Got daughter a laptop and as she was learning to use it at some point she complains that nothing will open. We just repeat 'are you clicking on it?' Took us several minutes to realize she had no concept of double clicking and it's was too ingrained for us to say explicitly

Oof that was a rough ending to Devil's Plan s2. Game design fail.

Long overdue I know, but the Steelers are finally dead to me. 25 years growing up in the 'Burgh is hard conditioning to break. Need a new team to casually check in on twice a season. Go Birds?

Middle Earth is saved, with one Hope left.

Looking forward to Wicked pt.2 but I am not sure "I'm off to see the wizard" as an action one-liner quite does it!

I see The Devil's Plan has discovered Knizia Scoring

Just saw the Fate of the Fellowship game comes with this. 😮
