Woo! Three reviews in one week. Thanks Gameological 2.0!

Backgammon board or baccarat cards?

So what you're saying is that you are looking for a….

The way I feel about this game, and The Sims more generally, is represented by the man's face in the header image attached to this article.

I've seen footage of it.

Just played Act III and found this analysis to be spot on. It wasn't mentioned, but I also saw it in the analogy about the old trees hanging on for too long and choking out new growth. Ouch.

I can't imagine any euro or nerdier style games getting adapted. Heck, I was even surprised to see Pictureka! up there. But if I had to guess which game could survive the adaptation, it would be Twilight Struggle. How sweet would it be to watch two players battle it out with crazy production values behind them, a la

I hope you find the super secret ending.

Did anyone else get the sense that Fibbage seems like an online game of Balderdash? This sits well with me as I love Balderdsah.

It's a fun game, although some people don't like combat. Still, with many paths to win and different starting civilizations, it can make for a good time if you have 2 to 4 hours.

A trivia based dungeon crawler sounds amazing. I'm surprised this doesn't exist if it doesn't already.
