My most played game was Terraforming Mars (my wifeโs favorite) with 76 total plays. A dozen games reached double digit plays, which is great. Of the new-to-me games, some of the faves quickly made it into our collection while a few moved from my โshelf of opportunityโ to a โpreviously ownedโ status.

I played in 19 different locations with 165 different people. My most frequent gaming partner was my wife and I love that sheโs so willing to play games with me, new and old. I attended 7 different game conventions and had a great time meeting up with friends and making new friends.

My 2024 Board Game Year in Review
Wowzers! 2024 was an epic gaming year for me. I played more games with more people than I have in many years.
I logged a total of 646 plays of 166 games, 91 of which were new-to-me (26 of which were previously owned games that I finally got around to playing).

I finally re-read the original Ali Baba stories. So fun.
I love the stories that come from this game. In the last game we played, two of us managed to get an encounter into the Dusky Land and the results were so different for both of us. It was a wonderfully fun time.

This is awesome news. This is one of my all time favorite games. My Zman copy is well playedโฆwe only get it to the table a couple of times each year but we thoroughly enjoy every play.
Iโm super excited to see what updates and improvements you bring to an Anniversary edition.
Stoked to try it out

Very excited for this. Tales is one of my all time favorites. I do have the Zman production and work to get it to the table at least a few times a year. Iโm interested to see the work thatโs gone into this updated anniversary edition.
Thanks for the work on this. ๐๐โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
