How To Play:
Carcassonne (Big Box with 11 expansions)
=> BoardGameGeek
=> Official Website
=> Rule Book
NOTE: most expansion just add complexity (not fun) … but these work well: Inns and Cathedrals // Traders and Builders // The River (or River 2) is a nice way to start the game
Analysis Paralysis and Play Time => the FIX: Draw tile at end of turn instead of start of turn
How To Play in 3 Minutes (Rules Girl):
Genotype
I just ordered this game – it is PERFECT if you know about Gregor Mendel and his experiments in the 1800’s with peas … and heredity! You likely know some of this … like for a child to have red hair both parents need to have red hair (I think… might have to research this … and that is what this game is all about … LEARNING)
Perudo (aka Liar’s Dice)
Tripoley
NOTE: we have been playing Tripoley at our house for years (over a decade). We have our OWN set of rules! (yes, the do not match the videos online that show how to play).
Everyone gets two racks of poker chips of the color of their choice (we have over 10 colors)
To start a hand, everyone puts one chip of their color on each of the spots on the tripoley board.
Forbidden Sky
You actually are building physical circuits and there is real electricity in the game!
