Why it matters
Barbarossa marked a significant milestone for designer Klaus Teuber, as it was the first game to win the prestigious Spiel des Jahres award for his work. By challenging players to sculpt objects out of modeling clay for others to guess, it helped popularize the creative social mechanics that would eventually influence the design philosophy behind his later global success, Catan.
