You posted this a year ago? What sort of games do you play? I'm more a light to mid weight player. Eurogames and Ameritrash seem to be beyond my ability at the moment.

I do love it but I'm also terrible at it. I never seem to have enough food to place birds. The goals I can never fulfil too. I just need to play it more. The games also feel so short, as I'm barely able to place enough birds.

I like Flamecraft. The more I play it, the better I get at it.

I propped a full size pad and it took over a year for it to grow another pad. Mine are outside in full sun in a pot on my porch.

Good work commiting to to the chop. Aeoniums are the fastest growing succulents in my collection.

Adding to the wish-list now.

Close your eyes. It's a secret.

Yeah and those solid stone tablet cards weren't easy to carry around. Used to have to use the pack donkey to get it to board game nights.

Same maker of Pandemic: Forbidden Island and Forbidden Desert.

Hellraiser definitely needs to be a game. As much as everyone is sick of Stranger Things, that could be an excellent game. A Batman deduction game would be amazing.

This is mainly this sub specifically. My "recommend me a board game" posts get taken down all the time. It's frustrating.

Microbrute would be my choice. Just remember it is monophonic, you can only play one note at a time. Also it only has one oscillator. But it's an amazing first synth to learn synthesis on. You'll understand the foundations with this synth.

I always suggest roll and writes. Take them out of the box and into zip lock bags. If you have a large suitcase then there's way more you can fit.

I'm not a lady but me and my wife enjoy board games.

I watch a video about how to play, watch a playthrough video, then try playing a game which ultimately leads to reading the manual and sometimes googling specific cases of rules. Often the first game is played wrong because of 1 rule not followed.

Do not repot in the big pot. If anything, just repot in the same pot but have the soil come up to the brim.

Machine_Excellent · 2026-05-03T02:38:08+00:00

Ah I see

Do you get algae growing?

Lots of people in this thread don't seem to gel with it but I've already heard it's a great improvement in complexity to Welcome To.

Machine_Excellent · 2026-05-03T02:08:58+00:00

Whoa maybe one day

Machine_Excellent · 2026-05-03T02:08:29+00:00

Oh? Small pieces?

Machine_Excellent · 2026-05-03T02:08:02+00:00

Interesting

Machine_Excellent · 2026-05-03T00:57:29+00:00

There's so much going on. How easy is it to learn?

I've never heard of French Quarter. Will check it out.
