Played some „Ora et Labora“ the other night (the French side, even though I barely got any wine). This game still very much holds up - super enjoyable!

Something cool is coming and I was able to give it a try! @gmtgames.bsky.social

Played some „SpaceCorp“ yesterday and it’s simply amazing! So far I only played the solo game but I really like the human competition with some of the interaction/interference. Really outstanding! @gmtgames.bsky.social

Played the original „Caylus“ after years of not playing it and it still very much holds up! The designer (William) was playing „Shogun“ at the neighboring table by the way 🫣 Definitely one of the meaner euro-/workerplacement games out there.

Played my first training session of „The Adventures of Conan“ trying out the official solo mode. A bit bumpy but I do see very good potential here! @galeforcenine.bsky.social

Played another session of „7 Wonders: Architects“ with the little one. It’s really a perfect family game, which allows you to start playing right out of the box. @reposproduction.bsky.social #boardgames

Ok - I have to confess that the Solo-Pachisi (For One: Mensch ärgere dich nicht) is not easy… Interesting dice puzzler.

Yesterday’s game night was only one game: „Bier Pioniere“ and I really enjoyed this one; even though it went a tad too long for what it is. Pretty sure we can decrease the game time significantly when playing again soon though.

Finally we were able to continue our Thursday game night (our regular venue had some technical issues for quite a while) but we almost had 20 gamers joining us, so we had some great games on the various tables. I enjoyed „7 Empires“ and „Foundations of Metropolis“ - and actually won them both 🫣

It’s time to finish my solo playthrough of „Village“. The official solo mode comes with the beautiful „Big Box“ (at least I like it very much) by the way. #boardgame

Wondering what this might be… 🤔🫣🤭 @chiptheorygames.bsky.social

Tonight I am starting my solo playthrough of „Village“ - of course using the stuff from the „Big Box“. Let's play Village: Big Box - Solo - Part 1 youtu.be/KxQTr450Qz4

Finally pulled the trigger and got myself the big box of „Village“. Anyone tried the solo mode yet?

„Zombie Teenz Evolution“ is a great way to introduce the Little One to the „Legacy“ genre! She literally couldn’t wait to open the second envelope after the first one! 🤭

Today I was doing my first learning session of „Neon Hope“ where Cyberpunk meets the AHLCG (at least some mechanics feel remotely familiar). The publisher kindly provided a preview copy - the campaign will most like launch sometime in March on Kickstarter. @hopefulgames.bsky.social

We hosted a small game night yesterday and one of my favorite games came up: „Sheriff of Nottingham“. I didn’t do particularly well though… 🫣 #boardgames

Now that it’s here, I am quite happy I decided to also get the wooden box 🫣 @ulible.bsky.social

Played some „My Village“ tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it! Nice twist on the original „Village“!

I was so ready start recording my first quest in „League of Dungeoneers“ and then my camera failed me… Hopefully I can pick things up soon!

Played a full 4-player-session of „War of the Ring: the Card Game“ and it’s really amazing how thematic this one is. Imagine the inner dialogue here between Smeagol on one side and Gollum on the other! So cool! #boardgames

Guess the Game! This one should be relatively easy to figure out, but I always appreciate wrong-creative answers ;-) In case you are wondering: this was Stable Diffusion (Flux Dev) fed with a quite high level description of a board game. #boardgames #brettspiele #guessthegame

Stil heavily enjoying „Bruges“. Originally we planned on playing something else, but this was a perfect backup!

Played some „Rocketmen“ the other day and included the „Target: Jupiter“ expansion. Really cool what they added and/or changed. @phalanxgames.bsky.social

Not sure if I should play „Deadly Dowagers“ with my wife and she may have enjoyed the game way too much… 🫣🤭

Who else is still enjoying „Maracaibo“? We just played it the other night again and it was still amazing!

Guess the Game! Again the mighty AI generated an image based on a high level description of a - more or less - popular but rather abstract game. Can you guess it? #boardgames

Do you like to play auction games? Somehow there seems no grey in this mechanic - you either love or hate it. Do you have a favorite game? Yesterday we played „Nightmare Productions“ again - it‘s not my number one but definitely close ;-)

A tribute to CATAN #boardgames youtube.com/shorts/npFue...

Guess the (board) game! Again I asked the mighty to produce an image based on a high level description of a board gsme. Any ideas? #boardgames

Started my playthrough of „Buffy the Vampire Slayer“ on the channel. Really such a fun game! #buffythevampireslayer #boardgames

What‘s your favorite Rosenberg title, if any? Mine’s still „Agricola“ :)

Guess the (board) game! This one came out of the AI just nicely, only some minor refinements so they didn’t look like super models ;) #boardgames

Guess the (board) game! Stable Diffusion was fed with a high level description of a board game and that‘s the outcome. Can you guess it? #boardgames

Played some „Lords of Vegas“ yesterday and again had a blast. Simply an amazing game! #boardgames

Guess the game! Stable Diffusion interpreted the high level description of a board game quite nicely. Can you guess it? #boardgame

Yesterday I was able to tryout some prototypes by some of the regulars who are visiting our weekly game night. The below has the working titel „Handelbar“ (obviously a German term), but this is most likely going to change. This one is already very much playable but needs some further tweaking.

Received my preview copy of the latest expansion of „Mindbug“ and this time it’s all about Battlefruits! Have you played the original game? #cardgames

Yesterday’s filler was Reiner Knizia‘s „Mille Fiori“ including the expansion, so definitely a lengthy filler but really so enjoyable. Really like it a lot! #boardgames #reinerknizia

Played some auction games yesterday day. This one is the new edition of „Amun-Re“, which is still great fun! What’s your favorite auction game (if any)? Mine is definitely „Ra“.

There is some unpunching to do it seems… The game is „Euthia“ by the way and that only base game content.

Preparing my playthrough of „Defenders of the Realm“. My last session has been quite a while, so maybe I should be careful adding too much expansion stuff… 🤭

Another image from my series „Guess the Game“. Here the algorithm was only fed a very short description, but came up with a fitting image. Can you guess the game?

After quite a while we played another session of „Richard the Lionheart“, which is definitely a heavily underrated gem. The rules are pretty poor and are missing essential information/clarifications unfortunately. Apart from that an amazing game. #boardgames #richardthelionheart

Played some „Path of Civilization“ and really enjoyed it. Weight-wise close to „7 Wonders“ but maybe even a little bit quicker to teach and definitely some nice components. #pathofcivilization #boardgames #brettspiele #gamenight #civgame

Happy New Year, everyone! And now it’s time to guess the game. Stable Diffusion came up with it based on rough description of a boardgame ;-)

Played some „Harry Potter: House Cup Competition“ last night and my house Ravenclaw succeeded in the end! #boardgames
