A puzzle game where you place various landscape tiles on the board to create waterways, forests, towns, railways, and farmlands. The gameplay is easy to pick up, but you also have various challenges (add 10 buildings to a town, create a 24-track railway, etc.) which add more tiles to your stack and unlock new cosmetic items. New game options (some I haven't played yet) let you play a quick game or a longer-term game (that you can save to continue later); there is also a creative mode. There are no time limits, which makes this quite a relaxing game. The artwork is simple but not simplistic - there are trains running on the tracks, deer wandering the landscape, boats on the lakes, etc. And there are different seasonal tile sets, so you can see a snow-covered winter landscape or a green summer. The static screenshots don't do the game justice. When you complete a game, you can have some really nice animated landscapes. Overall, Dorfromantik is an excellent game, and would make a great gift for any age.
