The grand pic of all my PAX 2025 acquisitions! Top row are expansions, other two rows are new standalone games.
Remember, friends, I'm just about always interested in setting aside time to play these (or anything else in the collection)!

By the afternoon I was reaching a point of physical exhaustion, so I came home a bit early. But I got some last minute goodies first!

I mostly spent the first day looking for clearance and discounted games. I think I did a pretty good job on it.

I spent most of today around friends and getting an idea of what was new, so not a lot of hands-on game time, but did play Number Drop and Tidal Blades: Banner Festival.

Little Tavern, then Takenoko! Side note, it's cool when I see old friends at a game site. I'll probably run into them and more at PAX.

Went to a Halloween party tonight. Since I was sick this week, I didn't have time to prepare a costume or even think much about planning for it...fortunately, someone else came with extra costumes for themselves that she offered to dress me up instead.

Castles of Burgundy and Barenpark! I won both games, except that I accidentally placed a tile I shouldn't have been able to place on Burgundy.

Today's crazy Lyft story: one of my rides got me within a few blocks of a good board game store, so I took some time off to see if they had some of the games I wanted to pick up previously at PAX Unplugged but weren't in stock then.
Good news, they did!

Video Game Champion! Whichever our NES-era selves is the best gamer? Also, how obvious is it how much the box art is clearly meant to be actual games?

Raiders of the North Seas! This one took us a little while to really figure out and we agreed it was more interesting at 3 or 4 players, but enjoyable all the same.

It's wave 2 of the puzzle party! A new set of competitors joined and left frustrated, but (hopefully) in the best possible way.
I've also kinda learned that given the trends I'm seeing between this and wave 1, I think I made the puzzles longer and/or more difficult than previous attempts at this.
