Table Talk Reviews Coast Guard ships explore the North Sea in the cooperative tile-placement board game, Beacon Patrol. Tiles are valued based on their depicted features (e.g. lighthouses or buoys) and will only score if surrounded by other tiles. Move your ship into position, place tiles, and work together to get the best score possible.

My Thoughts
Being light on rules and cooperative make this a very welcoming board game. Great option to close out a game night when you want to squeeze another quick game in. Mechanic requiring a boat to move onto a placed tile creates a more challenging puzzle.
The minimalist art style is pleasant and creates a nice map on your table.
This is my style of solo game with quick setup for when I want to do some casual puzzle solving.
Just an overall relaxing game to play.
