When did board games 'click' for you?
  • We do have one of the parks expansions (can't remember which one) but we still haven't had the chance to try it out.

  • I honestly haven't run into that much with the group I play Catan with. Our games are almost always neck and neck, usually with someone stealing the win right out from another person that seemed to be the closest.

    Although we have always played with the "house rule" that you can't play either of your starting settlements on a coast/dock, so maybe that helps with balancing. 🤷🏼‍♂️

  • Playing Wingspan as we speak!! I was a huge bird nut growing up so that one was an instant pickup when I heard about it. I still even have a box of a ton of bird statues and pictures in storage.

    I've been meaning to check out Cascadia, and I'll have to add Meadow to the list of potentials as well. Parks is another pretty fun nature one that we have, really cool art.

  • I'd always liked board games, but the wife and I never had anything beyond the 'classics', which were fun but kind of been there done that sort of vibe. Then one day a couple years ago we went down to our friend's house and they showed us Unstable Unicorns, Dixit, and Munchkin and our minds were blown. We immediately started buying the games we'd played and a couple more that had cool art and as we played more with friends and by ourselves we kept buying more and more, even being able to show our friends games they hadn't heard of. And now we have too many 🤣
