Le Havre Board Game Review

Manage a harbor, build ships and construct buildings in your bid to become the merchant with the most power and the largest fortune in Le Havre, the construction and economic strategy board game. Take control of resources, process them, sell them, and turn them into food to feed your hungry workers. Construct or buy up buildings like the bank and the art center, or ships like the luxury liner to prove that you are the master of Le Havre!
Le Havre is a construction strategy game with an economic theme designed by Uwe Rosenberg, the designer of other hit board games such as Agricola and At the Gates of Loyang. The game concepts are similar to Agricola, with the focus on obtaining and processing resources in order to feed your workers and construct buildings. The goal is also similar, that is to become the player with the strongest economic presence.
The setting of Le Havre is the port city of the same name located at the mouth of the river Seine on the northern coast of France, set during the Industrial Age. Your objective is to become the richest merchant in the city, and you do that by ending the game with the most cash. This can be obtained via a number of strategies, either by collecting and processing resources, shipping them off, building a merchant or luxury fleet, controlling local businesses, or any other strategy in between!
