{"product_id":"threaded-a-game-of-needles-and-points","title":"Threaded: A Game of Needles and Points","description":"\u003cp\u003eThreaded: A Game of Needles and Points is a strategic board game about textile crafts, color choices, and creative planning, where players manage their own embroidery studios specializing in bargello tapestries. Through worker placement, set collection, and clever resource management, you try to create the most impressive patterns and build a reputation as the region's foremost needle artist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe game revolves around the hunt for the right threads, the right tools, and the right assignments. Each round, players send their assistants to various shops and markets to gather materials, buy equipment, and fulfill customer orders. There are always small decisions to weigh against each other—should you wait for the exact right color combination, or improvise with what's available before someone else snatches the assignment you want?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes Threaded particularly charming is how the theme genuinely permeates the game experience. The color shifts and geometric patterns of bargello embroidery feel present both visually and mechanically, and the game manages to be tactical without becoming cumbersome. There's a calm and creative feeling around the table, but also enough competition for every choice to matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite its craft theme, this is not a quiet family game where everyone just builds in peace. Timing, planning, and the ability to read opponents' needs become important when resources start to run out and the best contracts disappear. At the same time, the rules are relatively accessible, making the game a good step for players who want to explore modern strategy games without jumping directly into the heaviest titles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThreaded is particularly well-suited for game nights where you want a thoughtful yet relaxed strategy game with an unusual theme and strong visual identity. A perfect choice for players who appreciate worker placement games with a bit more personality and a handcrafted feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQuick Facts\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of players: 2–5 players\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePlaying time: approx. 30–45 minutes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended age: 14+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eType of game: board game, strategy game, worker placement, family game\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eMechanisms: worker placement, set collection, contracts, resource management\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eTheme: embroidery, bargello, textile crafts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eReplayability: high, thanks to varying contracts and resource flows\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"dragonslair-se","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58081656602972,"sku":"166463","price":499.0,"currency_code":"SEK","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1015\/8315\/9644\/files\/pic9160491.webp?v=1781533548","url":"https:\/\/dragonslair.se\/en\/products\/threaded-a-game-of-needles-and-points","provider":"Dragon's Lair","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
