Almost every day at work during the lunch hour I play games. Those games have to be playable in roughly an hour or less, and usually fall on the lighter end of the weightiness scale. So when game night comes around I am more than ready to try out the meatier games.
Today during lunch we tried "Witch's Brew" for the first time. Two players thought it was okay but the other two acted as if I had served up a steaming plate of dog poop. I thought it wasn't bad but I guess that is a light game that will have to stay at home. BTW, Ken, my Alea collection of big box, medium box, and small box games is now officially complete! The final missing piece, Die Sieben Weisen, arrived in a trade this past week.
