Everdell Pearlbrook vs Everdell Mistwood
Short answer: buy Everdell Pearlbrook first. King Panda ranks it first, but Meeple Mountain found the race for Wonders pulls focus from the base game. Great if you want a new goal; less so if you like the base game as is.
Pick Everdell Mistwood first instead if this sounds more like your table: Top pick if you play solo or with two. Both rankings like it, but it matters less for bigger groups.
