So almost perfect
I like Azul. It is abstract and friends and family typically enjoy it. It has no words, so I can play it with younger family too. It therefore gets top marks for approachability. It is a good game.
It is tactile. The tiles are nice and so is the bag. However, I find the scoring track annoying. Almost every time at least one person jostles their board and the tracker moves. Therefore, if you need your scoring to be perfect perhaps try mini Azul which uses a point slider instead.
