Ooh, nice! I've heard good things about
Black Plague, including that it's excellent played solo, which I sometimes do. You wouldn't happen to be playing it that way, would you, Mike?
Meanwhile, I've been pretty into Vital Lacerda's
Lisboa recently. This game is elegant and brain-burning in equal measure, and I love it! You're Portuguese businessmen competing to make your fortune in the aftermath of the
devastating earthquake that leveled Lisbon in 1755. Maybe that sounds dry, but this game is just so darn
colorful! check out these pictures and tell me you aren't intrigued:
Pretty cool, huh?
Lisboa has quickly become one of my favorites. I expect I'll be coming back to this one regularly.
