechanism, multiple options to build your engine, and a lovely setting.
