๐Ÿ’ŽREVIEW๐Ÿ’Ž Manage your workshop, take care of your tools, and work with your cheerful helpers to complete the woodworking projects that will build your reputation as the best woodcrafter in the forest!๐Ÿชš๐Ÿชต ๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ 1-4 โฑ๏ธ 80-120 Minutes ๐Ÿฅณ 14+ Woodcraft is a resource management game where you are running a woodworking workshop to complete orders and build up the most prestige; And blueberries are a form of currency. The main mechanism of the game is an action selection wheel where you pick an action and slide it to the next quadrant. Through the action tile, players get bonuses that are above and below the selected tile. This is a complex game, but with a nice rulebook, that will take a couple of plays to grasp everything, especially for gamers that arenโ€™t familiar with heavier games. This is the first game Iโ€™ve played from Vladimir Suchy, and Iโ€™m looking forward to trying his other ones..๐Ÿ–‹๏ธ โš–๏ธ 3.5/5 ๐Ÿ“– @riograndegames #games #boardgame #boardgames #cardgame #cardgames #boardgamedad #boardgameaddict #boardgameenthusiast #boardgamecommunity #boardgamecollection #boardgamedesigner #bgg #bggcommunity #boardgamegeek #gamer #boardgamer #boardgamesofinstagram #cardgamesofinstagram #puzzle #puzzles #lego #hobbies #creator #fun #review #woodcraft

Itโ€™s #thematicthursday !๐Ÿ˜ Created by @boardgameoverlord This weekโ€™s theme is rest and relax!๐Ÿ˜Œ Puzzles are great for such things, but game wise, I had to go with an oldie but a goodieโ€ฆ Cribbage!โ™ฅ๏ธโ™ ๏ธโ™ฆ๏ธโ™ฃ๏ธ Cribbage is a card game, traditionally played with 2 players, invented in the early 17th century. It is played with a standard deck of cards and a signature piece of gameplay called the cribbage board.. Itโ€™s an easy, fun game that can set the tone for a nice and relaxing day along side a loved one, drinking some coffee or tea..๐Ÿต Iโ€™ve always wanted, and hope, to get a custom cribbage board one day..๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป #games #boardgame #boardgames #cardgame #cardgames #boardgamedad #boardgameaddict #boardgameenthusiast #boardgamecommunity #boardgamecollection #boardgamedesigner #bgg #bggcommunity #boardgamegeek #gamer #boardgamer #boardgamesofinstagram #cardgamesofinstagram #puzzle #puzzles #lego #hobbies #creator #fun #cribbage

๐Ÿ’ŽREVIEW๐Ÿ’Ž Behind the appearance of the most serene and romantic residential neighborhood lies fierce competition between construction companies to build itโ€ฆGrab the most prestigious plots of land and build beautiful houses, but donโ€™t forget the requirements of the town plan to accumulate bonus points and claim victory!๐Ÿก ๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ 2-4 โฑ๏ธ 45 Minutes ๐Ÿฅณ 8+ Sunrise Lane is a simple area control game that is a re-implementation of a game called Rondo, which I havenโ€™t played. As I havenโ€™t played the original, I went into this game not really knowing what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised. This game reminds me a lot of Ticket to Ride, but instead of trains, itโ€™s houses. I was drawn to it because of the artwork, and the designer. This is a quick, easy to learn and play game that is a great gateway game to show new players. I really enjoyed it and am looking forward to playing it more..๐Ÿ–‹๏ธ โš–๏ธ 3.5/5 ๐Ÿ“– @horribleguild #games #boardgame #boardgames #cardgame #cardgames #boardgamedad #boardgameaddict #boardgameenthusiast #boardgamecommunity #boardgamecollection #boardgamedesigner #bgg #bggcommunity #boardgamegeek #gamer #boardgamer #boardgamesofinstagram #cardgamesofinstagram #puzzle #puzzles #lego #hobbies #creator #fun #review #sunriselane

๐Ÿ’ŽREVIEW๐Ÿ’Ž Everybody tries to position spheres on their trays to earn as many points as possible. The task cards indicate how the spheres must be placed to earn points. Complete these tasks while racing against the timer. Prove to your opponents that you are the master of multi-dimensional thinking!๐Ÿง  ๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ 1-4 โฑ๏ธ 30 Minutes ๐Ÿฅณ 8+ Dimension is a fast-paced, innovative puzzle game that takes place in three dimensions with multiple colorful spheres, as the players all play at the same time. As Iโ€™ve come to learn, I love puzzly, thinky, brain burning games, and this one has exceeded my expectations. Dimension offers a real challenge for players as they try to explore the different options, and find a way to beat the clock with their best efforts. Itโ€™s quick and easy to learn and play, great to look at, brilliantly fun, and one that I highly recommend..๐Ÿ–‹๏ธ โš–๏ธ 4.5/5 ๐Ÿ“– @kosmos_games #games #boardgame #boardgames #cardgame #cardgames #boardgamedad #boardgameaddict #boardgameenthusiast #boardgamecommunity #boardgamecollection #boardgamedesigner #bgg #bggcommunity #boardgamegeek #gamer #boardgamer #boardgamesofinstagram #cardgamesofinstagram #puzzle #puzzles #lego #hobbies #creator #fun #review #dimension

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!๐Ÿฆƒ Itโ€™s #thematicthursday !๐Ÿ˜ Created by @boardgameoverlord This weekโ€™s theme is comfort! What better way to feel comfort, than having your home in the exact way you like it!๐Ÿ  Decorum is a cooperative, hidden information game where you and your partner share the same objective: decorate your home in a way that makes you both happy.

๐Ÿ’ŽREVIEW๐Ÿ’Ž Thistleville is the worldโ€™s most bustling little town-itโ€™s a challenge to keep up with all the locals, but as an editor at one of the local newspapers, your job is to tell their stories! The front page is due in just a few hours and you have no time for perfection! Grab the big stories before the other papers get a chance, and make sure you get the right photos, too. A newspaper is a business, so the money has to come from somewhere-donโ€™t forget the ads!๐Ÿ—ž๏ธ ๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ 1-6 โฑ๏ธ 15-30 Minutes ๐Ÿฅณ 10+ Fit to Print is a real time, tile laying game that blends puzzles and fast paced gameplay into a beautiful, engaging, fun experience that I canโ€™t wait to share with others. It has puzzle mode and challenges, and a solo mode that is great for players to practice and learn, creating high replayability. Itโ€™s one of my favorite games that Iโ€™ve recently played, and one that I highly recommend..if you can handle the stress..๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ–‹๏ธ โš–๏ธ 4.5/5 ๐Ÿ“– @alderaceg @flatoutgames #game #games #boardgame #boardgames #cardgame #cardgames #boardgamedad #boardgameaddict #boardgameenthusiast #boardgamecommunity #boardgamecollection #boardgamedesigner #bgg #bggcommunity #boardgamegeek #gamer #boardgamer #boardgamesofinstagram #cardgamesofinstagram #puzzle #puzzles #lego #hobbies #creator #review #fittoprint

Itโ€™s #thematicthursday !๐Ÿ˜ Created by @boardgameoverlord This weeks theme is Goals! I debated on what to do, but I have to show some love to one of my favorite sports..๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป Foosball, or table soccer, is a tabletop game loosely based on association football. The objective is to move the ball into the opponentโ€™s goal by manipulating rods which have figures attached resembling soccer players of two opposing teams..โšฝ๏ธ #games #boardgame #boardgames #cardgame #cardgames #boardgamedad #boardgameaddict #boardgameenthusiast #boardgamecommunity #boardgamecollection #boardgamedesigner #bgg #bggcommunity #boardgamegeek #gamer #boardgamer #boardgamesofinstagram #cardgamesofinstagram #puzzle #puzzles #lego #hobbies #creator #fun #soccer

๐Ÿ’ŽREVIEW๐Ÿ’Ž Explore, Settle, Develop, Trade, Consume, or Produce? Which do you need the most? Which of Earthโ€™s former colonies will be most successful at settling the galaxy, now that JumpDrive exists? Who will discover the secrets of the mysteriously vanished Alien Overlords? Your goal is to build the most prosperous and powerful space empire..๐ŸŒŒ ๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ 2-4 โฑ๏ธ 30-60 Minutes ๐Ÿฅณ 14+ Race for the Galaxy is an epic, sci-fi experience packed into a quick playing card game, thatโ€™s easy to set up. This game has incredible depth, a great array of strategies to explore and leads players to make interesting decisions. I understand why this game is loved by so many. There is, however, a big learning curve which is tough on new players. As suggested within my last review, I recommend starting with Jump Drive before going into Race for the Galaxy as it familiarizes players to the symbology..๐Ÿ–‹๏ธ โš–๏ธ 3.5/5 ๐Ÿ“– @riograndegames Thank you so much for sending this to review!๐Ÿ˜ #game #games #boardgame #boardgames #cardgame #cardgames #boardgamedad #boardgameaddict #boardgameenthusiast #boardgamecommunity #boardgamecollection #boardgamedesigner #bgg #bggcommunity #boardgamegeek #gamer #boardgamer #boardgamesofinstagram #cardgamesofinstagram #puzzle #puzzles #lego #hobbies #creator #review #raceforthegalaxy
