A Quick Gaming Roundup Before Visiting Nath

A bit of a mouthful but the posts title says it all really.

Since the last round up just over a week ago I have managed to play some games. Not many granted but still some games have hit the table.

Much of the gaming I briefly talk about below were played because we ended up with six players at this weeks club night.

Rebel Princess: Probably my favourite trick taking game at the moment. I just love the variable player powers. Granted some more useful than others. I love the changing rules each round. These two factors help keep the game fresh. Add in the first expansion that adds in more of both, and the variety increases.

Celestia: Push your luck with a very light theme. Ok if you are the captain you have to keep going until you crash the airship or make it to the end (which early on is nigh on impossible). But as a passenger you have to decide if you stay on the airship or jump off. Obviously the longer you stay on the higher the points are when you get off. However if the airship crashes with you on it you get nowt. A nice intro game.

The Flow of History: It has been a very very long minute since this last hit the table. Seven years to be precise. I do like this civ themed game. I like the semi auction mechanic used to reserve a card you want. Throw in a bit of engine building and you have a nice light civ like game.

Faraway: The game that plays with your brain! Yeah I like Faraway, and I’m glad a few of us at the club feel the same way making it easier to get to the table.

That folks is all the gaming I’ve managed since the last update.
