I find it hilarious how triggered some people are by Finspan, the new Stonemaier game. My wife and I love Wingspan but Wyrmspan didn't appeal to us (not into dragons). Looking forward to the new game. 🐟🐠🐡 #finspan #stonemaiergames #wingspan

Last competition win of 2024 has arrived. It's four games in the Masters of Crime series - Vendetta, Incognito, Shadows, Rapture. They are cooperative deductive murder mystery games where players must solve puzzles, follow clues and make decisions to solve a case.

Not sure that blocking the chef of tomorrow's Christmas dinner (my wife) while playing Ticket to Ride: Korea was the wisest thing to do. Wife 125, Daughter 133, Me 168. 🚂🚅🚝

It's that time of year when I have the house to myself and watch my favourite Norwegian Christmas rom-com, followed by a sort of follow up (different characters but many of the same actors). #hjemtiljul #astormforchristmas

Mostly Norwegian (Bokmål) but some French and Danish too. #duolingo

Spotify Wrapped is out and it confirms The Chime School as my new favourite band. Cousin Norman, by hot new band Marmalade, was my most played song. My summer Yacht Rock phase didn't affect my Top 5. 🛥️ #nothingifnoteclectic #spotifywrapped

More games to the table on Saturday as we continue to attempt to play every game we have in one year. Jokkmokk and the Africa edition of Mapominoes. I lost both.
