Games once again!
A recap from last weeks gaming...
It was a busy games day, but without too many guests. For most of the day, the only visitors were Jeff and Sara. Dan arrived late (about 10:30pm), but since nobody had work the next day, it wasn't a huge deal.
Games we played included:
Escape from Atlantis - We played in teams of one adult and one kid each, with Jeff & Jordan leading the most of their people to safety.
Dixit - Jordan won
Waldschattenspiel - I was the candle, trying to find the dwarves in the dark. I found a couple of them, but once I moved away they were rescued and all gathered beneath a tree, giving the dwarves the win.
Amun-Re - I started well, and was leading at the end of the old kingdom phase. Sadly, I was constantly strapped for cash during the new kingdom, and Jeff managed to squeak out a victory.
King of Tokyo - I won the first game, then nearly got a very powerful combination of powers in the second game. I had a card that meant triple 1s give me an extra turn with one less die, then there was another card that said you could change one of your dice to a 1 once a turn. This would have meant that I only needed double 1s to get another turn. Sadly, I pointed this card out, so Dan bought it to stop me from having it.
Last Night on Earth - We played the simplest scenario (kill 15 zombies) to introduce Sara to one of our more detailed games. Dan was the zombie master, but was unable to mass enough zombies to overwhelm us, and we were able to pick off most of them with our ranged weapons.
*Edit* Additional games played on Sunday included:
Buffy, the Vampire Slayer - Jeff was playing as the Master, but the forces of good (Lauren, Sara & me) were able to defeat him.
Agricola (with the fairy deck) - Jeff and I finished off the evening with a quick game of Agricola. The fairy deck provided some random silliness, and I was able to score slightly higher than Jeff, despite only having a four-person farm.
