Samarkand Board Game Review and Rules

Frank’s Zoo Card Game Review and Rules

December 1, 2017November 12, 2017 Eric Mortensen 0 Comments 1999, Doris Matthäus, Frank Nestel, Rio Grande Games

Elfenland Board Game Review and Rules

March 20, 2017February 21, 2017 Eric Mortensen 0 Comments 1998, Alan Moon, Amigo, Doris Matthäus, Midgaard Games, Rio Grande Games

While it never reaches the level of Ticket to Ride, Elfenland has some good ideas for a light to moderate strategy game.
