If you’re looking for a fresh and fun twist on worker placement games, Meeple Vacation: Waterpark might be one to watch—especially with its upcoming crowdfunding campaign.
In this preview, Will and Sara take a look at this creative new game where your “workers” aren’t workers at all—they’re vacationers enjoying a day at the waterpark! From riding slides and floating down lazy rivers to competing for the best attractions, every move feels thematic, interactive, and full of personality.
Designed by Dino de Blasio, Meeple Vacation: Waterpark blends strategic placement, clever timing, and a bit of luck with a vibrant, playful theme that really stands out on the table.
If you enjoy worker placement games with high interaction, flexible strategies, and fun table presence, this is definitely one to keep on your radar.
