Arizona Con Gamer Garage Sale

By Meeple Lady | May 25, 2017 | Comments 0 Comment

It’s super duper early Saturday morning in Chandler, Arizona, a suburb of Phoenix, and a neon-pink sign in the church parking lot that says “Sellers” points people toward a building on the back of the campus. Outside the auditorium, another sign greets you: “Welcome gamers!” Today is Arizona Con.

NEW POST: Last week, I traveled to Washington, D.C., to attend Circle DC, a convention held on April 5-7 and hosted by @fortcirclegames. Circle DC is a great convention for historical game designers; I actually played more prototypes than published games!

The most stressful Oink game! 😂 Rafter Five is a fun dexterity game where players are placing strips of "lumber" onto a raft so that one of the rafters and one of your treasure chests can sit on it. It's a tough balancing act because eventually you'll have to pick up a rafter, who may be the only thing holding the pieces of lumber together. This game was a hit at dinner with friends last night!

Attended a ladies' gaming event today and met some lovely people! I taught Bonsai and Cat Lady, and we also played Project L. I think everyone had a good time! How did you spend your Saturday?

Hung out with friends last night, and the weather was so nice that we were chilling and playing in the backyard. We played Chicken!, 6 Nimmnt and my friend's prototype (the tealights were just for light and aren't part of the game). Good times, and I love the weather in AZ right now.

I got a chance to play Barcelona recently. What a fun city-building puzzle! Players are constructing buildings, creating tram lines, and dropping off passengers while expanding the new modern city. On your turn, you draw two citizens from a cloth bag, and you place them on the board. The intersection of where you place those citizens determines which two to three actions you'll be doing on your turn. The game is played over a variable number of rounds based on the citizens who get removed from the board and placed on a track after constructing a building. Would definitely play this again!
