Two #boardgame things I've had for a while, and finally got a chance to bust out. Ethnos & Twilight Inscription, both excellent.

Sooo close! But the Id, on its last turn was able to clear a grief layer on a case study which awarded it the maximum 12 points. I on the other hand, ended up one Heart Shaped Box shirt of being able to cure a patient for 10 points. Regardless, it went miles better than the thrashing I took in my first #SoloGame
My March plays thanks to @BGStatsApp
A few of these were check outs from the library which is a fantastic service!
I got absolutely rocked by the Id in my first #SoloGamer experience with #UnconsciousMind
I have it set up again and going to play again tonight. I definitely think I underutilized the notebook pages as I only had 3 additional ones over the starting tile. Which meant my ink pot actions were pretty puny.
Attention, this is not an april fools joke, this is not a drill! Our card game Grunlings: fantastic fruit, is now live on Kickstarter, with both an English and a German version!
We need all your support to make this adorable game happen. We got 30 days from now! Also check out all the cute addons we came up with, like signed prints or a postcard collection.

Zum Feierabend #Fromage - die zweite Partie. Schlechtere Punktzahl als beim ersten Spiel aber dafür hab mal ich gewonnen! Da eine Runde flott vorbei ist, muss man sich wirklich auf ein paar wenige Punkte fokussieren. Ich denke da wird noch viel Strategie im weiteren Kennenlernen des Spiels erfolgen.
Beim nächsten Mal werden dann die Advanced Structure Tiles dazu genommen.
Ach ja, ich hab auch wieder Kekse gebacken!
"Les Élémentaires"
Et si je vous parlais en détail des pions ?
En tout il y a 11 designs différents dans cette nouvelle version du jeu, chacun illustrant un "élément".
Mais sachez qu'il y a 10 ans, pour le premier prototype qu'on m'avait demandé, il y en avait le double, avec des versions "jour" et "nuit" pour chaque élément !

Let's do this. First #solo play of #UnconsciousMind
Might be crazy to start this at 10:30 pm but I just can't stop thinking of it.
: Brew
Brew is a 1-4 player dice placement and area control #boardgame, published by Pandasaurus Games. Players roll forage and element dice to gain resources, tame creatures, and control forests for points. A solid intro game to dice placement, best with 3+ players

: Meadow
Meadow is a 1-4 player tableau-building #boardgame by Klemens Kalicki, published by Rebel Studio and Asmodee. Players draft and layer nature-themed cards by matching symbols to score points. Strategy revolves around competing for limited cards and managing actions on the bonfire board. With gorgeous art and tight competition, it’s immersive but can be cutthroat in higher player counts!

I only got to play Unconscious Mind once after picking it up this weekend, but i can't stop thinking about it.

Played 3 new games this month:
1. Back to the future: Back in time -- I love the theme and design, but not sure about the replayability. Might be fine with different players. 7.5/10.
2. ito (it0?) -- simple rules but challenging to get it right! Fun to learn how others think about stuff. Everyone's scale is so different! 8/10.
3. Beacon Patrol -- not bad but nothing too exciting. Having a solo mode is nice though. 6/10.
The French film director Albert Lamorisse, most famous for his 1956 short film The Red Balloon , also invented the strategic board game Risk in 1957
My birthday is next week and I had a $40 gift card so I splurged a bit. I will trying out the solo mode tonight.
It's been a while but we played "The Jungle Awakens" 2 months ago to get used to the madness again. The scenario was pretty straightforward and predictable, and while enjoyable, is probably better suited for introducing people to #MansionsofMadness.
