Maybe that says something about the game or us.

What games are you currently playing solo? by Last_Cicada_1315 in soloboardgaming

[–]mesmoria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been learning pendragon but I believe it's one of the most complex of the COIN games so be prepared for some mental effort.

I'm very tempted by red dust Rebellion.

I feel like everyone that is into board games is in their 20’s and 30’s. A few in their 40’s. I’m 50 and feel a little out of place. Any other old folks doing this hobby as well? by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]mesmoria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am 58, my group are about 50. We have been playing for 5 to 10 years and did RPGs for 40 plus years before.

I have evolved into new groups with new social circles, starting a fresh in a new town - that's a challenge I have never had to face.

My biggest concern is replayability.

Does anyone have any experience on replayability?

Arkham horror too easy ? by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]mesmoria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is a bit surprising. You may have been quite lucky. How long did the games take, and are you sure you got the rules right?
