Anything from Leader Games and illustrated by Kyle Ferrin (Root, Oath, Fort…) feels like cheating but still, I absolutely adore their art style
Everdell, Photosynthesis, Parks, look nice as well
I also bought an updated edition of Costa Tuna just because of the illustrations: https://www.pamwishbow.com/client-work/project-four-yjynj-pafyx
Great question!
I really like when the games art immediately pulls players in. Everyone wants to play Flamecraft because the art work is so damn cute. Players are already engaged with the.gsme, before it even started.
Everdell is great too!
I never heard of Flamecraft! It looks super cute 🥰
