I don't mind playing it once in a blue moon but you have to be detached from the results emotionally. It's too random. So you just use it as a vehicle to be social in a nerdy way I guess. Not much of a game.
I'm with Moe Tousignant. I refuse to play Diplomacy anymore. If I really want that sort of "fun", I'll try out for Survivor or Big Brother, and at least try for a cash prize...
Ian Reilly I've had that experience. I sit there and watch them and think ... if this is what it means to be into geek fantasy stuff, maybe I need to rethink my choices in life. ha ha.
monopoly is that game for me. someone could probably make a better game out of it by adding some sort of arsonist or contract killer mechanic to it by augmenting chance and community chest, or if you land on baltic or mediterranean where the hit men and arsonists live.
I have to say, I really don't hate the board game tracker - I thought it was a gimic until I used it - it is actually more useful than everyone having their own D10 or D20.
I'll snag this later. The first one was a lot of fun. Originally shared by Android Central Publisher Paradox Interactive has released Knights of Pen & Paper 2 for Android. Fans of table-top RPGs can once again get the full experience on a mobile device. We got a chance to play an early version of this game in March at GDC 2015, and now Knights of Pen & Paper 2 is available for… #android http://www.androidcentral.com/knights-pen-paper-2-brings-role-playing-and-satire-together-android
Okay, Hotline Miami , killing a dude by dumping a pot full of boiling water on his face? Awesome. I still suck at this game though. I'm not twitchy enough.
I thought Monopoly was the big relationship destroyer.

ReplyDeleteFor some reason my nerd friends really like it but while we play I really don't like them
ReplyDeleteMy feelings on this game should be obvious.

ReplyDeleteA nice, friendly game to enjoy with your half-price Applebee's apps, Stephen Holowczyk?
