Kites

(led by K-ban) 2022 card game where 5 kites are represented by sand-timers (with different time lengths) A frantic co-op as gamers try to keep all 6 kites (there’s a neutral white timer/kit too). We were inept on the first two rounds but got to less than 6 cards remaining on our 3rd try. A fun opener or closer.

Velomino

(led by K-ban) 2020 French climbing card game on bicycle racing that releases in the USA in February 2023. Climbing (or shedding) card games have, as their goal, to be the first to get rid of their entire hand of cards. Less complicated than SdJ finalist, SCOUT, but still fun to play. Game consists of 5 races with points scored by multiplying the round by the number of players remaining in the game after you shed your cards.

Downtown Farmers Market

(led by K-ban) 2022 tile-drafting puzzle game with 8 different goal cards to determine points earned. Can you manage to score with all 8 goals or go after the more difficult higher scoring goals? Interesting tile drafting mechanic when playing with 2 or 3 players as the start player gets to discard one tile after picking their tile resulting in groans from the next player in order.

Qwinto

(led by K-ban) 2015 roll & write with just 3 different colored d6 and a score sheet. Multiple ways to score points with the player on turn deciding how many (and which) dice to roll with only one reroll allowed..
