Check out my (Bill's) top 5 party games! This isn't an exhaustive list, but rather the party games that are really hitting for me with larger groups right now!

What we've been playing the last week... See any of your favorites?

It is with profound sadness that we at CATAN Studio acknowledge the passing of Klaus Teuber, legendary game designer and creator of the beloved board game CATAN. Our hearts go out to Klaus' family during this incredibly difficult time.

@boardgamesjames Language learning. It's a lifelong passion!

I love this. Open those borders! Even better would be a clear path to citizenship for any who want. While we're at it, let's keep those doors wide open for Yemeni, Syrian and Palestinian refugees with the exact same provisions and benefits.

@WeirdGiraffes Chai. Dollars to Donuts. Maglev Metro. All great!

Alright friends, it's time for that weekly checkin! What games were you able to play this past weekend? Did you find a new favorite? ⁠ ⁠ #boardgames

Just picked up Maglev Metro by @beziergames yesterday! Super excited to get this to the table. Any of you play this yet? Thoughts?

@WeirdGiraffes We played it several times at 2 player and really enjoyed it! Plays quickly and is fairly easy to teach. Good strategic choices and a lot of fun. We also got the playmat and I can't imagine playing without it. Haven't tried the expansion yet though.

Let's hear about your experiences with Studies in Sorcery! How have you been liking it? Did you get to play it yet? ⁠ ⁠ #boardgames

@eric_lang Studies in Sorcery by @WeirdGiraffes is great. Smallish, ready to learn, plays quick. I'm sure you've played Furnace by @ArcaneWonders , but if you haven't it's amazing. Cascadia is also excellent.

Recommend a hot new game for me to play at BGG Con today! I am compelled by short, unique/quirky, easy teach, and not too brain burning. (I'm sure the latest 2 hour+ worker placement maximum-agonizing-decisions-per-minute game is very clever, but I'm not in that headspace)

@WeirdGiraffes @WeirdGiraffes , we've been looking forward to it ever since you teased it on our podcast a couple years ago! With the wait! Lol.

@Roastedgames1 So glad you enjoyed it!

Studies in Sorcery from @WeirdGiraffes arrived today so of course we had to play it right away. So fun! Simple to learn but deceptively deep. Played great at 2. Can't wait to try it solo! Btw, the playmat was so worth it. #boardgames #kickstarter #tabletopgames

@WeirdGiraffes @FFGames Dune Imperium!

Elder Sign from @FFGames is a co-op game where you're rolling dice in order to push back the Elder Gods and their cultists. What is your favorite game that is based on literature? #boardgames

@HungryScribbler Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory...

What movie traumatized you as a kid?

This just arrived today! Can't wait to dig into Marvel United: X-Men by @CMONGames #boardgames #marvelunited #marvel

These just arrived yesterday! So excited to get them to the table! Only played Whistle Mountain so far by @czechgames . Spoiler! It's amazing. #boardgames #tabletopgaming

Definitely looking forward to this! @RestorationGame ? Yes please!
