jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 27/10/2025First training session of „Deep Space Dine“ which I brought back from Essen. Super compact sci-fi „puzzle“ with a lot of interesting decisions. 031
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 26/10/2025The first game I played from my loot this year was Reiner Knizia‘s „Merchants of Andromeda“ and he still doesn’t fail. Amazing game! @allplay.bsky.social 010
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 03/10/2025Played some „The Voyages of Marco Polo“ tonight and yes, it’s the first „edition“ (haven’t actually played part 2 yet). Are you still playing it? 010
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 29/09/2025Are you still playing Knizia‘s „The Lord of the Rings“? I still do and heavily enjoy it! 020
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 26/09/2025Played some „Ora et Labora“ the other night (the French side, even though I barely got any wine). This game still very much holds up - super enjoyable! 010
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 31/05/2025Something cool is coming and I was able to give it a try! @gmtgames.bsky.social 1123
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 25/04/2025Played some „SpaceCorp“ yesterday and it’s simply amazing! So far I only played the solo game but I really like the human competition with some of the interaction/interference. Really outstanding! @gmtgames.bsky.social 010
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 18/04/2025Played the original „Caylus“ after years of not playing it and it still very much holds up! The designer (William) was playing „Shogun“ at the neighboring table by the way 🫣 Definitely one of the meaner euro-/workerplacement games out there. 010
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 24/03/2025Played my first training session of „The Adventures of Conan“ trying out the official solo mode. A bit bumpy but I do see very good potential here! @galeforcenine.bsky.social 020
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 16/03/2025Played another session of „7 Wonders: Architects“ with the little one. It’s really a perfect family game, which allows you to start playing right out of the box. @reposproduction.bsky.social #boardgames 050
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 18/02/2025Ok - I have to confess that the Solo-Pachisi (For One: Mensch ärgere dich nicht) is not easy… Interesting dice puzzler. 120
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 14/02/2025Yesterday’s game night was only one game: „Bier Pioniere“ and I really enjoyed this one; even though it went a tad too long for what it is. Pretty sure we can decrease the game time significantly when playing again soon though. 010
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 07/02/2025Finally we were able to continue our Thursday game night (our regular venue had some technical issues for quite a while) but we almost had 20 gamers joining us, so we had some great games on the various tables. I enjoyed „7 Empires“ and „Foundations of Metropolis“ - and actually won them both 🫣 030
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 02/02/2025It’s time to finish my solo playthrough of „Village“. The official solo mode comes with the beautiful „Big Box“ (at least I like it very much) by the way. #boardgameyoutu.beLet's play Village: Big Box - Solo - Part 2 (The End)YouTube video by jPlay 050
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 29/01/2025Really need to try „Paupers Ladder“. Let me know if I‘m missing out :) 110
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 24/01/2025Wondering what this might be… 🤔🫣🤭 @chiptheorygames.bsky.social 010
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 19/01/2025Tonight I am starting my solo playthrough of „Village“ - of course using the stuff from the „Big Box“. Let's play Village: Big Box - Solo - Part 1 youtu.be/KxQTr450Qz4youtu.beLet's play Village: Big Box - Solo - Part 1YouTube video by jPlay 010
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 17/01/2025Finally pulled the trigger and got myself the big box of „Village“. Anyone tried the solo mode yet? 000
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 13/01/2025„Zombie Teenz Evolution“ is a great way to introduce the Little One to the „Legacy“ genre! She literally couldn’t wait to open the second envelope after the first one! 🤭 010
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 05/01/2025Today I was doing my first learning session of „Neon Hope“ where Cyberpunk meets the AHLCG (at least some mechanics feel remotely familiar). The publisher kindly provided a preview copy - the campaign will most like launch sometime in March on Kickstarter. @hopefulgames.bsky.social 142
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 29/12/2024We hosted a small game night yesterday and one of my favorite games came up: „Sheriff of Nottingham“. I didn’t do particularly well though… 🫣 #boardgames 050
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 23/12/2024Now that it’s here, I am quite happy I decided to also get the wooden box 🫣 @ulible.bsky.social 151
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 21/12/2024Played some „My Village“ tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it! Nice twist on the original „Village“! 010
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 20/12/2024I was so ready start recording my first quest in „League of Dungeoneers“ and then my camera failed me… Hopefully I can pick things up soon! 010
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 06/12/2024Played a full 4-player-session of „War of the Ring: the Card Game“ and it’s really amazing how thematic this one is. Imagine the inner dialogue here between Smeagol on one side and Gollum on the other! So cool! #boardgames 140
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 02/12/2024Guess the Game! This one should be relatively easy to figure out, but I always appreciate wrong-creative answers ;-) In case you are wondering: this was Stable Diffusion (Flux Dev) fed with a quite high level description of a board game. #boardgames #brettspiele #guessthegame 130
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 29/11/2024Stil heavily enjoying „Bruges“. Originally we planned on playing something else, but this was a perfect backup! 000
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 25/11/2024Played some „Rocketmen“ the other day and included the „Target: Jupiter“ expansion. Really cool what they added and/or changed. @phalanxgames.bsky.social 041
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 04/08/2024Not sure if I should play „Deadly Dowagers“ with my wife and she may have enjoyed the game way too much… 🫣🤭 000
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 19/07/2024Who else is still enjoying „Maracaibo“? We just played it the other night again and it was still amazing! 010
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 02/07/2024Guess the Game! Again the mighty AI generated an image based on a high level description of a - more or less - popular but rather abstract game. Can you guess it? #boardgames 100
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 14/06/2024Do you like to play auction games? Somehow there seems no grey in this mechanic - you either love or hate it. Do you have a favorite game? Yesterday we played „Nightmare Productions“ again - it‘s not my number one but definitely close ;-) 000
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 03/06/2024A tribute to CATAN #boardgames youtube.com/shorts/npFue...youtube.comA tribute to CATAN #boardgamesA short tribute to the board game CATAN, a lost grand game designer and how it affected the board game world in many great ways.Song was done by Suno, lyrics... 110
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 01/06/2024Oh - that‘s a very nice guess! Unfortunately not the right one, but should get a bonus point ;) 000
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 31/05/2024Guess the (board) game! Again I asked the mighty to produce an image based on a high level description of a board gsme. Any ideas? #boardgames 200
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 20/05/2024Started my playthrough of „Buffy the Vampire Slayer“ on the channel. Really such a fun game! #buffythevampireslayer #boardgames 010
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 19/05/2024What‘s your favorite Rosenberg title, if any? Mine’s still „Agricola“ :) 010
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 13/05/2024Guess the (board) game! This one came out of the AI just nicely, only some minor refinements so they didn’t look like super models ;) #boardgames 110
jPlay @jplay.bsky.social · 12/05/2024Good guess and it’s also a Rosenberg title with a Viking theme though ;) 110
