I work so I can buy more boardgames

I recently purchased Deckers for my solo adventures. It's interesting but frustrating. I've played 5 times but I've always forgotten some important rule. There's something there but so easy to forget steps. As I play more I hope I might be able to play it correctly 🤞 #boardgames #soloboardgames

Part of a Deckers game board. Visible are sparks, programs, installations, avatars and a deck marked Deckers.

I'm flying out of München. The home city of Dr. Reiner Knizia, who has designed over 800 board and card games. And this is the board game selection sold at the airport. Disappointed but also a little surprised. I expected more 😔 #boardgames

Shelves with games and toys. The top two shelves have a selection of normal playong cards, Uno, Yahtzee, Connect 4, Parcheesi and Chess. Dominos can be found in the third shelf.

April plays. Crisps! was dethroned after sitting firmly at the top each month, for the first quarter of the year. I had expected Conservas to be at the top but Got Five! came out of the blue and took the spot. #boardgames

I can recommend. Easily game of the year for me and it's only February. Small box you can take anywhere. Perfect play time for game weight and player count. Has become the 'night cap' for me and my daughter (one game of Crisps! before she goes to sleep... if it's not too late)

only 5 copies left of @shreesh.bsky.social's fantastic game Crisps! once they're gone they're gone! www.newmillindustries.com/store/p/crisps pick up some other rad games while you're at it!

Fifth day of #spielmas and I'm back at 3 different games but only one making a reoccurrence. Now there's only one day left of Spielmas and one day left of the year and then a big reveal as to why spielmas was pretty special to me this year. #boardgames

A printed spielmas display with three tokens on a hexagonal space marked December 30: A purple happy wooden dragon, a circular token with a galaxy on and the circular galacy token has a four cornered star hole through it, and a black and orange cardboard token pointing upwards labeled +1.
