Sweet Lands

A three-hour candy-kingdom Euro with hexes, tracks and hard choices.

Sweet Lands is a heavyweight Euro dressed as a candy kingdom, where you lay hex tiles to grow your own city of confections and push several prosperity tracks over five decisive rounds.

Who it's for

Heavy Euro players who want a long, crunchy optimization puzzle in an unusually cheerful wrapper.

Not for you if…

Your group taps out after ninety minutes or dislikes thick rulebooks – this one asks for three hours and full attention.

Vibe's take

Dense and demanding – the sweet artwork hides a genuinely heavy engine where five rounds never stretch far enough for everything you planned.
