This week we are joined by Tamsyn to discuss Stamp Swap from Stonemaier Games. This is a tile placement game with a unique mechanism of "I cut, you choose" meaning you take all of the tiles you collected, and before you place them on the board, you separate them into two separate piles. You take a pile from another player and they will take one of yours and those are the tiles you get to play onto your mat! It is a unique mechanism but is it enough to justify another tile placement game in your library? Listen to find out!
