Recent Boardgames (Your Last Played Game Volume 2)

I got in all of my new games yesterday.

  • Calico - 3 solos by now. Wildly different scoring. Love the puzzle (had played before on TTS so I knew what I was getting)
  • Unmatched: Lost with Artus to my partner’s Medusa. Thanks @COMaestro for posting all those times Medusa won. And because I lost so badly, I will get to play again.
  • Hardback is so much better on the table in my native language. I really like how the deck building comes together and it does remind me of my favorite deck builder Star Realms in a good way. But it’s a puzzle and it plays solo, lovely. Also the ink mechanism is great. Buying more cards that you then have to use… my final word was “Fön” btw :smiley: my longest one was “Stirnglatze” (yes, I used duden.de to verify)

Tonight we had a wonderful online game night of old favorites (both games and friends :wink: )

  • 2 games of Azul in TTS which… … I both won. It was close between my partner and me (2 points both times, the other two were a bit behind). And that fully scripted lazy people’s mod that does all the work…
  • Then 2 games of 7 Wonders on BGA. My first ever BGA games and I must say I am pleasantly surprised how much fun that was. I won one of the two games because green cards…
  • 2 rounds of Hana Bi which we had not played in ages and my partner was not having fun. I do not regret giving it away in this week’s purge. I like the game but The Crew is much better.

The nicest thing about tonights game-night? Nobody had to explain any games. No teaching, just playing.

We would all much rather play games on a table together counting points ourselves and setting up games. When you don’t have to do that 7 Wonders lasts all of 15 minutes… But as we’re sliding into the third wave… game nights here are still a far off dream.
