#CooperIsland second session. The photo fully captures the pain and despair of the session (but I won). What a game!

We still need to dig deeper but so far the gameplay experience is absolutely enjoyable. It's just that they tried a little too hard to push the theme through graphic elements and lost control of it a bit.

Ok, we played our first game of #Pest. Hot takes: I think it suffered from a kind of poorly managed crowdfunding gigantism in its design. It's literally a dead boar to gut on the table. Only GWT New Zealand and Hegemony can compete in terms of table space occupied...

Learning how to play #pest It seems good right now but the art and design are just insane... This is a full clogged 2 m table for f*k sake...

This is an interesting point that I will keep an eye on. We are still quite new to the game, we have only played 2/3 games. My feel is that, if placed in the lowest slot, they can be quite powerful, allowing you to gain 8 points at a low cost and accumulate a lot of influence very quickly.

The first pic is from another session. Unfortunately was my wife the winner with the builders, the scribes and the grocers. I lost with the metallurgist, the miners and the innkeepers

Endeavour: Deep Sea it's my personal "coitus interruptus" of boardgame... When you are on the verge of enjoyment... It's gone and you find yourself playing patchwork because tomorrow is working day. But still like It...

Since I live in Italy, it’s been probably easier for me to find it. It’s published by an Italian publisher, Studio Supernova, and I know they haven’t made much effort to distribute it on a large scale.

Oath: New Foundations More storytelling, new features, and shared victories!

Oath: New Foundations is an expansion for Oath due to hit late this year. But you can print'n'play it *today*, because of a little software side-project of mine.

We really enjoyed our 2 first play. Quite easy to learn but a tons of different pathways to chose and master while trying to swim the meeples' generational decay. I agree : a bit underrated.

#villagebigbox First impression – watching a meeple die is heartbreaking, and at the same time it’s 4 points in the Chronicles! Let the plague come!!! #boardgame
