Let's Play a Game! A place to discuss all things board game, regardless of genre. Everything from Scrabble and Catan to Ark Nova, 1830 and beyond is fair game! That means we have blackjack. Bring your own hookers, sorry.

Rules:

  1. Play nicely with others here.
  2. Discussion should be at least somewhat related to board games and all that entails.
  3. Self-promotion is allowed within reason. Don't go overboard!

Those Azul bricks man, they feel fantastic. I kind of love the way my Quacks from Quedlingburg looks with the printed add ons and custom baggies:

But Sagrada takes the crown for looks I think:

Chinese Checkers

Grape Escape sucked as a game, but the Play-Doh that came with it sure did smell good and look pretty delicious once you pressed your player pieces out.

King of Tokyo’s energy cubes have always looked delicious.

If you're a monster snacking on radioactive waste, I agree wholeheartedly!

Scrabble tiles have always looked weirdly edible to me.
