Stepping out of that ol’ Tardis vacated by some time lord or other that I borrowed it from. It looks like we’ve arrived at June 2016 to see what I was playing then.
I’m not sure if June was our last month of playing the Pandemic campaign but I think we were at least getting close to its conclusion.
Guilds of London was picked up at UKGE (my copy was signed by the designer) and was a pretty solid game. It’s only real drawback was the steep learning curve with the iconography.
Marco Polo a great dice placement game, and those game breaking variable player powers. Great fun.
It’s interesting that five of the months top played games are “pocket” sized games that finished in under forty minutes. That filler game bracket.
Ashes is a great lcg, with unique mechanics such as picking your starting hand from your deck, and the use of dice. It’s such a shame that the publisher screwed it up which relegated it to a niche game in that space.
Here is the full list of games played in June.
That’s the trip to the past over and done with. Time to pop back into that police box and try to return to the present day.
Fenland Gamers had been running for one year at this point (June 2016). It is a shame that games, such as Marco Polo, don’t get back to the table very often; in fact, I’ve not played Marco Polo since this time and it is indeed a brilliant game!
It is. I do have an idea for a 2023 challenge to replace the new to me one (which so far has been pretty easy going).
