Last night I played a Funko's Scream Game with three other people, and the overall feeling I get is that is perfectly emulated the anxiety of working in a disfunctional team: someone understand rules badly, everyone's shouting at the same time and no one plays cooperative, but trying to get rid of their objective.
Hey boardgamers with your resources represented by various coloured wooden cubes. When thinking about #immigration, remember that #immigrants are one of those resources. Sure, every 20th light brown wooden cube or so may come with a point penalty. But the net effect of receiving those cubes is super strong. It's how you win the game after the Demographic Transition.
The #Scifi Book Stores in #Stockholm, #Gothenburg and #Malmö are one of Sweden's most profitable businesses in book retail. They sell tabletop games as well. So at their recent equity issuance I did something unprecedented and bought some stock.
The Stockholm #Scifi Book Store is bang in the middle of the Old Town's main tourist street, where almost every other shop space offers either tacky souvenirs, meals or snacks. Big shop, hundreds of square metres on two floors. It's amazing that they can make that work!
Tried my hand at another game of #TinyEpicDinosaurs but this time used a more balanced solo variant from the BGG forums and it was much more enjoyable. I won by 5 but never felt like I was running away with the game.
Took folks to school playing #PaoloMori's #LibertaliaWindsOfGalecrest, but just literally speaking, as I was teaching the game. 😁 I did win, but just a squeaker of a couple points. Tight spread between players at the finish, which always makes for a more tense game. Chaotic, but so much fun and underrated in my book.
Junk Drawer - fit the items in the drawers according to the scorecard to gain points. Quick and simple. I like this.
Comic Hunters - Draft to collect sets of comics to score points. I liked the various ways to get the comics and the decision on which collections to make.
