Awful experience. After 4 plays I couldn't handle giving it another shot. It's SO terrible and drab. Luckily it had a high trade value on the market and was gone within the next month.
Regrets: Yuck! No. Good riddance.
Regrets: Absolutely not!
Regrets: I hated this game doesn't come with enough 6 sided die. But to help my buddy out, I included several other dice within the game so he doesn't have to pass dice every turn to the next player.
Regrets: None. If I had gotten this game earlier it would've stayed a little longer in my collection I think, before eventually being let go.
They didn't want anyone to have a choice of what they put in their bodies back then. Only when it involves murdering unborn is when they want that power.
Deplorable.
Yeah, of course they would.
Much cheaper than putting someone else on your Insurance or paying you maternity leave.
What a joke.
I didn't do it when I was a kid and I don't remember my siblings doing it either but my girls? They are the WORST about doing this.
We constantly has mosquitos in the house due to them holding up everyone from getting in because they just want to stop in the door frame.
I just don't get it.
Someone came up for an excellent short and tried to turn it into a feature film by adding 60 minutes of filler scenes to get them by.
Too bad, because I can recommend you watch the first 30 minutes, then fast forward through the rest to see how it ends.
Too bad. It had a lot of potential that was eventually squandered.
A clear move to satisfy the right who he's screwed over for the past 2 years in hopes they'll keep him as Governor next year.
It's not going to work. While this was indeed a good thing, it doesn't make up for how he's economically ruined our state over the past 2 years.
This guy has got to go.
Though they can still do it in a lot of states in the US who celebrate death, these wicked dangerous and violent people can rant all they want, we've solidified our stance as a nation who respects and cherishes life.
And that's something we should all take pride in.
Proud to be in this country which still respects the lives of the unborn. And congrats to every state (including mine) which has now made slaughtering unborn children illegal.
It's a good day indeed!
Regrets: Nope. Feld isn't a guaranteed hit for me every time so I don't need every single game he's created.
Regrets: None. I just hope he knows I wasn't just pawning a game off on him, I truly hope he's enjoyed it the past few years.
Regrets: Buying it so far in advanced in the first place. Never happen again.
Sadly, I needed it for a trade and had to let it go.
Regrets: Yes. I shouldn't have traded this one away. It was too new in my collection and I thought I wouldn't miss it but I do. If I see it for sale at a convention second hand, I'm picking it up.
Non-Horror Stephen King with a strong cast about some boys in 1959 who hear about a dead body and go to look at it before the cops find it.
Weird I know, but it's not that bad. Not his best either but a fun movie all the same. Can't believe it's been this long for me to finally see it. Every time I think about it, I forget the moment I start looking for something to watch.
Not King's best movie, more middle of the road. But worth my time all the same.
These were the last two I was interested in trying. I'm glad I got them but am ready to move back to my classic Pistachio Almond the next time we get ice cream at the store.
We played with new rules that I'd missed over in my initial read.
In the Agenda phase you refresh all your planets and vote, one at a time, on an agenda card then do it again with whatever planet votes you have left over.
Also, Strategy Card 3 ALWAYS let's you pick Strategy Cards 1st every round which makes the card highly desirable.
So with the revised rules in play I made sure to conquer as many worlds as I could to control the votes. NEVER got Speaker so I didn't have to vote first and could move the vote any way I wanted, and killed it!
The moment the rules were explained to me, the strategy was easy to see.
Love this game. But am happy to shelve it for the time being until my Codex expansions come in later this summer.
Long live the king.
The last two games I think everyone knew the steps you had to take to win. And it all depended on luck of the roll at that point. When rolling dice is the only way to add a random development to your game, you're game is no different than Monopoly.
Regrets: None. Traded it away for a better game in my collection.
They hated it.
So I traded it off again and out of my collection. Flick'em games aren't my thing but if my nephews would've loved it I would've kept it around. (like I do with Santorini)
Regrets: No way. I sucked at this game too. Glad its gone.
Regrets: None
Regrets: Nope. Plenty of games for my kids to play in my collection when the time arrives.
SPOILERS: It typically sucks, which was the case for this game too. Nice 3D board and artwork, horrendous gameplay.
Got it for $2 on clearance once and quickly found out why.
Regrets: None.
I tried a few more flavors of the ice cream and wanted to give my thoughts.
Taste just like the snack cake, but the brownie bites are a little too much for me.
Wow. This is good! But oddly enough, it doesn't taste that much like the snack cake. I will say this, the vanilla ice cream in this one is UNBELIEVABLE!
So far, it's my favorite!
Regrets: A little but not much. I got over it soon. The game is fun, but when it's not even a Top 100 game for me, I find it easier to let go.
I didn't think I had a chance, since it started off "them vs me" but right out of the gate the game changed rapidly.
Instead wasting moves trying to take me out, they ran for the points. (smart)
I used a "shield" play, where you follow behind the leader without passing them up too soon. Then as you getting closer to 10, jump him for the win!
It's not the first time I've tried that strategy. They didn't see me as a threat until I hopped into the lead. by then, the game was all over. Not only was I able to complete the 2 point Objective for the round, but I also had the power to steal a VP after the vote AND had a secret mission that could be completed just in case.
Cementing yet another victory for the King of the Imperium.
I will say this though...all the players now have gotten much better at it. And if the objectives and secret missions hadn't gone my way....I know I could've lost to at least 3 of them.
My streak WILL come to an end and I'll happily shake the person's hand when that day comes.....hopefully in a few more years. : )
Wow.
Excellent.
If you've seen a lot of Cage movies, you'll like it.
If you've seen all his movies....you'll love it.
Excellent film. Highly recommend.
The game was kind of "one note" in that you didn't have that much of a selection to make serious decisions with. Flowers, flags and balloons of 3 different colors. That was it.
I gave it away a few Christmas' ago to someone on my gaming group.
Regrets: Nice theme. Bland gameplay.
The TI4 print and plays just got back from the factory and the guy putting this altogether showed some pics for it and they look GREAT!!!
Since it's just him mailing them out I don't expect my copy to arrive here in the US until late July/Early August but I am PUMPED for them already!!!!
Can't wait to get this to the table!
Also a reminder of what happened to Sodom and Gomorrah too. : )
Not as sweet as Pepsi and not as carbonated as Coke (which I can't drink at all these days)
Just reminded me why I love this soda so much. And I recently discovered its owned by Dr Pepper! So it's still a 3rd party candidate in the soda war, which fits my personality perfectly!
Regrets: None really. I know one person in my gaming group loved to play, but since they hardly come around as often as they once did, I don't think they even notice it's gone.
Today, I wanted to talk about this party game. That I took to one of beach vacations a few years back and after 3 1/2 plays discovered we had gone through all the cards the game had to offer, thereby taking any challenge away from the game.
I threw it away before we left. It wasn't even deserving of my time to take it back home.
Regrets: Maybe. Megan REALLY loved this game and I think they may have come out with a booster pack for it, which if true, would've been a great thing needed for this game.
I'm ready to return to work and worry what's all changed and how much I'll have to do to get caught up. But it's ALL worth it to be given the chance to be with this pumpkins.
Daddy's had a lifelong happy memory and will cherish it forever!
And it has one of the worst design flaws I've ever seen in a game. The pieces that are supposed to give your hamster more weight, thereby strengthening his chances of winning....are as light as a feather and make ZERO difference.
I was crushed this game was ruined over that. So I gave it over to my nephews who still thought it was funny to play regardless.
Regrets: Nope!
I'd forgotten I had traded THIS game away earlier, knowing I had Cable Car and that both were very similar yet I only wanted one to stay in my collection.
And now I have neither.
Regrets: None. I want Cable Car more at this point I think.
This was a social game of misdirection tonight. (it's the only card left I had in my hand of tricks) Pizza, music and off topic conversations lightened the mood and suddenly everyone realized I was one point away from winning, sitting on Rex, with Strategy #8 in my hand.
There was nothing they could do in the end, since I had first pick that round. To their credit, while I selected #8 they were all plotting to take me down.....but realized it was too late when they saw what I had in my hand.
The game wet 3 rounds without anyone getting a point, then I played the next 2 rounds playing catch-up, but in round 6 I established a lead and by the end of round 7 sealed the victory.
I love this game. I'm planning 2 more games before I return to work. I'm doubtful I'll stay on top for too long. I know my time is coming where I'll eventually have to give up my crown.
But tonight wasn't that night!
I know it's based off a video game I've never played but it runs like a fast paced Indiana Jones movie. Both Holland and Whalberg are excellent in it and definitely made the movie more enjoyable than it should've been.
The action gets a little over the top at the end and comes close to entering "Michael Bay" territory but overall, it's a fun popcorn film that we all enjoyed.
This one was a little better than the last one I saw. It's about an assassin who's suffering from Alzheimer's disease and loses his medicine during his last kill. Like every one of his films it's a revenge flick and has it's moments but at 69 years old, he's feeling his age and his action scenes have cooled down a lot. It's understandable but the films are way slower paced now and just not as good.
I'm not done watching his movies but one more strike and I think I'll stop. His best years seem behind him.
What a waste of time this entire series has been. Do Harry Potter fans even care about this? It's HORRIBLE.
We only decided to watch it because Megan's sister wanted to see it and even then I had a very bad feeling about it. I turned out to be right.
If someone forces you to watch it, get a doggy bag to vomit in. It's that bad.
Meh.
I was expecting something much better but couldn't taste the difference between this and any other brand.
Sad.
But at least I can scratch it off my grocery bucket list now!
The problem? It didn't have enough eat on the bone to stay in my collection. Kinda simple and very dated. Plus the score track set up was really weird which makes me wonder how much effort the designer put into the board.
Regrets: Either way, it's gone from my collection now, so no.
Regrets: Not anymore. I stopped watching the show a few years ago and as I said, there are better bidding games out there I'd rather play.
Regrets: The game looked beautiful but I could tell after a couple of plays (even with the mini expansion) this was getting old quick.
