Game Overview

Become employee of the month!

Welcome to our unusual post office! Our employees include mermaid-managers and ogre-loaders as well as talking pets that help our postmen. Routine tasks like sorting packages become an exciting game. Stack similar packages next to each other on the shelves, tape them together and complete challenges — the more efficient you are the more Victory Points you get. Earn the most Victory Points to become employee of the month!

1. Move your assistant along the shelves — it will point to the column or row where to place a package.
2. Place a package onto an empty slot of the shelf.
3. Packages make up a shape of the same color? Tape them up! Now they won’t get lost.

One thing’s for sure—our family game nights just got a lot more interesting. Now, if only real post offices were this magical. Who knows, maybe I’ll start expecting my coworkers to be mermaids and talking pets!

There is just the right amount of decision space and crunch to go along with how quick and smooth the gameplay is. It feels satisfying to place the packages in just the right locations and happens quickly enough to keep the game moving. Overall this gets a big thumbs up from me!

I really enjoy Post Office and am hoping for a larger release of the game! I love games that take polyomino tile placement and put a twist on it. <...> Fingers crossed that Post Office seems more attention and production as I think it’s a game people will really like.

We’re hooked on this game! Its playful theme keeps us engaged and entertained every time.

Simple and original mechanics, with enough limitations to create a nice challenge but with a relaxed feel, a pleasant but challenging experience. The assistant system is very interesting, and I love having different ways to score and the decision to make turns simultaneous. A great game in its genre.
Recommended!

We loved the three-dimensional puzzle: you not only have to be careful about the placement of your parcels within the grid, but you should also set up the grounds for the shipping labels, which actually bring the most points in the game. The basic variant is pretty cool, but the objectives are where the real fun is (and they also stimulate your awareness of what the opponents are doing).

Post Office is een toegankelijk spelletje wat vlot wegspeelt. Het thema is geinig verzonnen en het artwork met de bijpassende tekeningetjes en strips is leuk gedaan.

Sin ser especialmente complejo, Post Office es un juego que puede encajar tanto con un público más casual como con los más jugones, pues siempre habrá que tomar ciertas decisiones.

A nivel artístico, Post Office presenta unas ilustraciones muy bonitas y coloridas, y unos componentes de buena calidad en general, aunque la caja podría ser un poco más gruesa.

Tile placement game that has it all: delightful artwork, tetris tokens, placement by coordinates, objectives scoring, puzzle, scoring based on multipliers, a dog, a kitty, a hamster, a pigeon and pleeenty of fun. Post Office feels fresh, and we consider that its mechanics have been smartly mixed in a cocktail shaker.

The two-layered tile placement is actually really intriguing, as you not only have to mind the symbols on the parcels themselves, but also place them in such a way so you can make use of your tape tokens (polyominoes). There are also some challenges available, but we preferred playing without them at first.

It’s interesting to see if the game will still feel fresh after a few plays, but it’s been nice until now.

Post Office is a nice simple puzzle game that forces you to roll with punches a bit as each round you only get to pick out one of the two Package tokens that you get to place. Additionally, the constraints of placement based on your assistant location means that even if you have the perfect piece, you may have to work a bit to get it in that perfect place. As each additional step on the track costs you a victory point, you’ll have to figure out what is the most efficient way of placing your pieces on the board.
