Played more Underwater Cities. One of my favorite games, but I don't think I need the newest expansion. #boardgames

We went off on a small getaway, and I always enjoy exploring the small shops in small towns.

Played another game of Endeavor: Deep Sea. I think the game is good, but it's a bit "soft" on interaction, but that's okay. The rules are also relatively simple. #boardgames

Lignum: don't let the theme of drying wood turn you off, this game is tense and brain crunchy! #bgg #boardgames #brettspiele

Thebes, an oldie, but entertaining game. Very push-your-luck with trying to grab treasures from a bag. Some people may be turned off by the theme of artifact hunting. "It belongs in a museum!" #bgg #boardgames #brettspiele

My Top 10 - New To Me in 2025
After a difficult, emotional year, I did manage to play some games (about 64 total, 90% in person), a lot less than what I usually like to do. Hopefully 2026 will have more game playing, as well as a ...

Played Speakeasy, a Lacerda design. I'm not normally a fan of Lacerda, I enjoy streamlined games, but this was quite fun! I don't think it's worth the price, but I would play a friend's copy. #bgg #boardgames #brettspiele

We played Kutna Hora, which sounds cool, but the gameplay. was a bit convoluted. I think the population and mining decks are over-produced, I feel simple tracks would be better. I also think the mining mini-game was not integrated well enough. I'd have to play it again. #boardgames #bgg #brettpiele

From "Sea Doctor", a 14-min Chinese student short film by Jiang Wei (Tsinghua University).
He did almost everything himself (designs, 2D & 3D animation, backgrounds, compositing, etc).

Played Amalfi, a trading in the Mediterranean game, but with a novel worker placement/worker as resource system. A nice game, a couple flaws IMO, but not bad. Worth a look. #bgg #boardgames #brettspiele

Cargo Empire: gateway game, some fun mechanisms. I wish the board was a little tighter, maybe ports could be a tad more difficult. It's good, though. Check it out. #bgg #boardgames #brettspiele

In my old age I’ve mostly given up trying to convince anyone of anything. Most people do not care to find the truth, they care about what pumps their bags. Some people go as far as to believe that per...

We played Saltfjord. I was so exited! Sadly, it was divisive. I enjoyed it-- I like resource conversion, engine building-- but others in the group hated it. Random, boring, no interaction. Probably true. We'll play something else, then! #boardgames #bgg #brettspiel

Played Power Grid: Outpost. Small variant of Power Grid, I liked the twist of managing the cards, and the worker market. It's fun, feels more flexible, but not very different from regular PG. Recommended! #bgg #boardgames #brettspiel

Luna is a great game, classic. Very clever action mechanism that forces thinking ahead; what you want to do takes several steps. #boardgames #brettspiel #bgg
