Microgames

I mentioned in December that I felt in need of microgames, and you all had good ideas, thank you.

Dobble is a great one, which is quick and easy and Andreas is really good at so he likes it a lot, and is usually in my handbag.

Right now, my handbag game is GG, a kickstarted Rock-Paper-Scissors game which Judith finds utterly delightful, and is reasonably fun.

We finally had a go on Coup and enjoyed it as much as we thought we would, so that's probably my thing-to-buy next time I have a spare tenner.

Exploding Kittens, more fun than I imagined but hasn't had a lot of play time, maybe I should throw that in to the mix, and King Toad, which is very basic but you get to make Toad noises, both good additions to our collection, I feel.

I grabbed a copy of WordWright from the kickstarter, but the kids aren't interested yet. Jack and I enjoyed it, though.

Fluxx goes into the handbag-rotation more than it used to, too, and also I've been meaning to play Early American Chrononauts because I've been looking at my card games more, but haven't yet. We don't have a copy of the original Chrononauts.



Meanwhile, Andreas got bored of all the games he previously played, and started asking for more. So I got him Enchanted Cupcake Party and Colt Express, and he's feeling a lot happier again. Still playing Lemminge about once a week or so, too, and Munchkin Treasure Hunt once a fortnight or so.


When I remember, I post pictures to [livejournal.com profile] watsonsatplay and I dotry and read comments there, so do ask questions and if you're generally interested in what we're playing, that's agood place to watch.
