Game Reflections:
- Dominion: Dominion first appeared like it would be a hard game to get the hang of, but I was surprised by how easy it was to learn. The game also had a great level of strategy to it, I had to be constantly planning out my next moves as well as dealing with unexpected circumstances such as pulling cards I didn’t need at the time or when other players would play cards that disrupted my hand. Overall a fun game that appears to have many interesting strategies that I would need multiple runs to learn.
- Carcassonne: Carcassonne was a game I have actually played a bit beforehand so I already knew some things going into it. I just had to be given a brief refresher on the rule and I was ready to go. I feel the game is easy to understand but there is still a lot of strategy and luck that goes into playing this game well. Overall the game was as fun as I remember it being and I’m sure this won’t be the last time I revisit this game.
