My lovely friends got me some gift cards for my birthday, and naturally, I spent a chunk of them on new board games. The conversations mostly went like this — friend tells me that he/she wants to get me a board game but didn’t know which one I already had, so he/she opted for gift cards. Yay!
I recently played Trajan a couple of times, and I’ll admit it … it’s pretty fantastic. It’s a Stefan Feld game, and, honestly, I don’t have much experience with his games, as my favorite board-game designer is Uwe Rosenberg. I feel like serious board-gamers have their go-to guy who they’re just obsessed with: Rosenberg, Feld and Bruno Cathala, who designed Five Tribes.
Anyway, before we start talking about Trajan, I’ve entered a board-game contest with Passport Game Studios. Please vote for my photo; the contest ends at April 29, 2016, at midnight. Vote here through this link. Thanks, friends!
