Book Rating

This rating is of the audio book narrated by Wil Wheaton.

I only played one MMORPG seriously (Guild Wars, I'm looking at you!), and it consumed my life for a good year or so. This is important - all sorts of games are mentioned in Ready Player One, but it takes place within an MMO, and I'd wager that experience with MMOs will vastly increase your enjoyment of this book. It brought back all my fondest memories of gaming culture. It wasn't the most complex story of all time, but it did constantly manage to remind me of how much I loved hanging out with friends, arguing about games, and competing to see who truly had the best grasp of combat mechanics in super smash bros.

Great family friendly introductory game!

I really enjoy this game. This is a great game to introduce to people new to the tabletop gaming industry. Century golem edition is a rethemed version of Century Spice Road. Both games are played the exact same way. I prefer Century Golem Edition over Century Spice Road, for no other reason but looks. Century is a great set collection game with minimal "take that" mechanics that can turn people away from other that collecting games. Easy game to play, an easy game to learn, challenging enough for beginners, not so easy for heavier gamers to avoid playing with new gamers.
