Quote from: jungleboy on May 01, 2017, 10:24:23 AMI consider my interest in board games to be an extension of my life interests in things like history/travel/culture. I like to ask the question: what do you do in this game? If the answer is something like: you build a medieval landscape and claim features on it (Carcassonne), that sounds like a game I'd like to play. That's still the first thing I like to know about a game before I even get into how it plays. Is that reasonable?I think that makes perfect sense! It's often rewarding being constructive in game.

I usually rate mechanics ahead of theme; which is why I love abstract games so much.
For some reason, I think building a pyramid might take a lot more than 3-stone and 2-paper.
We've been discussing it 3 times already - welcome to the party!I requested Phantom meeple, prior to it starting, but it seems to have fallen on deaf ears. Good luck
One for you here jungleboy:Morels is a fungi set collection game. I was just recommended it because it's a bit like Jaipur but a little deeper.
Unfortunately fungi isnt compatible with the expansion. But there's one set of handmade wooden sticks and frying pans still available!
