“We enjoyed the theme, and the bright colourful cards, all with unique art, look fantastic on the table. It may seem overwhelming at first, but you very quickly learn what you’re looking for. Extremely enjoyable at all player counts.”

"If you're into strategic Euros with a twist, Beasts and Diplomacy is a real hidden gem. Combining drafting with non-confrontational competition is both unusual and fresh. It will reel you in after your very first game." - Teilzeithelden

Another preview, this one is by Dicing with Death from UK:

“This is a much more layered game than comparable drafting games. There's a lot more to think about. Every time you play it you learn things that you can apply the next time you play it.”
Well worth watching:
