Through the week played – Parikrama, Wingspan, Tycoon 1981 (yet to be released but got a prototype copy from the designer 😀), Azul, Concordia (5p and 6p), Terraforming Mars, Avalon, Viscounts of the West Kingdom, Architects of the West Kingdom, Shasn Parikrama: Such an aptly named game in a travel friendly box! Simple game with just 2 actions per turn out of possible 4 and all 4 are nicely explained on a reference card. Played with 2 newbies and 1 experienced player. The newbies took a couple of rounds to understand but they quickly got the hang of it. In fact, the 2 experienced players tied for first place and one of the newbie was just 1 point behind! Now that's a great game that pulls people in and keeps wanting for more. Tycoon 1981: Nice complex game with multiple paths to win and the winner is not always evident. The one who seemed to be poised to win with the highest value actually lost coz of shares strategy adopted by another player! And now they want a revenge game 😂 Concordia team mode and competitive mode: 3 teams with each team having 1 person who had played it before and 1 who hadn't. This too was a close game and a lot of fun for all. It was equally fun at 6p team mode and 5p competitive mode. I personally enjoyed the team mode more coz of higher social and player interaction. Terraforming Mars: Played without the corporation cards and was a nice economic driven game. Not exactly comparable but in that vein, I will prefer Gaia Project over tfm anyday submitted by /u/kane-or-abel |
