Sorry about forgetting to post here about the Weekly challenges. I?ll take a moment to catch up here.
Week 43 - Play a game via email.
Week 44 - Play a zombie game.
Week 45 - Play a game on your lunch break.
Week 46 - Play a print-and-play game.
Week 47 - Play a game that was designed over 100 years ago.
Week 48 - Play a game that isn?t published in your native language.
Although I did play at least one game most of those weeks, I didn?t complete any of the challenges... probably because I wasn?t really thinking about them when I had a chance to play something. Also, I have still been playing asynchronous-turn-based games on
www.boardgamearena.com, which is kind of like playing via email but a lot less work involved since all the visuals and rules are managed there, like a video game.
For this week?s challenge, maybe I can get my son and wife to play
Union Pacific with me. It?s an American railroad themed game, but I believe it was only published in German. (I got an English translation of the rules on a separate piece of paper.)
