Wasn't the countdown for P4/P5 sale already ending? They are trying to sow FOMO in our minds

My guess is kav is either doing it on purpose or forgot about it

I think "Cat-vinski" is in charge of the clock...

They are a very underappreciated form of entertainment. Card games too. I mean, for a while they were just the typical Monopoly/Trivial Pursuit/Sorry style games, but now there's so much creative games out there.

There are indeed a wide variety of fun ones, especially in the cooperative scene. Pandemic is a great example, and there's expansions for it too. My favorite cooperative board games would be the Forbidden _ series (Forbidden Island, Desert, Skies, and Jungle), because each one is similar in how it's played, but so different at the same time. Island involves collecting artifacts on a sinking island, Desert involves assembling a flying machine to escape a desert before being buried alive, Skies I don't have yet, and Jungle involves escaping through a portal before alien creatures overwhelm you. Jungle I haven't beaten yet despite playing 3 times.

I gravitate to co-op games as well. There are also many spin-offs of Pandemic available too. I've played the Rome and Star Wars versions and enjoyed them. My favorite co-ops are Spirit Island (2-4 players) and Sky Team (2 player).

Does anyone have any suggestions for some games that have the loli tag? It's been a long time since any of the games I play have been updated

The prestige 1 upgrade lets you get rid of the timeout, it also grants access to Games+ if that's your thing.

Good to know...what is Games+ ?

Do you have any idea how many newbies are counting on those sweet, sweet reacts from backreaders to get to the next level?!

For the LOVE of newbies! I myself was one of them one week ago.

fair enough im still working myself towards + status so for me every little bit counts 2% is better then 0

That is the way it is. When you look at it in this way, this is exactly how it is evaluated.

Such a Sharp Pain is good as well as PGI-257(new so short for now)

Well there are over a thousand new boardgames published every year...It depends on a number of factors such as player count, game length, co-op or no, aggression, resource gathering, party style, and then there's theme...

The biggest problem I find with more complex board games is the low player count (Usually up to 5). We always have this problem in our friend group. All of us can't play at the same time and we have to make a rotation.

Has anyone played Dixit? Love that one. Trying to get some players, but not all, to guess your word/phrase turns out to be super interesting and fun. Plus the card art is pretty.

That's a nice problem to have. I often have the opposite problem.

Try to avoid double posts(two or more in a row)

How many players do you usually have? More than 5 is not impossible, but can be more challenging. We would typically split up into two smaller groups, if you have room for two tables.

You have to see it yourself

Don't worry, you'll find people to play with!

Here, headpat for you

Sometimes it happens to me and I regret it after I do it.

Yeah, Dixit is great. And I have the same problem. Nobody wants to play with me.

Well, someone's they do. But most of my friends live far away so I play with my family,

Haha, I didn't mean that to sound as pathetic as it did. It is true, but I do have people in my life. I just don't usually have a group of 4+ who are interested in playing a board game.

Well, if all are invited then around 9, but usually around 6-7

There's nothing to do. Sometimes such situations happen to us. It's not something we do on purpose. I do it accidentally without realizing it.

I didn't know the rule, sorry! I hope y'all don't get the wrong idea about me though. In general I think I try pretty hard to adhere to the spirit of the rules. I often visit this forum looking for opportunities to post but don't have anything to add, and so don't.
