More gaming with nearby friends.
We started with
Beez, a remarkably
thinky positional game. Your bee on the main board has a maximum of
nine hexes to which it can move, at different distances in different
directions.
You're trying to collect nectar markers of various colours, and the
rows in which you can place them on your home board depend on how far
you've moved to get them. I was just about starting to get the hang of
this by the end of the game.
Then we played
VOLT, in the Tokyo
arena. The final point of the game came down to a matter of sequencing
tiles. and as always I had a great time. I ought to get this out more.
And paint at least the mini bases (each one has a matching coloured
set of screen and other bits).
Finally, an introductory game of Snapshot: Wildlife
Photographer.
This suffers from a rulebook that's slightly out of order and makes
things seem more complicated than they are, but I think it has
potential, and we'll definitely try this one again.
