Board Game Session Report for November 30, 2002: Magic: the Gathering, Torres, Dealing With Murder


Home

Private session. 3-player Magic: the Gathering, 4-player Torres, 5-player Dealing With Murder.

Magic: the Gathering

Players were Karl, Nancy, myself. New players to the game were: Karl, Nancy.

We played a game with the restriction of creatures attack left only, to keep from ganging up on one player. I was without creatures for a long time and Nancy reserved her creatures to resist Karl's attacks. Eventually, Nancy conceded, which threw me for a loop because I wasn't ready to defend against Karl. Karl ended up winning.

Final scores were:

Torres

Players were Karl, Nancy, Chip, myself. New players to the game were: Karl, Nancy, myself. Chip had the first turn.

We played the master rules which were new to Chip.

This was a fairly balanced game. I blew it because I lost sight of trying to occupy the big castles, and I didn't have a pawn on each separate level for the end-game bonus, and everyone else did.

Game lasted 120 minutes. Final scores were:

Dealing With Murder

Players were Joe, Karl, Nancy, Chip, myself. New players to the game were: Joe, Karl, Nancy, Chip, myself. Chip had the first turn.

We spent 12 minutes going over the rules.

This is a one-shot murder mystery. Each player has a hand of cards representing information about the crime. Players play a card, then draw a card.

What can I say? It's a fun one-shot party game. Play it then pass it on.

Nancy thought she solved it, but got it wrong. Chip solved the crime, just as a critical piece of evidence became available.

Final scores were:
