    Land of Hop and Glory

    Hallertau won the Solitaire Times 2020 Best Game Award, so it was high time I checked it out. And I did. I played it fifteen times in the last five days. I consider that a lot, for an hour long game with challenges and dilemmas that will take up all your attention. But as soon as I was finished, I would set it up again.
