Imogen SB (4507 KP) rated Monopoly Fortnite Edition in Tabletop Games
Mar 19, 2019
'I must confess I do prefer it to most other forms of Monopoly that are neglected in my cupboard gathering dust. For me, its best feature is that it isn’t actually just another version of Monopoly, although you will recognise the layout of the board, that is where comparisons stop, and this is a game in its own right.'

'Auztralia is easily one of the best gaming experiences I've had this year, which is high praise since I don't normally care for co-ops. I look forward to repeatedly returning to the down under, where “that is not dead can enteral lie” unless us pesky humans poke it with a sharp stick.'

It's a good game to trading and playing the odds
Picking a settlement means picking specific numbers to get specific resources. when rolling two dice the most likely roll is a 7 statistically. with 6's and 8's being the next most and so on both up and down. Starting the game fast is vital so your placements are vital. then you collect resources and build from there. Negotiation with your neighbors to trade what you have to get what you need is a great part of the game.... unless you play with the people who just don't trade.... which happens. Also if the rolls are going to everyone else's numbers and not yours, there is literally nothing you can do about it. This game can be both amazing and frustrating at the same time, and with the right people this is a great time. It has some flaws but over all it's a great gateway game into modern board games, and everyone should play it once in their lifetimes even if you out grow it shortly after.... If all you play is monopoly and scrabble, this is a game that will blow your mind.

Emma @ The Movies (1786 KP) rated Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017) in Movies
Jun 28, 2019 (Updated Sep 25, 2019)
Twenty years after the events of the first film, the infamous board game has evolved into a video game and while cleaning out a school's basement serving detention, four teenagers find it and get sucked into the same jungle setting that Alan Parrish got sucked into all those years ago. Having become their avatars inside the game the only way out is to play along and finish it.
You see Jumanji, and instantly you think "bleurgh, they're not remaking it are they?!"
Having missed the Unlimited Screening because of my work Christmas do, I dragged myself out of bed to see the preview the next morning... and oh my god was it worth the early start. Honestly, I would watch it again in a heartbeat. It is just good old fashioned fun.
I wasn't sure how they were going to turn the board game into a video game, but I really liked the way they did it. From there on I was completely sold on it. I love all four of the main actors, and watching them playing teenagers was so entertaining. Jack Black has to be my hero, diva to a T. Little upsetting to see Bobby Cannavale as the baddie though, that's one fantasy man out of the window, can't go dreaming about him after seeing creepy crawlies all over him.
This one will definitely be in my DVD collection when it comes out, and yes, I will be shouting "Jumanji" out at the end.

Slade Jeffries (11 KP) rated Betrayal at Baldur's Gate in Tabletop Games
Mar 21, 2019
Just as great as the original with a fantasy twist.
Betrayal at Baldur's Gate is a fantastic game. The original Betrayal game is my all time favorite game and I was worried this game would be a cheap reskin, but I was mistaken. Baldur's sets itself apart with a few changes to the game that actually work very well. Now playable characters have abilities based on their class that are actually very useful. Instead of exploring a house you are exploring a city which has lots of cool areas to find and secrets to uncover. The best part about all the Betrayal games is the fact that almost every play through can be different because of the way scenarios are randomized. Every scenario I have played has been fun and completely different from others. The quality of the pieces is also fantastic the tokens are on thick cardboard that is very sturdy. Now this game is a little difficult for people new to more complex board games like this, and maybe there could be a better way to explain the rules to new players. All in all Betrayal at Baldur's Gate is a fantastic game that you will play again and again, while probably never playing the same scenario twice.

Card Drafting and Civilization building at it's finest, with a large player count which is so hard to find.
love this game, plus it's 2 player version 7 Wonders Duel. it's a really great light to medium weight game about how you choose to build your civilization. You start with a wonder, which gives you a starting power/resource, then you build from there by adding card to your tableau which in turn gives you the ability to buy more things. you can build your military and bully your neighbors, or focus on knowledge, or make sure your civilization is rich with resources and money, and trade with your neighbors... Each thing you do builds up to doing more. Great Game especially showcases what modern games can do and still good for relative beginners to the Board game world.
