My wife and I are big Splendor fans, so we wanted to try the Marvel themed spinoff. I’m a Marvel fan so that seemed like a no-brainer.
After playing, we were not impressed. The original is better.

Adri and I have been playing a lot of Wingspan in the past few weeks. After more than 15 games, here is my take on the game.
After Schotten Totten, we got to play Lost Cities.
Do you play games with your significant other? Do you have recommendations for us?
“La Guerre des moutons”, orĀ “Wooly Wars”, is way more fun than it has any right to be!
The drawings are cute, the game is funny, you can build nice little fields and villages. It’s also a very strategic game! You have to strategize to get as many tiles in your hand as possible, plan your endgame, stop your opponents from closing big fields, all the while building pretty things!
We borrowed that game from the local library, but we may actually buy our own now. I’d definitely recommend it.
If you know of similar tile games that you’d recommend, let me know. I think we may try Carcassonne soon.
We finished our first “Unlock” game box tonight!
We struggled a lot with the first game, it was really frustrating. Luckily, there are 3 games per box (3 escape-game type adventures) and the two other games were a lot more fun to play.
97, a new record for me! I really like that game, it’s always a fun little challenge.
Also, it’s one of the few games where I can win, my wife usually beats me at most of the games we play :)
We got a few new board games for Christmas. One of them is Schotten Totten.
It’s a 1v1 game. You must build 9 formations of 3 cards, all laid out in front of you. Like in Poker, you build the best hands as possible to beat your opponent, while keeping in mind what hands your opponent can build. You build all 9 hands at the same time, and every time you’re sure that one of your hands can beat your opponent’s, you win a tile. Win 3 tiles next to each other, or 5 tiles total, and you win the game.
The game’s theme (2 Scottish clans battling for land) is honestly not that important, but the cards look cute :)
It’s a pretty nice game, requires a lot more concentration than one may think at first. All in all, a very fun game, I’d really recommend it!
