Boardgames. Cats.

@KosmosGamesUK Yes, yes, yes!

The teen and I learned Beez tonight. It played so quickly that we played 2 games in a row. It reminded us of Calico in a way -- the "how to play" is easy, but the "what should I do on this turn" is a lot more thinky. Overall, we enjoyed it and will def play again.

Sleeping Gods is scheduled to be delivered tomorrow. I feel like a little kid on Christmas Eve!

@EricBuscemi @mdriddlen I've played all 3 (orig, card, dice) and the card game was the only one to leave our house after 2 plays. IMO, it doesn't hold a candle to the other two.

[Boxed Cat Gamers @BoxedCatGamers]

@mdriddlen I agree. It stands very well on its own and is one roll & write that will likely never leave my collection.

I'm a little late to the game, but... Finally managed to snag a copy of @gengelstein's Super-Skill Pinball. After just one solo game tonight, I can't wait to teach the family! I'm amazed at how much it feels like playing pinball, and I think they're going to love it.

@MinimumPlayerCt But I have had that breakdown, too. Sorry you are going through it.

[Boxed Cat Gamers @BoxedCatGamers]

@MinimumPlayerCt I'm so sorry. One of our cats has major anxiety & tends to spray walls (or bookshelves / game shelves). We had her on kitty prozac for a couple months, which helped. It had been an almost daily issue & is down to very rarely now. I still keep games and books out of range, though.

My teen has been fairly meh about board games in recent months. But two that he has really enjoyed are Calico and The Search for Planet X. And I am MORE than happy to play these amazing games with him. Both are fantastic and fun. Even when he beats me.

[Boxed Cat Gamers @BoxedCatGamers]

Today in math, we did tricky probability problems. 1 involved a 3-way paintball battle, & the best strategy for the weakest player. Took a while to work through prob of him winning, but Logan(14) knew the best strategy right away, due to regular reading of GameTek by @gengelstein

Can. Not. Wait.

#CalicoGame is coming... Soon.

@425suzanne I bribed my teen to beat the divine beasts for me so I could focus on important things like quests and korok seeds.

Don’t miss out on this chance!

@andybosley A. (Also, this is awesome of you. Thank you!)

[Boxed Cat Gamers @BoxedCatGamers]

@Steve_Dee_TTC @GotGeniusGames Human Thorax and Human Abdomen are the next two. Although I believe there are 7 planned altogether.

[Boxed Cat Gamers @BoxedCatGamers]

@PonchoRebound @GotGeniusGames I don't know when we'll ever take it apart because it is just fascinating to look at!

[Boxed Cat Gamers @BoxedCatGamers]

@andybosley ❤️ Love this!

@MikeRisley My husband and I enjoyed 2 games of Copenhagen tonight, but neither of us ended up with a building quite that impressive.

[Boxed Cat Gamers @BoxedCatGamers]

@MaggiBot Two people in our house struggle and have an easier time taking pills with a spoonful of yogurt, applesauce, etc....one has even been known to use ketchup or ranch dressing. Something with more substance, swallowed quickly, seems to help.

I love Everdell's art, and following @andybosley means my timeline regularly makes me smile.

[Andrew Bosley of Wits End @andybosley]

More bad weather in #Everdell :(
