Description
You have been thrust into the world of airline booking, and tasked with managing competing airlines. You have to satisfy each passenger's different needs to score prestige for your airline. Book too few passengers, and you may not be able to fill your flight. Book too many, however, and some passengers will obviously be really unhappy.
In a turn, you pick a passenger card with the orientation, quantity and type (colour) of passengers depicted on the card. You, then, seat the passengers onto the plane according to the passenger card. When any type of passenger runs out, the end game is triggered and points are counted and scored.
Can you be the one who satisfies the most passengers and be the most prestigious airline?

Quotes (from this video)
- This is where I take a look at the last five new to me board games that I've played and I rank and review them in order of preference.
- It's just one that's not really for me because it's just too straightforward.
- But, you know, I like it. It does what it, you know, it does what it's supposed to do.
- So, yeah, I like games of this nature.
- I was really impressed with how clean this game is.
- And I just generally like the the overall feel of the chaotic nature of this game because it does really pack in to that car park and you can't really have much maneuverability as the game goes on.
- I would say give a give overparked a look because I think this one might be one of the best ones I've ever played.

Quotes (from this video)
- It's a puzzly game about parking cars.
- this is a really satisfying puzzle for me.
- Um and it's very simple to teach, very simple to learn, very simple to play, not simple to play well.
- I think the production is outstanding.
- So, uh, with all that being said, uh, really nothing but positives for Over Park, so I'm giving it an 8.5 out of 10.
- An outstanding puzzle game, really nice production, um, and and if you like these types of puzzle games, then I think that this is one of the best in this category of kind of filling out using kind of polyomino, not really, but I guess kind of, uh, type shapes to fill out a board.
