Board Games

Let's Play a Game! A place to discuss all things board game, regardless of genre. Everything from Scrabble and Catan to Ark Nova, 1830 and beyond is fair game! That means we have blackjack. Bring your own hookers, sorry.

Rules:

  1. Play nicely with others here.
  2. Discussion should be at least somewhat related to board games and all that entails.
  3. Self-promotion is allowed within reason. Don't go overboard!

Though this is satire, we've all had that experience where we played a game (many times, even!) and only found out later that we got the rules massively wrong. Share your experience!

Ah my gf just got it in kickstarter and we haven't played it yet. I usually solo new games but I haven't had the time recently. Before Uncouncious Mind, my gf kickstartered Pest and let me tell you after 3 attempts I haven't been able to figure out how to get past turn 2. And I like GMT's MBT and the likes.
