Done a murder mystery game with the weans the other week and then another shot of Alien - fate of the nostromo, which was decent.

I’m looking at maybe getting Wingspan this weekend as I reckon weans will love that.

    Just played Pan Am for the first time yesterday.

    Thoroughly enjoyed it. It’s a worker placement with bidding mechanics and route-taking not dissimilar to ticket to ride.

    Only issue is that I would love to seen this game with a player count more than 4. I find it so hard to have 4 or less people to play games with since my significant other also loves games so we’re line 90% always playing together in our groups which then means for those kind of games only two of our friends can join in.

      Not gonna lie, that board game would have had 8 year old me enthralled in '90! I just love that cover art - reminds me so much of of Josh Kirby, especially Pratchett’s Strata and The Dark Side of the Sun book covers!

      Wingspan is so good. It’s my significant others favourite board game. She recently just got the Asia expansion which had a new 2 player only mode (as well as a 6-7 player mode) and it was really fun playing it with the changes they made for that. (The 6-7 is the same as the standard game just with more people).
