Thought I’d combine the two posts this month.
So let’s start with a look at the games I played in the second half of the month.
Viticulture: I really do like the Bordeaux board. This time we added in the special workers expansion. It’s not a big addition and makes the decision when training a new worker a little bit more interesting. I think I can take or leave this expansion. It’s not essential.
Rebel Princess: ‘nuff said. We know how I feel about this game.
Euphoria: with the Essential edition coming out later in the year (I think April/May time) I wanted to try the game first. Luckily Charlene had the game. I rather liked it. So yes when the Essential edition is released I’ll pick a copy up.
Innovation Ultimate: we played with the Unseen and Cities expansions. Which is the maximum number of expansions you can play with at one time, and the two easiest ones. Once we got over the hurdle of the rules for the two expansions, the game with them was a lot of fun. It felt like there was a lot more take that going on. Which was needed to prevent a run away winner.
Heat Pedal to the Metal: Really liked this card driven race game. It’s a car version of Flamme Rouge. Which I enjoyed also when I played it years ago.
Scout: such a great card game in such a small box.
