    Bought Sheriff of Nottingham a couple weeks back. Such a fun game

    I think we played with 4 teams of 2 so more people could be involved.

    Would it be fun with 2? Lol it's so hard to find 2 player games

    Unfortunately probably not :/ Yeah finding a good 2 player game is extremely difficult

    Really? I mostly play 2 player games. They’re everywhere! What kind of games are you looking for with 2 players?

    Not necessarily actively looking just seems like most things I see are 3+ players

    It’s a really good one! I played it at a convention back in January. But I haven’t see it since.

    My buddy won it in a raffle from our local board game shop but yeah from what I understand it's pretty hard to get your hands on right now.

    Yeah the printings have been selling out fast. A buddy of mine has it. So I’m hoping he brings it by sometime.

    Bought Castles of Burgundy and Agricola on sale yesterday on Amazon. Also I noticed Scythe is only 50 bucks? I could have sworn it was like 80+. I'm super tempted by Scythe but it's also definitely heavier than the typical games my buddy's and I play.

    My friend group plays board games heavily, and were psyched for Scythe.

    We played it once and never touched it again. We honestly found it pretty boring.

    It’s no heavier than Castles or Agricola. Both of those can be seen as heavy

    Hmm okay I guess I'll have to look into it some more. I don't need any more games currently but maybe sometime in the future I'll pick it up. @Allpwrtoslaves thought it was boring, what are your thoughts?

    Honestly, I haven't played it yet, but I've read the rules and have seen it it action. I have a friend with it, but I just haven't been able to be at the table for it.
    It doesn't seem like kind of game, honestly, since I don't like too much conflict in my games. but I'd still like to try it sometime, since it's such a big and important game in the hobby right now.

    I’d like to add I love conflict in my games, the more fucking over you do of other players the better for me, but it still didn’t do it for me.

    Something about it just made it feel like a chore to play.

    Anyone on here picked up the Disney’s Villainous board game? We bought the other day and it has been a blast, even with two people

    If you guys haven't played Secret Hitler with a bunch of friends, you're missing out.

    Secret Hitler is amazing. Kinda hard to get at least five people together regularly though.

    This one is fun! I've only played with 3 people at most but it is indeed a blast. I like playing the Queen of Hearts.
