Game nights:
What's a card or board game that goes quickly? Scrabble took too long for four people. We love it but what are some easy to learn games that will finish more quickly?

    Dreamt I was playing letter jam. I put together the word BIRD for my teammate and then remembered I was supposed to make a five-letter word, so I put BIRD back in my stack of letter cards to find a different word. Then upon looking through them again to make a new word, the first letter I saw was E, so I went, oh, I can just make BRIDE. But then I couldn’t find the letters for BIRD again in the stack (because text changes in dreams). . (Yes, I can read in dreams. And do anagrams apparently )

      I’ve never done a or made a . At this point in history, it must be pretty well known. Anyone have pointers to companies to use to produce one? I only need a game board, printed cards, player score sheets, and printed instructions. (No dice, no figurines, no complex things)

      I have an idea I want to create. I’m open to suggestions and boosts.

          Can’t get enough World Cup? Why not simulate a match at the table?

                Played a new game tonight - Reforest. Heard about this one on the podcast Board Game Hot Takes, where they compared it to Forest Shuffle and it came out on top. Very easy to learn, but also lots of layers and depth to it. Not sure that I personally like it better than Forest Shuffle, but I’m 100% on board with nature-themed games so I’m glad we picked up a copy.

                Front cover of Reforest (subtitle: plants of the Pacific Northwest coast). The game box is roughly the size of a deck of cards.

                My forest tableau, with two layers of plants with cards stacked on top of each other. I got an elk to come & visit my forest.

                  I'm kind of sad that Button Shy Games is moving away from their wallet games.

                    TABLERO DE YINZER

                    Game devs, drop the keyboard and play this drinking game. Then continue coding to experience real vibe coding.

                    [copypasta]

                    Tablero de Yinzer is based on Tablero da Gucci, which in turn is based, allegedly, on a gambling game called Tablero de Jesus. Tablero de Yinzer is the version Tablero da Gucci played in Pittsburgh, as adapted by members of Obscure Games Pittsburgh.
