Looking forward to trying this out on my next trip

It's cool but I think my group prefers to roll dice

I've played Cyclades a handful of times and had some issues with the static map setup and the game overstaying its welcome after multiple rounds of leader bashing followed by an abrupt ending as someone makes it out of the crab bucket eventually. I've never played with expansions, but it doesn't...

I would rather have a game that does one thing well, if I like it then I will get expansions in the future if I need variety.

Don't have a campaign going right now but in the past we've used music to set the stage for final bosses, I would use this for that kind of thing

El Grande is the oldest game that we still play, the King and Castillo are such a brilliant part of the design that no other area control games have managed to top for me.

Games that can be taught/played in a single evening are more practical, if there is long setup and extensive rules I will try it online before attempting to buy/teach to see if it's worth everyone investing their time.

I played MLEM, King of Tokyo, Obsession, Apiary, and Let's Go to Japan this month. Favorite play was Apiary and least favorite was KoT. I didn't really like King of Tokyo 10+ years ago and I like it even less now, very random and the cards are expensive and not worth trying to buy either. Apiary...

Congrats Don! $100 closer to a 600 game collection 😂

I keep a small collection of ~20 games, don't really need more than that with everyone in my group owning their own games and game nights being once every 2 weeks. Anything that I rate less than an 8 gets culled.

I use it to track plays, read reviews, and the player aids/errata. I definitely like this way better as a community simply due to size

I don't think it made any difference to me, on your turn you play a card and draw a card, table upkeep is low and BGA doesn't do anything to help count which birds and what types are in your flock.

I thought Splendor Duel did a good job of adding depth to the strategy without much more to the rules. I wouldn't be the one pulling it off the shelf to play but I definitely like it a lot better than original Splendor

I ended up trying Flockers out on BGA and it wasn't really for me. There's a lot of luck of the draw involved and in my one play it felt like flying the flock was an unrewarding part of the game, having to play multiple cards in order to change your lead bird if it doesn't match and then having...

20 plays in a week wow! All I managed to play this week was 2 quick rounds of Sushi Go Party and a game of Burgle Bros

I haven't tried it but City of Six Moons or Cerebria come to mind

Chinchilla and a salmon

An interesting theme makes me more likely to try a game out

More travel friendly games are always welcome

I think I was looking up reviews for Founders of Teotihuacan a few years back, rediscovered the site sometime last year
