Board games evening in our living room

Another board games evening, this time at our place. There were sixteen of us this time, so we split into three games, two on the big dining table and one around the coffee table. The games played this time were:

• Spank the Monkey, which lasted very long
• Citadels, an old favourite which we hadn’t played in a long time
• Karibik, one Scott bought in Essen
• The Gardens of Alhambra, again from Essen
• Funkenschlag, this lasted over 2 hours!
• Geschenkt ist noch zu teuer”, a short game with a long name
• Da Vinci Code, another short game
• Der Ausreisser, “Race Leader”, another short game

Spank the monkey

Stu, Michael, Eve & Markus playing Spank the Monkey. This game is often over very quickly, but this time it just went on and on. Then I dynamited the missile, returning the game to the start, and Michael won very quickly.

Karibik

Anne, Séverine, Mari & Markku playing Karibik. A rather pretty game. Was it any good?

Funkenschlag (Power Grid)

Scott, Iris & Michael playing Funkenschlag. This was the game that lasted over two hours…
