In the Games Cupboard. Wednesday, May 21, 2008. Sunday 20th May, 2007. Lisa and I spent the evening in the company of Jason and Annette and, as well as good food and good wine, great games were also enjoyed. Annette beat us all at Trans Europa. She finished a route really quickly whilst the rest of us were still floundering around, thus we all went 'bust' on the scoretrack whilst she remained on 8! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

In the Games Cupboard. Friday, June 22, 2007. Wednesday 9th May, 2007. I trekked into town to join in the playtesting for Jack's next publication, It's Alive. I've played this a couple of times in prototype form and greatly enjoyed it. This was a chance to see the finished artwork and play it with people who had not played before. The artwork is superb; it matches the theme perfectly. I played two 5-player games and a 3-player. I won the first 5 player and shouted "it's alive! Which is always fun!

In the Games Cupboard. Tuesday, May 08, 2007. Saturday 5th May, 2007. Today I made it to Beyond Monopoly. Soon after arriving I joined with Robert, Richard and Paul A to play Marra Cash. A game Richard had brought. In essence this is an auction and area control game in which you try to lure shoppers to your bazaars to earn money. Players auction off bazaars of various colours and get a cut if they can lure shoppers to bazaars of the same colour. The game is made more interesting by the dealing out of Loy...

In the Games Cupboard. Wednesday, May 21, 2008. Monday 21st May, 2007. Whilst our daughters played in the garden, Jason and I had a go at several Pitch Car. Tracks. Jason won the first 3 races in a row; I got stuck repeatedly on a jump during the first game, and stuck in a tunnel on the second - the third - I kept coming off the track! However, I made up for it (a little! During the fourth race in which I lapped Jason to take victory! That evening was Games Night! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

In the Games Cupboard. Saturday, June 23, 2007. Sunday 13th May, 2007. Whilst Ellie had an afternoon nap Lisa and I turned our attention to Trans Europa. I won both games, winning all 3 rounds in the first game. Lisa picked unfortunate cards, particularly for the yellow cities. Still, we both enjoyed playing and having a pot of coffee with cream!

In the Games Cupboard. Tuesday, May 08, 2007. Sunday 6th May, 2007. In our usual Sunday afternoon routine. whilst Ellie slept, Lisa and I decided to play a game. In a change to the norm though we played 3 games of Trans Europa. I won all 3 games, although they were all fairly close. Lisa started to look fed up with losing (she did seem to have harder routes than me! But assured me that she was still enjoying it and thought it was a good game. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

In the Games Cupboard. Tuesday, May 08, 2007. Saturday 5th may, 2007 (2). I borrowed a copy of Trans Europa. From Beyond Monopoly. It's a game I've played and enjoyed and it is staying firmly on my wishlist! I brought it home as I thought Lisa might enjoy it. She certainly did! We really enjoyed this game and agreed we would play it some more.instead of Carcassonne The Castle. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. One Thing at a Time - Lisa's blog.

In the Games Cupboard. Wednesday, May 21, 2008. Saturday 19th May, 2007. Today was Beyond Monopoly! I arrived late so lots of games were in progress. I hung around for awhile until Andy arrived. I then introduced him to the joys of It's Alive! Despite losing 37 to 54 Andy enjoyed the game and was impressed with the artwork. We then had a go at Balloon Cup. Andy had played before and so explained it to me thoroughly. We enjoyed this as it was well-balanced and fun! We mutually agreed to try Architekton.

Out of the Games Cupboard: September 2006
http://games-cupboard.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Out of the Games Cupboard. A random assortment of reflections, musings and a running commentary on life. Sunday, September 24, 2006. I might have broken my vestigial tail! On Friday I returned to the doctors to have my bottom felt! If it isn't broken then I will probably need to continue with pain relief and bottom-exercises until it goes away. The part of this I find really frustrating is that I don't know how I injured it in the first place! I haven't fallen on my bottom for years (honest! I thought wh...
