Cave Troll
Always a good time.
I prefer my old version without minis as cardboard counters are easier to recognise.

Karnak
Assemble structures to match contract cards scored at the end. Claim contracts early to get bonus cards, but then opponents can wreck your structures.
In the end game I was blocked. I could not complete any contracts and I could not get any more pieces. Boring and frustrating.

Before the Wind
This little card game is *much* better with 3.
Each player can pick an action card but if you want another player's action you can bid for it. They have to pay you to keep it or they can sell. Tense decisions.
Android Mainframe
An update to the old paper and pencil game Dots and Boxes. Plays quickly and there's plenty of skill but it's fundamentally just Dots and Boxes.
Dan Thurots review is spot on. https://spacebiff.com/tag/android-mainframe/

Clank Catacombs
Love this. The push your luck element of getting out of the dungeon before the dragon kills you is superb. You're circling around the exit in the end game trying to scrape up a last artifact before you bail while watching everyone else.

Escape from the Aliens in Outer Space
Professional production of a hidden movement print and play game. Using pen and paper would be just as good.
Captain Sonar is much more tense and interesting because of the time limit and having to work with your teammates.

Karuba
This came out a couple of years before Railroad Ink and I'm sure it was inspired by Karuba, as you are connecting two opposite sides of the board in a very similar way. If you like one you'll like the other but you do not need both.

Imhotep
Boats are ferrying stone to the pyramids. You have to make sure that your stones are generating the most victory points. Once all stones are placed score a round and repeat.
Lots of turn order shenanigans, which makes it very interactive. Quick and intuitive.
Recommended.

these are worse than Facebook
But if there's no traffic on the L1 then fees will fall and people will only use Arkade for low, value or time-sensitive transactions.
Fees are something like 50c right now, so there is nothing stopping people using L1 for medium value, non-time sensitive transactions.
I just used Universal Android Debloater GUI to clean up my wife's Xiaomi phone. Nice hardware, but *horrible* software.

Excellent guest. Wish he was on Nostr.
It voids any contributions you have on the topic. It shows you have not done *any* homework and have no idea.
Thinking that Jameson Lopp is a core developer shows you are clueless.
Caesar's Empire
I'm surprised this hasn't been more popular. You set up trading routes across the Roman Empire collecting trade goods to make sets. It's family friendly, looks good on the table and there's plenty of skill. Maybe it's because there's no luck? π€·

Fjords
This multiplayer semi-abstract feels like a throwback. It's easy to learn and it takes half an hour. It's a far better game than Carcassone, although it has some of the nastiness of Hey, That's My Fish

Cashu.me does not connect to my account via NWP. I added the URL, but zaps are broken.
I do not know if it's a NWP problem with me playing around with lots of Nostr clients or if it's a problem with Cashu.me.

Deep Regrets
I feel mixed about this. On one hand, it's pretty original mechanically and thematically plus the art is lovely. On the other hand, it drags on for too long and I didn't find the decisions interesting.
