I haven’t had to work out my learning and teaching muscles since hubby’s so good at it (and he’s usually around). If I need to teach it definitely needs to be one I’ve played before.

I’m a sucker for pick-up-and-deliver. We picked up Sail at PAXEast because we forgot to pack a small 2p game for ourselves. Fortunately hubby is great at learning games from rulebooks.

I’ve been loving Sail lately and absolutely need to try Bus & Stop!

Wow, I learned a lot from Sin Knighteye today. My advice wouldn’t have gone past “I paired my XBox controller to my Steamdeck and it works” Have fun, Tony!

I remember picking up the newly released 5e at my first GenCon! There were plenty of copies that year, though

As long as hubby and I are fairly well matched for plays I’ll be happy.

It’s hard to tell from the back, but this is Spencer’s brother, Loki! They are both very good at boardgames

Part III: Here's an attempt to filter the list of all Gen Con releases to all the women and non-binary designers. I probably missed some, let us know. Give these games a thumbs up, & help signal boost these designers!! (And check out Undergrove -- please and thank you ❤️🍄)

Got up to some gaming with hubby and Kid2 tonight. We started off with a very close game of Railroad Ink. We were then defeated by Uru-Enchanted Iron Man commander with his War of the Frost Giants scheme in Legendary Marvel #boardgames

Everyone in the family is doing their own thing tonight so I was inspired to pull out Railroad Ink #boardgame and try some of the expansions. It’s nice to focus more on the puzzle than the score for a relaxing solo evening.

Hooray for excitement about fun stuff! The Marvel minis are fantastic so I'm sure the DC stuff will be too

I’ve played with the extra red dice and it was fun. I actually have a bunch more still to explore. Maybe I’ll suggest this to the family next!

On a whim we decided to start up our third family campaign of Dice Throne Adventures #boardgame. Should keep us busy this summer with a relaxing way to hang out together.
