Day 6 of #spielmas found us hosting a New Year’s Eve party, but we managed to play a couple of games of Splendor before things got super busy. Thanks to @haoleboygames.com for hosting another great year of @spielmas.com and thanks to everyone who participated and shared your fun photos!
#boardgames I was surprised for day 5 of #spielmas when my daughter, unprompted, grabbed Planet and Calico from my shelf and asked to play them. Planet has been sitting unplayed for a while, and I’d been wanting to teach my girls to play Calico, so we dove right in.
#boardgames @spielmas.com Day 4 of #spielmas found me home alone for most of the day but I didn’t let that stop me from celebrating. I played an epic game of Final Girl that came down to the final health tokens. After dinner, everybody was pretty tired but we managed to play a quick game of Flip 7.
#boardgames @spielmas.com We broke out a classic for #spielmas day 3. I haven’t played Carcassonne in 5 years so I sat down with my wife and kids and played a couple games. My youngest daughter won the first game and my eldest daughter won the second.
#boardgames @spielmas.com Day 2 of #spielmas was celebrated with family over a game of The Gallerist. Quite a bit heavier than the games we played yesterday, but I’ve been wanting to get this to the table again for some time.
#boardgames @spielmas.com As we close out 2024, we also close out the fifth annual @spielmas.bsky.social festival. Tonight we celebrated with some friends and played a few games, ate some delicious food, and indulged in a few cocktails.
Thanks to @haoleboygames.bsky.social for the festival!
Happy New Year!
#boardgames We had another great @spielmas.bsky.social night at home with Apropos of Movies, Go Nuts for Donuts, and another game of Monkey Palace, this time with all 4 of us. Only one more night of #spielmas remains, and with some friends coming over for New Year’s Eve festivities, it should be a good time. Day 4 of @spielmas.bsky.social is upon us and I had a chance to sit down and learn Monkey Palace, a game that utilizes Lego for components. The rulebook was a little difficult for us to parse, but the @watchitplayed.tv video on YouTube is excellent and answered all our questions. Day 2 of @spielmas.bsky.social was celebrated with Nusfjord and Nova Luna, two of my favorite Uwe Rosenberg games. I first learned about SpielMas while attending a virtual Nova Luna game with @haoleboygames.bsky.social back in 2020, so this felt like a nice return to the festival’s roots for me. ⛄️ We celebrated the first day of @spielmas.bsky.social by revisiting the classic real-time dice game Escape: The Curse of the Temple. My wife and both my daughters made it out alive while I got stuck a few tiles away from the exit. #boardgames
