I know my usual posting schedule has once again gone out the window.
Despite having had a half term to recharge the batteries. This past week I’ve been particularly tired in the evenings. Often falling asleep whilst watching something.
I’m not sure folks appreciate how draining the day can be. Especially when you are still adjusting.
However yesterday was the end of the week and once again the fortnightly Fenland Gamers Friday game night.
Which means I go straight from work to where we meet up and play some games. Well that’s the new routine for club night considering the time I finish on a Friday, and it’s on the way home.
Plus it means I get there early, and have time to get something to eat before the majority arrive. I also get to set up the tables ready for some gaming.
Last night I got to play a four player game of Portal.
I’d been wanting to play the game with more than two players.
Our game was shorter than I expected and not as cut throat. But I put that down to one of our players not being a “gamer” and not really paying attention to what was going on. More importantly putting all their eggs into one basket so to speak by having both of their test subjects in the same test chamber. Which opened them up to Ben placing a turret in that chamber and ending the game. At that point in time Ben had the most slices of cake out on the laboratory. Giving him the win.
The second game of the evening saw Ben grab his second win of the evening when he won Alien Frontiers.
The latest edition to the collection, Murder of Crows was my final game of the evening.
The game had only arrived the day before. So naturally I hadn’t had time to read the brief rulebook.
So as I shuffled the cards Ben quickly read the rulebook, and was first player. After all first player was meant to be the most shady looking person!
Murder of Crows is a nice light take that card game, that plays in less than thirty minutes.
It definitely has a spot in the roster of filler games in my collection.
Harrison won the game.
It was a good evening of gaming.
