Gday friends! I hope you are well and board games are filling your life with joy! What are your experiences with engine building in board gaming. What are some of your favourite engine building games? Are there some board game terms that you found hard to understand when you entered the hobby or are there terms you still find confusing. Share your story below. This is a very safe space to share and chat Cheers Danny :)
Earth looks very pretty and interesting. With Wingspan, I feel like so far I more notice combos that turn up, than plan them.... probably because we haven't gotten past the starter pack yet (used to introduce new players). I love your T. Rex roaring a rainbow T shirt!
I am still confused about deck building. Sometimes it seems to mean people buy additional card packs to (hope to) get cards they want (not a rabbit hole I want to go down), but other times is it about how you discard cards and what that means for your hand in future rounds? I heard that "Friday" was a good solitaire game and I tried it but for me as a newbie it was miserable, I could not win ever.
I am producing a guide to deck building for beginners so stay tuned! Yes sometimes solo games can be really really brutal. There are a few good deck building style games where you don't have to invest in extra packs.
Friday is tricky, it is all about the right battles to lose, because you can throw away useless cards. I bought the app after losing a few times, which is great to learn with. And don't forget to use the card abilities, they all are great in their own way.
Excellent video, i love board games but never really know with ny friends as sometimes its hit or miss how long we are into something. I saw a video another creator made, that id love to see others do. If you had to start tour collection over and could only choose 20 games what would they be
2:47 I checked Wingspan out of the library, learned it with two friends, loved it! I got it for Christmas and I've only had a chance to play once, solo play, which was also fun.
