Added to our Wingspan collection today - Americas Expansion. Have enjoyed adding each expansion over the years to give maximum variety. It really forces you to play and optimize the cards you are dealt.
Depends on the game… short games, party or family crowd who don’t game slot, absolutely.
Long game, would likely be playing with gaming group, so there is more willingness to push through to “check mark” that we tried the game fully.
Either way, it is painful. But the short games hurt less.
Played Feast for Odin once and loved it, so many actions to choose from… ya we really need to get to Agricola.
This might fall into the “relic” category
Agreed, time is tough to find.
Awesome game, played only I think once though… base version no add-ons. Definitely due to play again.
Sounds like you have the same problem as me - timed and then rulebooks are our primary barriers to enjoying many of these games.
Graduation?
CoB also a go to for us, we picked up the special edition. Believe it or not, haven’t played Agricola yet despite player so many other Uwe games.
That’s awesome, massive box right?
I really like the bag building mechanic, for whatever reason. Having some control of randomness? Quacks was our first, and Altiplano, then this.
Enjoyed playing this classic game, can you name it?

I’d say you know, though there are two “V” games that are very similar. I think you know though.
If you know those two, you could take an educated guess for top mid…
The “board” room?
No room to play!
Can you name all 6 games these coins are from?
Whoops! Mistook this for you got rid of Rococo. BGStats app makes more sense lol.
The app? Sorry I’m lost.
What turned you away?
Sounds like you need the BGStats app!
First play of Rococo Deluxe tonight by @eaglegryphon.bsky.social. Great experience.
Anyone else have a high score? Top score in our two player game was 96.
Cool! I have Raiders but haven’t tried it yet. Guess I’ll have to. Does seem there is a progression in difficulty happening that led up to Inventors.
Favourite game from Garphill Games?
We just played Wayfarers, it’s great! I think Paladins is still our favourite.
Woah! What game is this from?
Funny I’ve never heard of this! Cards look fun, looks like some nice compactness to it
What are you quantitative board game goals for the year?
Here are some we are thinking of using:

- Play 100 unique games
- Achieve 200 plays
