Essen 2006 - Photoshow,. Part 2
More photos from this year's Spiel in Essen...
The fair always holds some fun moments. Some of them I dare not posting to the internet. However, I just cannot resist here... ;)
While some Essen participants enjoy playing games and take *a lot* of notes...
...others enjoy the silence and the quietness of a Gogol game. Oh, yeah, and maybe they harm the marketing message. Maybe Gogol is not as exciting and fast-paced as the commercials wants us to think...
Nothing to add to this message - Discover what is really important - More time for kids
3D-Chess did not spike much interest
...and the same might be true for Der Dativ ist dem Genitiv sein Tod
Gemblo - Having heard all the praise from Korea we wanted to try this game
