Nothing this week, but last week my wife and I finally finished up a game of Paper Dungeons after having it out on the table for a month and a half, lol. It’s nice that you can drop it and just pick it up again whenever but we took way too long to get back to it.
We still need to play a game with the side quest expansion ruleset and play sheets. I’m hoping it’s even more fun because all the cards look so cool. I like that it also includes cards for things in the base game that previously didn’t have cards, like the artifacts.
I own board games, I don’t play them.
This weekend’s game night was Betrayal at House on the Hill and then Concept afterwards. It was a great time!
Betrayal is my go to
unfortunately none. but back with my pnp rpg group I was almost more excited when enough folks could not make it and we did impromtu boardgame night.
Hadn’t played in months but last night we played Dominant Species and then Puerto Rico.
Was fun to play again. We had been on a years long kick of Terraforming Mars (because I fucking love it) so I said not that one this time.
Had a game afternoon this past weekend. Broke out:
And a couple of simpler games to allow for general socializing and relaxing:
How was Wyrmspan as its own game and compared to Wingspan?
I’ve not played Wingspan, so I can’t really compare the two. On it’s own, I like Wyrmspan. Though, it’s almost like each player is playing their own game and you just compare points at the end to see who did the best. To the point that, during one turn we had two players end up with a few extra actions to complete, and the third player got up from the table and walked off for a bit, without much of a worry that his game would be effected by the other two doing stuff.
Wingspan, it’s fun, there are a lot of different mechanics to figure out
How do your last 3 turns of wingspan play out? For us it usually is every player just gathering eggs because no other action has any impact before the games closes. Feels really bad after the whole game was such wonderful growth
On the last turn I calculate the points for each move… so usually that or caching or producing eggs, depending on where my cards are.
Bought an Exit game and Aeons End Legacy of Gravehold. Played the exit game first day, but we’re going to go through a few sessions of other games we own before we dive into the Legacy game.
Currently in the middle of Intrepid, playing as Canada and Russia.
How do you like Exit games? I’m interested in trying one but concerned about replayability. Do you feel like it’s worth the price despite the fact that you may never play it again?
Got in a game of Great Western Trail NZ. I don’t think we played optimally, very few buildings built and didn’t get far down the ship track, but at least we’ve got the rules down now.
Also a game of Gaia Project with Lost Fleets. Somehow I always end up isolated in one corner of the galaxy…
This is how I learn. Just start playing. Go through the motions, take some turns and see how everything comes together!
