@RalfHH, have fun testing the expansion! I'm a little jealous, to be honest—let us know how it compares to the base game and whether it brings the right spice to it. Have a great game night!
Thanks, that was fun! 😊
The gameplay doesn't change with the expansion, there's just a lot more choice in which city you play with and therefore which tasks you have to complete. Out of local patriotism, we of course played Hamburg (with Reeperbahn, Elbtunnel and Hafencity) and then Berlin (with Reichstag, Tiergarten and Potsdamer Platz). The small Theater expansion is really small, you can use it to replace the special tiles (joker construction sites) to generate points. But the game doesn't change much because of it. I'll post about it tomorrow.
we usually start with a good connoisseur game and then a card game to close out (if it's fun, gladly 2-3 rounds too)
Unfortunately, time flies too fast at game nights, doesn't it?
Either a more complex game against each other first, followed by a nightcap if there's still time, or a longer co-op game like Slay the Spire or Spirit Island.
I think it really depends a lot on what kind of group of people you're playing with.
For casual players, a heavy expert game is more of a no-go, so I'd go for the quick little party games instead and maybe small cooperative games; with older people, the cooperative games don't go over so well because they don't know them from their "youth."
But if you're meeting up with friends where you know they want to play and they can play, then there's nothing stopping you from bringing out a heavy game.
Convention hits are of course always good, because you don't know them yet
@Sina: You're absolutely right, the game group is really the be-all and end-all! A complex expert game is no fun if half the table doesn't feel like sitting through long rules explanations. The observation about older players and co-op games is also super exciting—I've noticed that too! You just have to adapt the game to the group. Thanks for your great input! 💡🎲
Thanks so much for your votes and the great insights into your sessions!
@Ücki: Have fun with the first play of Dito on Friday, that sounds like a super start!
@RalfHH: I'm totally jealous, have fun testing the Cities expansion today!
@Dan & Mabruk: You're speaking straight from my soul the combo of a punchy gamer's game to start and a quick nightcap or co-op banger (like Spirit Island) is just unbeatable. And yes, time really always flies way too fast on evenings like that! I'm curious to see what other comments come flying in here.
Have a ton of fun gaming, everyone! 🎲✨
@Ücki: Thanks so much, that really makes me super happy to hear! 😊 But it's also just a huge amount of fun to chat here in the community and see what everyone's bringing to the table. Keep having fun gaming! 🎲✨
@Munky666, heavenly entertainment. Sounds absolutely dreamy. Valley of the Sky Lantern already looks great just visually, and if Grow Sky works out as a bonus too, it'll be a well-rounded game night. Have fun with the heavenly gaming, everyone!
@LarsVader87, oh the name says it all! Kemet Blut und Sand is hardly beatable when it comes to confrontation and tactical skirmishing. My brother is absolutely thrilled with it. The heads of your fellow players will surely be glowing, right?
Good luck with the conquering and have a strong men's game day, everyone!
The next few evenings we'll be playing Cozy Stickerville - we finally picked that one up too.
At the next big game night, I'd like to bring Drillers as a trade fair newcomer and, after a long time, Glen More II back to the table.
We've got Ezra and Nehemiah on the schedule again. But what always works too is Fate, the Defense of Grimmheim, a cooperative game that's pretty tough but really funny with its card sayings.

At our next men's game day, "Final Titan" will hit the table first, followed by "Kemet - Blood and Sand." Pure confrontation 😅

Usually there's a Friday gamer game round with my wife and me. We might finally want to test Autobahn, which has been sitting with us for a while 🫣

The community seems very united on this, haha! Hope that helps with the decision. :)

I still have Thessaloniki, Black Rose Wars, Blutigen Herberge, and Kavango waiting unplayed for the next game session.
