Panda pandemonium: Takenoko Collector’s Edition

By Meeple Lady | March 23, 2016 | Comments 2 comments

So I’m a total sucker for all things cute … and giant pandas are no exception. Takenoko itself is a solid medium-heavy game that I’m always down to play, so when I saw an online deal on the Takenoko Collector’s Edition last year, I quickly jumped on that cuddly bad boy. It quite possibly is the largest chunk of change I’ve spent on one. single. board. game. And honestly, I have no regrets …

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!
