I'm a big fan of Dvonn (which I haven't played recently), so I've been anxious to try other games in the GIPF project. The gameplay and components are elegant (just like Dvonn), and I enjoyed my first play. My only concern is that it seems (from one play) that your opponent will only score if you make a mistake. However, it's possible that, between two experienced players, the winner will have to force his or her opponent into lose-lose situations, rather then hope that they overlook something. I look forward to playing this game again.
Computer Games played: Age of Wonders II
PS2 Games played: Baldur's Gate: The Dark Alliance II (continuing)
Notes:
In addition to over 30 hours of gameplay this month, I spent 12 hours teaching games at various local stores. This is part of my agreement with Wizards of the Coast, in exchange for which they have provided me with copies of quite a few of their games. One of which (A&A:D-Day), I tried for the first time last week. While I'm not heavily into wargames, it seems to be a good introduction to the genre.
Next Month: GenCon!
