We got several games this holiday season. We still haven't had a
chance to play them all. Unfortunately, it was because our FLGS was
closing and blowing out a lot of stock.

Our favorite of our new games this year (so far) is TTR. It's a great
low-energy "I've had a long day at work and you want me to play a game
against your fresh mind?" type game. Settlers of Cataan has filled
this to some measure for us in the past, but even that's a stretch at
times. TTR is going to get played a lot around here, I suspect,
because it's so easy to get into and play while only worrying about
immediate objectives.

We also got the Growing Hunger expansion for Last Night on Earth. It
looks like it adds lots of good material to a good game. There are
some imbalances in the game, which some scenarios address and others
don't, so the game itself isn't perfect without houseruling some
things. Also, the rules are not written at all clearly--close parsing
and looking for rules in odd places is necessary. But once that's
done, its a fun game that does a great job of playing out zombie story
tropes.

Not yet played are Warcraft (boardgame), Munchkin Quest (rules are
very poorly written compared to the card game), and the Demented
Dungeons expansion for the Munchkin card game.
