I suffered with poor cards today vs an opponent picking up everything they needed. I love this game but I feel card luck more here than anywhere. #boardgames

Ooo very much preferred this Lancashire variety of Brass! #controversial You?

Dune Imperium.

Another rewarding game of Kutná Hora. Such a well rounded design. #boardgames

An epic return to the table for #Cloudage. Emma grabbed a dramatic late win with a pile of points from cards at endgame. A very accessible larger game from #AlexanderPfister and never got the buzz we feel it deserves. #boardgames

Which ONE would YOU choose? #boardgames

Lords of Vegas got played at a game group I go to. 5 player, dice, cards, tiles, area control, $millions, points galore and a gamble element! Was quite impressed after 1 play.

March Highlights: • Clank Legacy • 4P Ark Nova • Terraforming Mars as ever • & the cool Kutna Hora.

It was a 3hr epic but this 2nd play of Ares Expedition has made me realise it’s a pretty fab game in its own right. We streamlined the clunky card/action selection process and it was WAY better. The cards are great. We played loads of them and took are time terraforming :) 🙋🏻‍♂️ 88-80 🙆🏻‍♀️ #boardgames

Kutna Hora: The City of Silver A strong 8.5 from me! A tough teach but smooth, rewarding actions married with an unpredictable economy eventually gave us a really fun boardgame experience. If we hadn’t had TfM Ares Expedition to play we would have played again immediately! #boardgames

Borrowed it. Tried it. Not sure. Playing again with Emma. Will let you know. Original is best though! 💯 #boardgames

Quick shout out to #KIENDA Super quick response and replacement mat for Flick of Faith sent out with zero fuss. First class customer service. It’s not going unnoticed. #boardgames #customerservice

Love the components in Kutna Hora. Really hope Emma likes it.
