Today was Southern California Games Day 29 in Tujunga. So what games did I play?
- Ur. Interesting game. It took a while to figure out the mechanics, as well as the end-game. I lost.
- On The Underground. I like this game quite a bit; I haven’t figured out the best strategy yet. The strategy appears to be distinctly different in the 3 vs 5 player games.
- 10 Days in Europe. Good game, didn’t win. I really needed Switzerland.
- Carcassonne: The Castle. Good two player game. Alas, I came in last.
- Royal Turf. Interesting horse racing game. I played the original (dice) version. I don’t think I won, having made bad bets in the first race.
I was pleased that neo_tanuki made it out, at least for a little bit. Hopefully, he can make it to more events. The next gaming event is MY PC Gamesday (i.e., Stephanie’s Gamesday) at the Little White Chapel in Burbank on April 14. I might make it out to that… I have to check the calendar.
