GOTW: Ladies and Gentleman
Like most games we’ve played in class, this one was a little confusing at the beginning. It was hard to understand what the aim of the game was and what I had to do in my role as a “lady”. The people at my table relied on each other to understand the next steps and…

This week we played ladies and gentlemen. I feel like my brother and his fiancée would find the game interesting.

Ladies & Gentlemen: Insights From A Lovely Lady
Ladies and Gentlemen was overall a pretty fun game, I thought I would really suck at it but it was pretty decent. I would like to play the game again and see if there’s more to it because I feel like I didn’t fully understand the whole strategy aspect of the game. As playing the…
