I think in its original form, browser based I think, you just had OneShot. But I really enjoyed it. Great to see it mentioned.

Mrwhostheboss video about Temu made me unsubscribe. Felt more like advertisement than anything else.

The worst thing is even in more expensive cars, like a BMW the interfaces or touch screens feel like operating a touch face from the early 2000. The turning button navigator in BMW felt like a joke to me first time I drove one. Would rather avoid such displays and connect my phone for navigation than use this

Boardgames. You can go all in and Kickstart cool games and buy all the bits and pieces. But actually, board gamers are always in the lookout for players. Therefore you’ll find a big community with lots of games and it is not necessary to have your own games. If you do like to buy though but want to avoid costs, share it with someone. Make it your game. Many you can’t play alone anyway. I wouldn’t mind someone to have no games at all but spend the time with me to play. Your time is the most valuable. And: it is easier to find friends through board gaming than get your friends to play boardgames.

I am still on a boardgame weekend, but so far I have played this week Root twice. I have never seen the board so dominated by the Lizard Cult. Followed by the Riverfolk. Both players played Root the first time and played each faction really well. The Riverfolk was the perfect car(d) dealer from the start.

Treehouse Diner: cute but one bad decision killed the game for me 🥲

Bitoku: still a cool Game

Temple of Secrets

Wenn in NRW mal wieder der ÖPNV ein Trauerspiel ist, einfach die Mobilitätsgarantie gönnen. Taxi, einreichen und gut ist. Die SWB ist generell recht unzuverlässig. Deswegen einfach jedesmal nutzen.

The week started with

Flamecraft. Still cute. Still like the game.

Thursday a brand new Kickstarter was played:

Voidfall. We only managed 2/3 since it was for all players their first game. Once you get the hang of the game each turn plays smoothly.

Cabo. There is always time for a quick round and the opportunity to play a kamikaze move. And fail miserably.

Fort. Introduced the game to two new groups. Everyone just likes this entry friendly game.

Terraforming Mars. When is the right time to buy into the goals? I still don’t understand it 🥲

Cosmoctopus: a friend got the Kickstarter. Nice engine builder and resource management in mini. Theme looks nice but has really nothing to do with the game play. It is nice, I would play it again but don’t buy it. Keep the heros out: second run. Also a cute Kickstarter. The design is cute, the theme is there. I played the mice and the slime and like both but the mice like a little bit more. Nice coop game. Would play again (also not my game) Root: I love this game so much. But each time I play a different faction. And each time I forget a crucial part of the factions rules. For the first time ever I saw the eerie not go into turmoil. The game is only complete if you own all 3d printed third party extras. It adds soooo much.

I am the same. I prefer Ares. It is so much better in my opinion.
