Kawa Review - Tiny Flow Management Board Game!
99Named after the word for "river" in Japanese, Kawa is a pocket sized board game all about flow and tranquility, as you quietly contemplate how you flow down a lively river localized entirely atop your tabletop and made out of cardboard tiles. Kawa has you sending flowers down this river in an attempt to contact other players' petal tokens to score points. However, the river ebbs and flows, as it will change frequently, just as your strategy should... or you can just chill and vibe with the river for your game night.
Kawa's components are all mostly square shaped to fit inside the box, ranging from the tiles that build the river to the rulebooks that fold into themselves, though the tokens are still circles though, with pretty flower petals on them. Turn after turn, and round after round, the river mechanics moves along as players adapt and strategize how they want to play it out, just like how this review will flow from pros to cons to score.
