  • Week 3 – D&D

    This week we had a chance to continue played D&D from what we left last week. The overall process still running very well, since for two weeks practices I am very familiar with the rules and my spells. And I have a better experience with D&D since I have a better understanding of my strength…

  • Ladies and Gentlemen – Reflection 6

    This week we played Ladies and Gentlemen. Honestly, it did not go as smoothly as I would have pictured. Tabletop Simulator made it difficult with all the moving pieces and we had a member drop out in the beginning, who was my partner. I decided to take the role of a gentlemen, simply because I…

  • Game of the Week Blog Reflection 6: Free Play Week 1

    NOTE: I was absent this week and did not participate in any gameplay.

  • Game of the Week Blog Reflection 5: Incan Gold and Can’t Stop

    NOTE: I was absent from this week and did not play either game.

  • Week 4 (Can’t Stop)

    In the fourth week of class we were scheduled to play the games Can’t Stop and Incan Gold. Unfortunately during the class period my group was unable to play Incan Gold. Fortunately Can’t Stop was really fun to play and had lots of interesting mechanics for a game that broadly looks pretty simple. In Can’t…

  • Week 2 and 3 (Fiasco)

    In the second and third weeks of playing games in class we played a game called Fiasco. This game is all about story telling and interacting with other people. In Fiasco players tell a story through scenes where they interact with other players. The players interactions are based upon the setting in which they inhabit…

  • Week 3 – D&D

    This weeks game play went well. We were missing one of our players, but things ran smoothly still. It was interesting because we have the chance to explore a town, which we hadn’t gotten to do the last 2 times. It made me realize the amount of freedom one has in the game and how…

  • D&D Week 2

    This week, we continue to play D&D from what we left last week. I thought this week the process went much more smoother and exciting than last week. Since most of our group members are very familiar with the rules and spells now. For me, I think I have a better experience with D&D compare…

  • D&D Week 2

    This week we played D&D again, continuing our game from last week. I thought this weeks game play went even smoother than last week. We defeated Cleric together as a team, which made us all work together. I had a better time this week as I began to understand a lot more of the rules…

  • Incan Gold & Can’t Stop

    In the fifth week of class, we played a pair of risk taking games, Can’t Stop and Incan Gold. Both games allowed for an interesting risk-reward system. From a mechanical stand-point, I would say both games incentivized risk taking much more than playing it safe, and while both approaches were certainly valid, there seemed to…
