yeah i read about that, and my misgivings with queen games aside, i'm intrigued
interestingly my excitement and worry for each game is the complete reverse:
macao has god-awful graphic design and a truly nonexistent theme, so a visual redesign is super compelling and welcome, but man i am going to scrutinize every gameplay change because the original is a masterpiece
bruges on the other hand is a really neat game but i think could take a step up with some reworkings - the card draws in particular can be painfully random at times and the game can feel a little too "hope and pray" kind of tactical, but i really liked the art and theme of the original, the canal-building and buildings are specific to the city, and the 165 (!) unique pieces of character art were absolutely joyful. the retheme should be fine, but it already seems a lot less compelling
it's an underwater adventure ride
