Five & Dime List - Q1/2006
Since the beginning of 2006 I have made it a habit to track all games I have played on BGG. It's simply a great feature of the Geek. So far, there are no Dimes in the list. Had someone asked me three months ago whether there would be some Dimes on the list I would have proclaimed: 100% yes. As it turns out - there are quite a few Fives and several others which got really close.
So here is Naturelich's Official Five & Dime List for the first quarter of 2006 with comments where appropriate.
Dimes
Currently none.
Fives
- Puerto Rico (6): Played this game for the first time in this quarter. Can you believe it? And, yes, it's really good!
- Ticket to Ride (5): Continuously popular. The entire TtR family...
- Ticket to Ride Europe (5): ...is something I cannot resist. And with the addition of...
- Ticket to Ride - Märklin Edition (5): ...it has even become worse. Projected to be a Dime by year-end.
- Memoir'44 (5): Enthusiasm for this game started last year but continues to be strong in 2006.
Follow-Ups
- Die Dolmengötter (4): I really hate this game not being in the Fives
- Jenga (4): All in one evening, but fun...
- Thurn und Taxis (4): Extremely promising candidate for one of the first Dimes before the end of Q2
Recurring
- Carcassonne (1): Yep, it's still on the list. Actually played with the first two expansions...
- Raub Ritter (1): Simple and fun.
- Mah-Jongg (2): Looooong but fun.
- Aqua Romana (1): Too complicated for regular play
- Bohnanza (1): What can I say? Played this one in conjunction with High Bohn.
- Scrabble (1): Great filler
First plays
- Caylus (1): Huge urge to play again.
- La Città (1): dito
- Timbuktu (1): Maybe I'll play this again.
- The Sudoku Game (1): Works best as a solo game
- A Game of Thrones (1): Huge urge to play again
Predicted to be played never, never again
- Confusion: Fun, but will probably not see light again...
Comments
At first it was hard to find out what a "Five & Dime List" might be, but now I'm a unterstanding person willing to support your efforts to get the right games higher on your list.
