New Board Games
Posted on January 16, 2024 by Ching under Games, Hobbies.
Brian and I learned to play a new board game last week. Zach and Lisa taught us how to play Blokus, a 2-4 player strategy game using block shapes.
When Zach first told me about it a few weeks ago, I thought it sounded fun so I went ahead and ordered it (XL version) and Trigon (triangle shapes version) off Amazon. When my Trigon game arrived, we went over to Zach and Lisa’s place and they taught us how to play Blokus (that was our first time playing) and then we also played the Trigon version.
I’m not sure if this is a well-known fact but Brian and I love playing games. We love card games, board games, really any games. Brian’s actually playing chess with me again too (and kicking my butt, I might add).
Anyway, I thought I would share our most recent game purchases:
- Blokus XL – This is the same as the Blokus game but with bigger pieces.
- Blokus Trigon – Same as the Blokus game but with triangle shapes instead of squares.
- Blank Slate – Super fun game that Colby brought to Susie’s house last month. I ended up ordering it that same night. We brought the game to Christmas Eve lunch at mom and dad’s and it was a hit. It was $25 was I ordered it but it’s actually on sale right now for $19 so if you want to buy your own game, now is the time to order it.
- Qawale – This is a two player game Brian and I discovered via an online video. It’s quick and fun.
Are there any other games we should check out? We are open to suggestions. Let us know in the comments.
