Last game you bought?

Thank you so much

The best thing about buying out-of-print or hard-to-find games is that, most of the time, you’ll discover that you don’t actually like it, and it just piqued your interest because you were told that you couldn’t have it; a.k.a. forbidden fruit effect

A friend heard that I prefer Tales of the Arabian Nights and offered me to piggyback on his pledge. I accepted the offer.

So, a friend of mine is trying to cull some games. I was happy to help…
Sol: Last Days of a Star
Bear Raid
The Climbers
Pandemic Legacy Season 0

The same friend also went to Spain recently and picked us both up a copy of Fresh Fish.

My Polish copy of Santiago arrived today as well.

As of yesterday, my shelves are full.

Earthborne Rangers second edition arrived last night.

My mother-in-law texted a picture this morning of a bunch of games at a yard sale and I asked her to grab Taverns of Tiefenthal from the pile. Hopefully it’s complete and in ok condition.

I forgot to mention it here, because it was in a bit of a haze on the last day of Expo: Kabuto Sumo Sakura Slam. plus Swarm and the Dr Bibble and Bluegrass Bill promos. It’s been a busy few weeks and it’s about to be more, so these probably won’t get played until Stabcon.

got the delivery of moon colony bloodbath and as I was in the shop noticed they had Nusfjord big box so I got that. I’ve been exploring Rosenberg a bit recently because I want to play Agricola (and see if the SE is something I want to get into) but my feelings are I needed to try something a little less intense before I can commit to the big boy.

Mind you don’t end up on an endless search for that perfect big Uwe game you’re sure must exist!

I thought Agricola was the perfect big Uwe for me, got most of the expansions and everything, then realised I didn’t actually like it all that much and so sold it on. Then Feast for Odin seemed the perfect big Uwe for me, until I realised I didn’t actually like it all that much and so sold it on.

I suspect I’ve had the perfect big Uwes for me all along in Nusfjord (well, big-ish) and Fields of Arle. Although I seem to have picked up Hallertau and Ora et Labora along the way as well, and like those very much on first acquaintance.

But be careful. Uwe is a deep and wide pool to start swimming in, and you may never reach the other side!
