Decorum Game of The Week
I thoroughly enjoyed playing Decorum. I have not played many board games that had similar premises to this one. In this game the players are decorating a house together. Each player has specific design objectives they must reach and together the team must create a space that satisfies the needs of everyone. Rather than stating…

Fiasco! Conclusion
This week we finished our game of Fiasco! Once again the hardest part was getting the act started, but once we began the scenes flew by. Our scene pace was much faster in the second act, as we began to resolve the conflicts. This act was far more action packed and full of twists and…

Fiasco Week 1 Review
We played the role playing game: Fiasco. My group chose to play the Ice edition, however there are different “playsets” or settings to choose from. This game relies heavily on character building and player decision making. As is the case with many role playing games, the hardest part was actually getting started. When reading through…

Blood on the Clock Tower
Happy Halloween! In this spooky night, we played Blood on the Clock Tower. There was around 13 players; 4 knew how to play and the rest did not. I was one of the few who did not know how to play, and I also happened to be the town drunk, which did not help me…

Ladies & Gentlemen
In class, we played Ladies & Gentlemen, and I chose to be a gentleman (I brought a fake mustache and everything). The concept of the game was different for the ladies and gentlemen. For the gentlemen, our goal was to earn enough money to purchase lovely items for our wives/the ladies. The ladies role was…

This week we played decorum, a game about cooperation with interior designing. It was a very fun game. I played with one other person, and we worked together to find the right balance for our rooms. We managed to go through 6 rounds; each round was a set of requirements we each had to fill…

Voices in my Head
This week we played voices in my head. It was a challenging but fun game where we all try to gain control of different parts of the brain. For the game, I was Selfishness. Which means that I wanted there to be equal or more innocent than there were guilty verdicts. Luckily, that is what…

Fiasco Week 2
On the fourth week of class, we finished up Fiasco. My group and I zoomed through it. We finished up the game in 45 minutes and spent the rest of the class time watching the other group play theirs. It was a very fun experience, and all our stories were hilarious. Our story ended with…

Fiasco Week 1
During the third week of class, we started playing Fiasco. This roleplaying game was my first time playing a roleplaying game before, so it was all new to me. I struggled a bit during the act, but that was primarily because I forgot to learn how to play 🙁 So I was winging it. But…

Ultimate Werewolf
In the first week of class, we played Ultimate Werewolf. I was already familiar with the game, but I have never played the physical version before. I used to play the game in my teen years on my phone with some random strangers. There were less characters, but I definitely remember a seer. No sorceress…
