Tried introducing my nephews to Pokemon TCG this Christmas, it was a disaster (feddit.cl)
submitted 10 months ago by fixmycode@feddit.cl to c/boardgames@feddit.de

I gifted the Pokemon Battle Academy set this year to my nephews (both 9yo). BA is boxed like a board game, it has three decks, two basic decks which are pre-sorted to play a tutorial game, and one advanced unsorted deck, along with guides for playing both decks, a full game guide, coin, damage counters, and a board which guides you on how to play. I also bought them sleeves and a couple of boosters that I told them they could use later.

I was there when they opened the box, told them about how I convinced their grandpa when I was their age to get me my first deck, and how I didn't play with anyone for a long time because no one in school had cards, and how lucky they were to have each other to play with. In the spirit of letting them do their Christmas thing, I told them "do you need me to teach you how to play?" they said they were ok, and I went to do other things around the house.

15 minutes later I come back and all cards are basically scattered around the room. One of my nephews is negotiating to trade 20 cards of their pre-constructed deck for the holo that comes on the other's deck. The advance deck is nowhere to be found, it's probably now part of their mega deck. The board, counters, coin and guides are still in the box.

They never battled, but all in all, they stayed trading cards all morning until they had to leave. One of them showed the other how to open their boosters the way youtubers open them (by putting the rare ones at the end for maximum content) and the importance of sleeving their holos.

I guess collecting is more fun these days. I'm happy they found joy in that.

Maybe we battle next year.

Heat: Pedal to the Metal is great fun (midwest.social)

Got the game a couple of days ago and so far we've had 4 sessions with 2-3 players. I know racing board games are generally kinda bad but we've been having a blast with this one. It's a hand management game, which means it's not quite as random as something with dice rolls like Formula D, while still having some unpredictability. It's relatively easy to learn and pretty intuitive once you've played a few rounds. There are also some very simple, but effective bot mechanics, so you can have a great game with only two players or even solo.

It's also really pretty and incredibly thematic. Everything is based on 60s Formula 1, which the F1 fan in me loves.

FAQ

I live in Niue/Canada/Haiti/USA, why are you posting on a Saturday?!

Because I'm writing this from Europe in the future where it's already Sunday. Timezones be crazy.

Why are there a bunch of non-board games in the board game list?

Because the Tabletop games category on Kickstarter includes anything remotely related to board games and sometimes things slip through my filters.

Why is this future award winning board game and literal saviour of humanity missing from your list?

Sometimes my filters get a bit overzealous and discard actually valid projects. If you feel something is missing for this reason, leave a comment and I'll add it (maybe).

Can I donate all my money to you?

No

Can you help me promote my game?

Please no. I make lists. Nothing more.

Your list is full of errors and now my favourite Facebook ads won't load!

Indeed, this fine piece of code runs purely on dQw4w9WgXcQ, so anything can happen. Leave a comment and I'll see what I can do.

Has anyone ever shopped at Gate Play? (www.gateplay.com)

Has anyone ever shopped at the online store Gate Play? I have never heard of them.

I saw an out of print expansion being sold below MSRP and wanted to see if anyone knew if the site was a scam. I am going to pay by credit card and read the terms of service, but don't want to have to bother with charge backs if I am not their first victim.

Ticket to Ride Legacy: Legends of the West is amazing (so far) (lemmy.world)

I've played 4 of the 12 games so far and I've been having a blast. I'm excited to play the next session, which is something I could never really say about ticket to ride.

We've been playing with 3 players and each session probably takes around 30 minutes. After each game, however, new stuff is introduced and sometimes it takes a bit to unpack and learn everything. The new stuff has been really easy to introduce and adds depth to the game. Most importantly, it adds fun.

Have you tried it? Is it on your radar?

FAQ

I live in Peru/Canada/Colombia/USA, why are you posting on a Saturday?!

Because I'm writing this from Europe in the future where it's already Sunday. Timezones be crazy.

Why are there a bunch of non-board games in the board game list?

Because the Tabletop games category on Kickstarter includes anything remotely related to board games and sometimes things slip through my filters.

Why is this future award winning board game and literal saviour of humanity missing from your list?

Sometimes my filters get a bit overzealous and discard actually valid projects. If you feel something is missing for this reason, leave a comment and I'll add it (maybe).

Can I donate all my money to you?

No

Can you help me promote my game?

Please no. I make lists. Nothing more.

Your list is full of errors and now my coffee is cold!

Indeed, this fine piece of code runs purely on not green M&M's, so anything can happen. Leave a comment and I'll see what I can do.

Good game of Roll for the Galaxy (lemmy.world)
submitted 11 months ago by valen@lemmy.world to c/boardgames@feddit.de

Just played a good game of Roll for the Galaxy. Usually we end up finishing the game because someone gets 12 developments/worlds, but this time we shifted to producing and shipping. It came down to who got to ship first in the last time (wife had a lower faction number, so she got it). Result was tied on VP. 😀

cross-posted from: https://sh.itjust.works/post/9999231

Welcome everyone!

I couldn't find a Carcassonne community, so I decided to create one. Feel free to post anything and everything related to the Carcassonne board game!

How long have you been playing Carcassonne? I've been playing on-and-off since around 2010, but got really into collecting every expansion during the summer of 2020.

What are your favourite expansions? My favourites are probably Traders and Builders or Abbey and Mayor.

I've created a community for Carcassonne. Come and join us at !carcassonne@feddit.de

Returning to the hobby after 4 years (lemmy.world)
submitted 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) by Perroboc@lemmy.world to c/boardgames@feddit.de

My son came into my life 4 years ago, and my daughter arrived 2 years after that. It’s been wonderful having them in my life, and I’m really happy!

But I left some things aside when they arrived, they take your life by storm and it’s difficult to focus on the things you used to do before them. One of these things is board games.

I used to play with friends like once a month, and built my collection around that group. Some games were meant to be played with my wife, and occasionally with her friends too.

Now I want to start playing again, and I’m thinking of two paths that may not be exclusive.

  1. Play with friends really late at night when my kids finally get a full night of uninterrupted sleep (not yet)
  2. Play with my kids. Haba games are well received here (my first orchid was a success), and these holidays we’re stacking up with like 4 more games (I really hope they like them).

So yeah, this is not much of a question but just wanted to share that I still like this hobby after 4 years, and hope to keep sharing it with friends and family 🙂

Has anyone here ordered Daybreak (the new game from the person who made Pandemic)? My copy is coming in the mail today, and I can't wait to try it out. (lemmy.world)

I used to love playing Pandemic, but now that we actually lived through one, none of my friends want to play it anymore, myself included. I'm really looking forward to Daybreak to hopefully reattain the vibes of the original while still being fresh.

Anyone else here getting it or looking forward to it?

This is the result of the Boardgamegeek 1-Player Guild's 2023 The People's Choice Top 200 Solo games compiled from about 20K community votes.

For those not familiar with BGG's geeklists the results are in reverse order so the number in front of the game's name is the position in the geeklist, not the position in the results. You can use the "200 items" button to more easily navigate the list.

FAQ

I live in Colombia/Canada/Niue/USA, why are you posting on a Saturday?!

Because I'm writing this from Europe in the future where it's already Sunday. Timezones be crazy.

Why are there a bunch of non-board games in the board game list?

Because the Tabletop games category on Kickstarter includes anything remotely related to board games and sometimes things slip through my filters.

Why is this future award winning board game and literal saviour of humanity missing from your list?

Sometimes my filters get a bit overzealous and discard actually valid projects. If you feel something is missing for this reason, leave a comment and I'll add it (maybe).

Can I donate all my money to you?

No

Can you help me promote my game?

Please no. I make lists. Nothing more.

Your list is full of errors and now the great old ones have awaken!

Indeed, this fine piece of code runs purely on blood and tiers, so anything can happen. Leave a comment and I'll see what I can do.

We had 3 or 4 sets.

And if you look closely, you can see some illegally placed pieces that somehow weren't noticed when placed

Custom Insert for Terraforming Mars (feddit.de)

I spend some time to make a custom insert for Terraforming Mars, I just dislike all those tiny baggies! Everything fits neatly into the box and I just love the boxes for the Gold, Silver and Copper resources. Its so satisfying to align them all inside :D. I also enjoy that the cards are at an angle, makes shuffling unnecessary because you can just pick a card at random. Really happy how these came out.
