Patchwork is certainly more interactive.

We shall see...<br /><br />I enjoyed Imhotep without loving it, but liked Eggs of Ostrich- good silly fun. Fuji Flush is def the new Pairs it seems....GNN Reportshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17982778341361220607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317166417552799764.post-4172455889743407072017-02-08T22:53:12.823+00:002017-02-08T22:53:12.823+00:00My lasting memory of the night is Martin, absolute...My lasting memory of the night is Martin, absolutely beside himself with joy/amazement/whisky at that four-way crimp that ended the last game of Fuji Flush. He was having quiet hysterics, as only a doctor of statistics could, at the insanity of four players each playing a 10. Very funny to behold!<br /><br />Manila was lovely, probably because I won. It is rather brilliant anyway, though.<br /><br />Team Play was great, probably because I thought we'd won.<br /><br />Colour Wheel was interesting, but perhaps the whole pyramids thing is a bit too abstract for me. I should try a few other games before dismissing it - it's certainly a beguiling package.<br /><br />Thanks all for a splendid evening.Joe Bergerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01710555098761136919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317166417552799764.post-4392107803864975372017-02-08T21:08:49.146+00:002017-02-08T21:08:49.146+00:00I didn't think Cottage Garden was a patch on P...I didn't think Cottage Garden was a patch on Patchwork, but I didn't hate it :) <br /><br />I'm really destroying my points ratio with all these short games!

I'm proud to be queen of the dick points :D Well done all and I look forward to an intimate gaming session next week. KatyTexashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05435264259174220735noreply@blogger.com
