I also played all the games Matthew did except for the last... Fast Flowing Forest Fellers: This was an okay game--but with the dependence on drawing the right cards at the right time and the ability of others to push you back to the "start" in one swoop--made it one that I wouldn't get for myself. I think the more "take that" games I play, the less I like them.
Fury of Dracula: This is always a good time. Sometime I'll have to read up on Dracula's special abilities and take a shot at being Dracula. Without the luck of the mesmerize card it would have been a different game. Sorry Nate. Niagara: I own this game and I really like it. It plays fast, concept is easy to understand, moving river mechanic is cool, your game play decisions make a difference, and your fortune can change in a turn. What's not to like?! :) Santiago: I thought I was doing well at the start, thought I was doing terrible in the middle, and ended up with a decent score. Ed ended up winning even though everyone thought Ran had it in his back pocket. I think it has some interesting game play choices, and as was revealed to me half-way through, a play in your favor can subtly favor you competitors more. I appreciate Matthew recommending some fun games. I hope my lack of interest in La Havre was not a spoiler for him. On another note: This coming Friday they are having a Wings of War tourney at 6 PM. There were about 6 people playing Wings of War while we were playing games and it looked like they were having fun. I think I might go to the tourney if I can get away. How about you Ken?
