I'm not a very compulsive buyer, but I did get my hands on a couple lighter games from smaller or foreign publishers. Looking forward to get them to the table.

Got Dune Imperium Uprising back to the table last night. Still having a lot of fun with it, but damn these worms are swingy. My friend got 5 (FIVE) VP from a single conflict, demolishing us in the process.

Played a game of Kutna Hora for the first time the other day. Interesting price fluctuating mechanism, but a bit too euro-y for my taste.

Played an 8p game of Captain Sonar last night. It had been a while since I last had an opportunity. Such a unique experience, but frustrating at times.

A captivating story set in a wonderfully weird world. One of my favourite recent reads.

Played Zoo Vadis last night. I was surprised how much I liked it, given I'm usually not a fan of negotiation games.

Played 7 ronin yesterday, what a fantastic little 2p game. Strong thematic hook evoking the Kurosawa movie, with a nice arc as the ronins fall one by one protecting the village from the bandits.
