What's funny is I own this game already and it's in my top three yet the strategy is so deep I hadn't even considered this until now! Now that you mention it though it is light and takes up little space, the actions are practically displayed on the tiles, and despite not having perfect information you'd have enough information to deduce what the best move would be while still having enough randomness that an inexperienced player has the ability to make a "comeback". This game just keeps getting better lol

Ideally it wouldn't require a large playing area, but I am open to all options as long as it's portable.

Also, you have reminded me of Onitama which somehow didn't come to mind while thinking of games to match my description. It seems to be the perfect game in terms of strategic content, since the randomization provides minimal edge to an experienced player but it maintains all the strategy and perfect information.

Fox in the Forest is definitely a good option, and I'm interested in Arboretum but from what I've gathered it can be a lot to take in at first. I have yet to play it but from videos it seems like the rules are quite simple but the scoring (which is what you play to optimize) can be a bit to wrap your head around. It's been a while so I might be misremembering, do you think it would be easy enough to explain quickly?

Ninjan looks really neat! After reading through replies I'm starting to consider having maybe a few games I rotate out, some more strategic and others simpler more social games. Ninjan is definitely getting added to that list.

Oh this is cool! I've been familiar with Oink! games as tiny portable packages but Pack O Game has managed to escape me until now, thanks for the recommendation!

This actually looks incredible I'm not sure how I've skipped out on this game for so long. It seems perfect for what I'm going for. Thank you!

This looks beautiful and seeing as there are additional films this is looking like it's meant for me LOL

This sounds like exactly what I'm looking for! Beautiful illustration from what I've seen.

"The System" looks really interesting I'll definitely be checking that out. Thank you!

This looks incredible thank you.

Yes the test points are directly connected. This seems like the answer I was looking for, so I’ll shop around and try and get that to work. Thank you so much!

There have been many protests even before the stock market issues. Even before Trump was elected there were protests across the nation at college campuses representing Palestinians. Even my very politically inactive university had enough students feel strongly enough to protest. Just because you’re not seeing them, or looking for them, doesn’t mean protests weren’t happening.

Ahhh I see this is a distinction I wasn’t aware of. I just remembered reading one of the publications saying he was a citizen, but it seems you’re correct.
