This was a busy weekend for me racing againg the rain to build a shed but I still managed a game night on Friday and Saturday night. Friday was games with the folds we had a total of 8 people to play so we picked up Sushi Go! Party which was a big hit. We also did a round of TTR: Old West because it was requested and the one we default to for the 6 player limit. Half of the people had played the original TTR earlier that week for the first time so it was interesting to see the adjustments. The younger kids also had fun with Ice Cool. Saturday was a more mellow night of Scrabble and Catch Phrase. Tonight will be one more game night but only 4-5 people will be here and Catan and Villainous are on the docket.

What did everyone else bring to the table? We are looking to add TTR India into the mix for some more variety since everyone can't seem to get enough TTR but we don't want it to get stale.

I had a fun time with a friend visiting and got to play Decrypto and Ice Cool!

Its the weekend and that means time for board games. I have both nights booked with a group of 6 tonight and 4 tomorrow. Tonight we are having a cookout with 3 racks of ribs and sides then we are getting into:

• Nertz
• Ticket to Ride Old West
• Sushi Go!

Nertz is because my sister heard of the game Dutch Blitz which is a themed retail version and wants to try it out plus you can work in 6 people if you just use playing cards. Old West board for TTR for the same reason and Sushi Go! because its light and fun.

Sunday night line up is going to be:

• Villianous
• Ice Cool
• Forbidden Island

Villianous is one I have had my eye on for a while and figured it would be a good fit for a lighter game. If its a fun one I have my eyes set on the expansion now that its out. Ice Cool should be fun after corned beef and a couple of drinks. What is everyone else playing this weekend?
