KSIPAM. Kevin brings Exit: The Game, a recent nominee for Spiel des Jahres. It is an Escape Room type of game, to be played only once. When you solve a puzzle, it is rather gratifying, but it can be frustrating to get there. We were sometimes sloppy in our execution, perhaps stressed by the goal of completing the game as quickly as possible (which we did not, clocking in at 2 h and 15 min). It would be more enjoyable to just be zen about it and enjoy the ride, rather than try to get a good score, time-wise. Also, 6 players is too large a number: too many people have to read the clues upside down, there's only one book to go around, you don't know what's going on at the other end of the table, etc. I reckon 3 players would be best. Finally, that box inset puzzle was deviously tricky.

Pascal Werlberger

Mike thinks he's playing Perudo and keeps rolling ones, including twice in a row when all he needed was two or better. Kevin gets the bloodied axe bonus, but in the end it comes down to a close race between saga winners Ian and Pascal, with Pascal finally prevailing with 156 points.

Welcome back Carlo! You dudoed 7 sixes (slightly above average) and it turns out there were 15 of them! And welcome back Mike: you win the final one-vs-one showdown against Ian. |
