Board Games Mar 24: A low game playing week. We spent much of the week catching up on TV from while I was away at Unpub. But Friday night we did play Joan of Arc, the new Orleans roll and write game. I saw this at my FLGS and was really intrigued by it. It …
Board Games March 12: I got started that day with a solo game of Three Sisters. I’ve found I enjoy a Sunday morning solo game while everyone is kind of waking up and my kid is watching TV. Three Sisters is one that I’ve been Ok with the solo. It’s not my favorite, and someone …
Board Games Mar 6: I was home sick on Monday and to get my mind active I set up a solo game of Verdant. I’d only played this solo online once so I had to read the set up rules. I did pretty good. I had some good combos, and only had two plants without …
Board Games Feb 26: Last Sunday I played two solo games of Keystone: North America. I was on scenario 2 and had failed at it twice before. This time I failed once, but finally got it on the second game. Admittedly it had been a bit since I played it and partially forgot how scoring …
Board Games Feb 20: For our usual game night we had 6 for once and so that limited our choices. We decided on Love Letter (2019) as we’ve played it before and could just get going and have conversation while playing. It was good. We had a few exciting rounds and a few interesting eliminations. …
Board Games I finished my judging for the Cardboard Edison Award. Out of the 15 games I judged, there were 6 I would like to see go through to round 2 (which is 5 more than I had last year) and I think 3 of them have a real chance at it. I excitedly await …
Board Gaming Feb 5: I played a solo game of Hadrian’s Wall and as usual, my scores for this game are good, bad, good, bad, repeat and this time it was on the down swing. I went for new strategy and I’m not sure it paid off as well as it should. I chose a …
Board Games Jan 30 – SCOUT: I imported the card game that would become Dealt! here in the US because the presmise was interesting to me. It’s a semi-trick taking/ladder game where you get a set of cards with numbers and you can’t rearrange them. Then you try and play sets or pairs, etc from …
Board Games Played Going into typing this, it felt like a pretty small list this week, but looking back at it I had 5 plays. It was just three of them were solo. Jan 22 – Skulls of Sedlec: I played with the Merchants expansion doing it solo. I really like this game. It was …
Board Games Played This was a pretty slim week. Different events led to us only playing two games this week. I think we started the month of challenge focused that now that we’re wrapping this month up for things that work we’ve been “saving” games for next month. I have plans to play some games …
