Believe it or not, I’m working from a (shrinking) list of interesting titles. That list gets a tad smaller today with the arrival of Menara. I’m not sure it’ll unseat Men At Work as my preferred dexterity game, but having a co-op dexterity game will certainly pay dividends in certain situations (like when my kids get a bit older?) And co-op dexterity games are quite rare.
I also think I managed to forget to mention that I had picked up the other two boxes of For What Remains: For What Remains: Blood on the Rails and For What Remains: Out of the Basement. I also picked up the new expansion for 51st State: 51st State - Moloch and I rebought Innovation because I realized that I had a mix of 1st edition and 3rd edition products
Well, for my birthday back in July, my in-laws and my wife got me some gift cards for our FLGS. Today, I spent them and got Brass: Birmingham, Cairn and The Fuzzies, thereby roughly doubling our “to-play” pile.
Look what just arrived and looks awfully pretty
Same color scheme as my bicycle White and pink!
My partner came in and went “Ohohoh it looks just like Borderlands! Great! When can we play?”
Hope you and your group enjoy it, Roger! I also have Last Night on Earth and Fortune and Glory but have still never listened to any of the CD soundtracks included with them.
Well yeah there is the standard consideration of whether I actually still have a CD drive. I do, though not a CD player except in the car and I don’t use that.
Immediate reaction: nothing special. Mostly instrumental, which is what I want from a game soundtrack.
Delayed for several months–I expected this in June at the latest after it said April just a couple weeks before I pre-ordered–these two games were still early:
Notification from the shop said they were mailing ist yesterday, dhl said it was arriving on monday, yet here I am staring at two boxes I cannot do more than look at because we have plans tonight that do include seeing friends but not for gaming But there is a week-end ahead
My FLGS brought in the Dicey Waters expansion for Fleet The Dice Game, so I promptly ran down to pick it up. At $7.50 it’s a trifle, but with the main box costing $45, I think E-G would up the value proposition tremendously by including this little module in every copy. This is too good a game to be held back by their luxury tax.
Anyway, here I am whining about something I just ran out and excitedly paid for, but I’ve put just under $60 CAD into this little box and it’s hard not to feel a bit foolish about it.
This is actually my initial foray into the game. Cobble & Fog was the most thematically appealing of the larger boxes (and seems well-regarded), and I just couldn’t resist adding Bruce Lee into the mix while I was at it.
White and pink!
But there is a week-end ahead
