ON OUR TABLES:
Lost Cities (Tim led) 1999 2-player Knizia card game. Current version has 6th expedition and double-sided board (5 on one side, 6 on the other) 
Cribbage (Mike led) I own 2 cribbage boards but hadn’t ever played this classic 1630 card game that uses a pegboard for scoring. I could have used the player aid on BGG for the melding/scoring.
Star Realms – 2x (Sean led) 2-player 2014 deck builder for spaceships (with many expansions available).
Regicide (Tim led) 2020 multi-player fantasy co-op card game – defeat 12 powerful enemies using a standard 52 card deck of playing cards..
Streets (Armando led) 2021 city building, tile laying with influence. As each street is completed, the people on it will move to new buildings that interest them – hopefully one of your buildings in an up-and-coming street. To earn the most money and win the game you need to manage your limited investment funds cleverly, planning ahead while keeping your mind open to fresh opportunities.
Raiders of the North Sea (Amy led) 2015 worker placement in the Viking age.
Circular Reasoning (Mike led) 2015 abstract strategy game. Mensa Select winner in 2016.
Completto (K-ban led) 2015 German import. Race to complete your 22-tile row of wooden numbered tiles in ascending order.
The Night Cage (Armando led) 2021 fully co-operative, horror-themed tile-placement game that traps 1-5 lost souls within an unnatural labyrinth of eternal darkness. To win, players must each collect a key, find a gate, and escape as a group.
Crusaders (Sean led) 2018 worker placement game that uses a combination of rondel and mancala mechanisms. Each player has their own rondel, which they can upgrade over the course of the game, that controls their action choices during the game. Your faction gives you a special power to control your rondel, and the buildings you erect will help you form a strategy.
Switch and Signal (k-ban led) 2020 2-4 player co-op puzzle train game. Pick-up and deliver 8 goods cubes in 4 different colors to the destination city (Marseilles on Europe map, NY & SF on the North America flip side). Move trains, set switches and signals in a tense race against the game’s timing mechanic. WE WON (by one card) 3-handed !
