Sushi Go, Decrypto, and Dune Imperium.

My group has basically fully converted from Codenames to Decrypto now that everybody’s familiar with the rules. They’re terrible at arriving on time, so it’s great that the game supports a ton of people, and they can join halfway through without much hassle.

Sushi Go is still great - at this point I should probably try the Party version since I’ve played it so much. Liked Coup Rebellion G54 less than the original, and that game has the same concept of “add more cards to a good base game”, so I’m hesitating…

Dune Imperium is as good as ever.

I’ve printed a few minis but have no idea where to start in regards to painting them - got any good resources to share?

Yep, same. Mine corroded after a few months. Haven’t tried the epoxy idea from the comments but it sounds promising…

I think it’s a Sansevieria zeylanica or something similar!

Dune Imperium. Worker placement, (minor) deck building, and PvP combat — mashing the three together shouldn’t work this well together but it does.

I really like that the core loop of the game is easy enough to pick up. Makes it easier to introduce new people to the game. Design is oozing with theme and text/iconography is really clear (looking at you, Race for the Galaxy). Plus the expansions are all great! After two years of playing, it’s definitely one of my all-time favourites.

Nah, there was an option to change the left-swipe behaviour on a comment to collapse the comment’s thread all the way to the parent top-level comment, while also moving to the next top-level comment. It’s the default left-swipe behaviour right now on wefwef.

Red Rising. Felt like a ham-fisted, beat-you-in-with-the-class-warfare-moral imitation of Hunger Games, complete with a manic pixie dream girl. I still don’t understand how it’s so highly rated.

Just got started with the hobby, bought a stock Ender 3 v2 Neo. Happy with it so far!

Got my Codenames-loving friends to try Decrypto, and they had a blast!

Explaining the rules is a lot more complicated than actually playing the game though. I’ve found that explaining the rules to a large group of people to be the biggest hurdle in getting this game to the table.
