After Pandemic this morning the kiddo goes “you know what we should play now?!” (I know what he’s going to say) Flash Point Fire Rescue (by Indie Boards and Cards ) One of our most played games. Can’t wait for Legacy to deliver! Re-gluing some trays after years of play

“Hey dada, want to just play the other Pandemic one now, with Europe?” Sure do bud. A quick first play and win of Pandemic Hot Zone Europe (by @mattleacock and Z-Man Games ) “Oh man that was too easy! Let’s play the big Pandemic!”

The kiddo was enjoying helping me mark some previously unplayed games off my list until Dicemasters: D&D Battle for Faerun (by Mike Elliott Eric Lang (@ericlang .bsky.social) and WizKids ) came out. Two games later he’s taking a break while muttering about unfair dice rolls.

Pre-Essen woes: Thursday night I got sick, been trying to spend as much time with my kid as possible this weekend while feeling like a blob. Tonight before bed he asked to use my wife’s phone and sent me this text. He asked if I got his text, I checked, we both cried. ❤️ ya kiddo

I got to attend Spiel in Essen this year as part of the NorthStar Game Studio booth staff. It was a rad experience and I hope to visit again!

While at Spiel I saw that Hobby Japan English (Publications) had R-Eco+ but it already sold out. I’m already a fan of the Z-Man Games version of R-Eco (it was one of my grails for a while. Super excited to hunt down and try the new variant game!

Brain: I've got nice plans for Sunday and Monday Body: Cool, lets wake up around 245 am Sunday and stay awake FOR NO REASON Cool, cool, cool

I can finally say I’ve played Risk 2210 AD by Hasbro / Avalon Hill Games with design work by Rob Daviau and Craig Van Ness. There are elements I appreciated, some that didn’t thrill me. My wife and kiddo both enjoyed it though so that’s a win.

Playing a first play of Coffee Rush by 코리아보드게임즈(Korea Boardgames) and having lots of fun laughing at things ending up in the wrong cups.
