Netrunner has been a bit of a new obsession for me. I have really been getting into the strategies and tactics when playing. Though this is a card game… it has the feel of a board game. #boardgames

I am a LoTR geek and Fellowship of the Ring Trick Taking Game has been a great experience. Each chapter has brought an interesting puzzle, and the art has been a delight to admire.

Player board and main board for Brass Birmingham

Player board and main board for Brass Birmingham

Brass Birmingham is ranked #1 on BGG, and I see the reason. It has some many interesting interaction points with the other players, and all the action happens on a common board. Such a great experience….

Mage Knight is a game that will always have a place in my collection. I do play it solo, but… I really enjoy it at two players.

Player board for the board game A Feast for Odin

A Feast for Odin is a game that really showed me the openness of the hobby. The number of options and the strategic paths really tickled the perfect spot of my brain.

I am going to try something new. I am going to create a thread on my top 5 board games I own at the moment. So…. in no particular order… 🧵

Been playing heavier games lately. I guess my mind has been racing, and I need something to occupy it. Today’s game was Kanban…. I really like the procedural nature and finding the best course of action with Sandra always on your case. #boardgames

I agree with you there. I think that what I like about this and Lisboa… finding ways to move forward in your strategies in alternative ways. Arcs is another example for me… though that one is more frustrating for some.

Yeah! Will say though, first play will be long. But all the interconnected systems are very interesting.

A Feast for Odin is a 10/10 for me. Great game, good decisions, tactile pieces, and rewards good planning.

A picture of a dark grey table with the board game Atiwa on it. From either side there are hands reaching in playing the game. On the picture is the logo of UNESCO and the text "intangible cultural heritage".

Playing board games are intangible cultural heritage 🎲

A few weeks ago, UNESCO declared board games to be an intangible cultural heritage. And we couldn't agree more on the reasons why board games are so important to human society!

Haven’t posted in awhile. Been a busy month, and because of that have kept gaming pretty straight forward. Only 3 games played this month… but have around 25 plays in total. Oh, and have already reached chapter 13 in Fellowship of the Ring. #boardgames

I think what works for me is one done in parts. *you could see Ricky Royals videos as an example* This way I could watch each part separately throughout my week.
