Crokinole 6x (led by Tony/Ethan/Tim) 1876 traditional Canadian flicking game for 2 or 4. Thanks Ethan and Tony for bringing their sets plus folding tables….they received much use.

Loopin’ Louie

(group led) 1992 mass market dexterity game. A battery operated biplane is used to knock down your opponent’s chicken tokens. He’s Just Plane Outta Control !!!

Blokus

2x (led by Sandy/Ethan) 2000 abstract strategy game with transparent, Tetris-shaped, colored pieces that players are trying to play onto the board. The only caveat to placing a piece is that it may not lie adjacent to your other pieces, but instead must be placed touching at least one corner of your pieces already on the board. The goal to fit as many of your 21 pieces on the board as possible.

Dice Miner

2x (led by Sean) 2021 dice drafting game played in 3 rounds, where custom dice are rolled onto the 3D plastic mountain. Players are Dwarf heros, drafting dice for their hoards. Scores are tallied after each round before you re-roll your dice and the mountain is refilled. The game is about drafting the dice you covet, adding them to your hoard, and pushing your luck to build massive combos and score as many points as you can.

Take It Easy/Hextension

(led by Sandy) Peter Burley’s 1983 bingo-like puzzle tile game. Score the most points for the same shared call.

Just One

(led by Ethan and Sandy) 2018 co-op clue giving/guessing game. 10 of a possible 13 for the good guys.

Fun Facts

(group led) 2022 SdJ finalist, place answers to questions (that can only be answered with numbers) in ascending for a group score.

Heat: Pedal to the Metal

(led by K-ban) 2022 Golden Geek Medium Game of the Year winner. Control your speed by clever card hand management. Exceed limits and gain onerous HEAT cards that will clog up your hand. Stress cards allow one to push your luck but at the risk of spinning out. A unique and fascinating car racing game, currently rated 8.2 on BGG. We’re trying to get as many familiar with the core game rules so we can add advanced features for future racing. 

Concordia

(led by Tim) 2013 peaceful strategy game of economic development in Roman times – rated 8.1 by BGG users. It is a strategy game that requires advance planning and consideration of your opponent’s moves. Every game is different, not only because of the sequence of new cards on sale but also due to the modular layout of cities. When all cards have been sold or after the first player builds his 15th house, the game ends. The player with the most VPs from the gods (Jupiter, Saturnus, Mercurius, Minerva, Vesta, etc.) wins the game.
