"Fast-paced and quick game"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Unlike many games available, 7 Wonders is quick and is playable within 20 mins. You are also impacted by the person on either side of you, but less (if at all) impacted by the person opposite you, so a great game if you have 4+ people to play.

Ample ways to win, so tactics can vary.

Reccommended if you have a small amount of time to fill in between other games!

"Deceptively simple"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This game has a deceptively simple gameplay that allows for some complex strategies (even more complex with the expansion). The best thing about it is that it takes 30 minutes or so to play, meaning you can often use it to fill in time between other activities easily. I've written a full review of it in my blog (and it's expansion) here: http://wp.me/pXLGE-1V

"Wonderful Game"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This game is easy to pick up; taught 6 others to play for the first time last week and had very little problems. The first game might take a little longer than the 30 minutes to play; the short game time means we can play it while waiting for others to show up for the longer games.

"WONDERful game"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

My friends and I really enjoyed this game. You know you can get better scores so you want to keep playing. The scoring seems to take longer than actual playing but it's part of the fun!

"Great game"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I've played this game a lot since I bought it. So strategic, and I normally can't tell who is winning until the scores are tallied as it really comes down to the wire.

"Great family game for older children and teens up"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Enjoyed this, took a while to learn but rules were clearly explained with a handy summary guide too. Improves with a few plays to warm up.

"Too simple."
3 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

The game feels like solitaire. The interaction between players is minimal. And the victory condition is merely your a score rather than something more fun; say an military, economic or scientific victory.

"Great game! Set time of 30 mins with all players constantly busy"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

7 Wonders is a game I would recommend for people who are starting to build a board game collection. It has simple mechanics that are easy to learn, but that are different from ‘classic’ games. The set time of 30 mins is a bonus feature

"Awesome"

"Fun!"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Seems good and the kids love it but I find it too limited. And repetitive.

"New game every game"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

The game evolves from simple theory to a great variety of strategies, each wonder provides a whole new way of conquering competitors, each and every game comes with multiple surprises! It will replace my computer games for months to come.

"Quick and Awesome Strategy Game"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Very well balanced and fun game. My 10-year old son picked it up in no time and we can get through a game in about 20-minutes. Well recommended.

"A brilliant game of tactics and strategy which only takes 30 min"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

We are thrilled to have found this game. It only takes 30 minutes and the whole family loves it (including our seven-year old), while it's advertised as for age 13+. It's about building one of the Seven Wonders – gathering resources, earning battle points, trading and victories. I can't recommend it highly enough!
