“A particularly good solo rendition of a very challenging, yet enjoyable, multiplayer worker placement, resource management and hand management style of game... So many tactical decisions have to be made. It's immensely satisfying!” - Both Sides of My Table

“It's like tag chasing on steroids, with mechanisms that you're familiar with, like Worker Placement and Tableau Building, but tweaked enough so that it really makes it interesting.” -- BG Rundown

“We enjoyed the theme, and the bright colourful cards, all with unique art, look fantastic on the table. It may seem overwhelming at first, but you very quickly learn what you’re looking for. Extremely enjoyable at all player counts.”

“If you like crunchy games and you can connect all of the dots, this will be right up your alley. It's not for the faint of heart.” -- Boardgame Gumbo

Now in @kickstarter.com !
"If you're into strategic Euros with a twist, Beasts and Diplomacy is a real hidden gem. Combining drafting with non-confrontational competition is both unusual and fresh. It will reel you in after your very first game." - Teilzeithelden

Another preview, this one is by Dicing with Death from UK:
“This is a much more layered game than comparable drafting games. There's a lot more to think about. Every time you play it you learn things that you can apply the next time you play it.”
Well worth watching:

"BaD is like an endurance race - it starts off at a casual pace, but then shifts into overdrive, and by the end, you'll be frantically fighting for the lead just in time for the finish line. It's a clever, tense, and intricate experience." -- Watch it by yourself:
