Hi everyone, I thought I’d say hi in this new community as a new moderator. I’m Foon (she/her), and I love table top games. My partner and I have been gaming a lot in the past 5 years or so, and we have a bunch of friends that turned into boardgamers too, and boardgamers that we turned into friends. So on average we get almost a game a day in.

I’m excited to discuss all things tabletop gaming with you all. Some of my favourite games are Gloomhaven/Frosthaven, Spirit Island, Aeon’s End, Terraforming Mars.

What are y’all’s favourite games?

  • I remember hearing about it but the prospect of not being able to replay it turned me off. At least, that’s what I gleaned over the years. I vaguely recall someone posting a picture of them framing the board when they were done with the game (campaign?)

    Maybe I got the wrong impression? I suppose I should take another look-see.

    I haven’t played that much Pandemic, really, so the mechanics have yet to get old for us 😅

      I get that! I felt the same hesitation with “you can only play it 12-24 times and then never again, what?!” but honestly I’m so happy we took the plunge anyway. I don’t know about you, but many if not most games in my collection I haven’t even played that many times…

      That’s great! I mean, they’re good mechanics, so I’m glad you’re enjoying them. They just get recycled in all the other games lol.

        …I feel called out! 🤣 But you got a point there 😛 12-24 sessions is quite a bit too. I’ll look into it, thanks!
