After playing Heat: Pedal to the Metal last week we broke out the classic Formula De again! While Heat is decent, Formula De is my true racing love - I think it's more exciting and it has the advantage of having real tracks too! I always wanted to zip around the Nurburgring and I recently acquired it from my local boardgame cafe's library after they had a clear out!

It's a bit of a juggle playing two cars each and also two other pairs as "bots" (though we're really just playing them ourselves because even after all this time nobody seems to have come up with a decent bot system for Formula De) but it's a close race so far in the first lap. No disasters so far but we've had a few overshoots already! #boardgames #racing

Den gestrigen Feiertag genutzt und ausgiebig #Brettspiele auf der Terrasse gespielt. Am 30. April kam endlich #EndeavorTiefsee bei mir an, sodass wir es erstmalig spielen konnten. Bereits die 1. Runde machte Spaß, sodass wir gleich eine zweite Partie spielten. Der Ersteindruck ist überaus positiv und ich denke, dass wir lange daran Freude haben werden, da es sich bisher abwechslungsreich gestaltet. Danke @bundeskater das Du mir das Spiel ausdrücklich nahelegtest. 🙂👍

Das Foto zeigt einen Tisch auf dem ein Teil des Aufbaus des Brettspiels „Endeavor - Die Tiefsee“ zu sehen ist. Am unteren Bildrand liegt das Spielertableau, auf dem verschiedene Marker in verschiedenen Leisten bewegt werden. Darüber liegen kleine Spielkarten, welche die verschiedenen Crewmitglieder zeigen: Ökotoxikologin, Steuermann, Start-Crewmitglied, Unterwasser-Fotografin, Schiffstechnikerin, Aquakultur-Forscher. 
Am oberen Bildrand sind fünf große Karten zu sehen, welche die verschiedenen Tiefen des Meeres darstellen. Die oberste in einem hellen Blau bis runter zu fast gänzlich schwarz zur Symbolisierung der Tiefsee.

I don't consider myself super naive, but when the game publishers website I went to asked if I was 18+, I really did not think through what would happen when I clicked through.

Razzia & Grand National Derby

I played two simplified versions of classic Knizia games which I prefer to the originals - because sometimes less is more.

Razzia is Ra without disaster tiles and using cards. There have been a few versions with different art. I prefer this to full Ra as it's cheaper, smaller and nicer.

Grand National Derby was redeveloped as Colossal Arena and Equinox. I prefer this as there are no special abilities, which means it's faster to teach and play.

The last two evenings I got around to paint a little bit again. So I painted up another HeroQuest mini. I am not sure if it is finished it not. But that’s the progress for now. #Nerdlings #PaintingMiniatures #HeroQuest #Boardgames #wip

Played #boardgames in April. I mainly tried out some new things to see if they would be worth taking with me on my upcoming vacation.

e-Mission / Daybreak (2023)
4P; 110 min; gemeinschaftlich verloren
Sagrada (2017)
4P; 60 min; 66:57:50:56 🙂
e-Mission war Spaß und frustrierend zugleich. Wie im wahren Leben, ist der Ausbau Erneuerbarer zwar okay, aber bloß nicht an die Industrie gehen, was uns mit den Krisen das Kreuz brach. 3x waren Karten abzuwerfen, die Engines zerstörten - macht Sinn, aber das Spiel war kurz.
Am Ende noch eine Partie Sagrada, was einfach ein in jeder Hinsicht schönes Spiel ist.

Check out our thoughts on this Celtic themed card drafting game. It's a great mathy puzzle with a fun whimsical theme.

Am Tag der Arbeit eine Fahrradtour durch die Niederlande, wie @jansenspott und haben leckeres Softeis gefuttert. Wir beide haben #mennefer gespielt mit unterschiedlichen Ansichten (mein Lowlight).
Mein Highlight war #BrassBirmingham, dass er ich nach über 7 Monaten endlich mal wieder spielen konnte - und dass gleich 2 Mal! Auch gefallen: #endeavordeepsea. Leider im Zweierspiel versagt, trotzdem gut. Eigentlich nen super Monat! Gerne wieder 😉 #brettspiele #boardgames @board @brettspiele
