Blokus |
Stephan Reebs
|
A 5-square piece left for Stephan, who in fact cheated and so it should be a 5-square and a 4-square pieces, still good enough to win ahead of second place Kevin and his 11 squares left. |
Heat: Pedal to the Metal |
Pascal Werlberger
|
7 squares past the finish line for Pascal, on the Italy track. What is it with those electric car owners winning all the races? |

PASK. Mike is in Bonaire, and Ian is still in quarantine. We talk about Trump and the tariffs he announced today. Then we play a new racing game: Heat.

Played at Kevin's place.
KSPM. It’s Kevin’s birthday next Sunday, so we go for supper at the Tide & Boar to celebrate, and then to his place for birthday cake and some games.

Sagrada |
Pascal Werlberger
|
Kevin’s friend Paul joins us, and so we play the 5-player expansion of Sagrada. Pascal leads or co-leads in all categories and he wins handily with 65 points, 15 more than second-place Stephan. |
Trans Europa |
Kevin Caron
|
Only two rounds because of a disastrous score for Pascal in the second one. Birthday boy Kevin does well with only one connection missing overall, one less than second-place Stephan. |

MSPK. We give Ark Nova another go, starting higher on the appeal score track to make the game shorter, which does not prevent us from ending as late as 10:45 h.

Mike Gerdov

Mike builds a kids-friendly petting zoo, filled with peaceful herbivores. He leads from beginning to end, winning with a score of +8. Closest to him is Pascal at -1. |

PMS. Us three hearty souls tackle Ark Nova for the first time, under the guidance of Pascal who has played the game online before.

Mike Gerdov, Pascal Werlberger, Stephan Reebs

We stop after 2.5 h, about two-thirds through, at which point Mike leads on track A but is last on track B, Pascal leads on track B but is last on track A, and Stephan is between the two. Everybody’s a winner (reward for learning a new game). |
