Angie Downs I'm playing a new game this month. It's called, "Let's see how much house work I can get done in as little time possible!" lol Sounds exciting, doesn't it?

I am a nerd in many ways, aside from books, lol. I love Wil Wheaton. He did a video of it on his Geek and Sundry site. Other than that, I am hoping to play some more Skyrim soon. I cannot get enough of that.

Jess :) | 26 comments My fiancee is a board-game geek and has roped me into playing Alhambra tonight. http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/62...

Based on the reviews, it looks like this should be fun! :)

It looks like a lot of fun! You will have share a review/update after you play. I would love to hear about it. :)

Angie Downs Hmm...prizes...here's a prize for you- NOT stepping all over a bunch of toys and dog hair...

Allison Chan | 6 comments I'm completely obsessed with this wii game called Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. It's a kill-your-enemy-units game, but to win u need to be strategic. It's hard but fun :)


message 10: by Jess :) (new)

Jess :) | 26 comments Alhambra has been so much fun. The rules are very easy to learn, yet the game play involves enough strategy to keep things interesting. This was my first time playing this sort of game, and I honestly wasn't expecting this to be so entertaining. I was pleasantly surprised and am now totally hooked!

loïc (theonetheycalljob) | 6 comments Currently playing Trine 2 : great fairy tale graphics and fun physics-puzzles ... Perfect as a casual game, inviting yet not to intense =)

[have to say I suspect it generating mad pixels in my screen :/ ]

I will be checking that out for sure!

Jess :) | 26 comments Next up, Carcassonne! I hear it's rather similar to Alhambra. :)


message 14: by Karena (new)

Karena (karenafagan) I just bought Tomb Raider but haven't managed to play more than 20 minutes in. Not because it's a bad game, but just because my CWAtC life has taken over. :)

Katastrophe_85 Other half roped me into playing Myst and just moved onto Riven - debating whether or not we'll make it without a walkthrough...


message 16: by Reija (new)

Reija Rayman legend challenge app (WiiU) I have played it daily for weeks.. I'm addicted to it.

It is, but we are a friendly group here so we bond over lots of things.


message 19: by Karena (new)

Karena (karenafagan) Outofprintclothing.com is doing a Gatsby Game that donates to charity when you finish the game. It's 8 bit so nothing fancy, but super fun.

Jess :) | 26 comments This Gatsby game was fun, thanks Karena! It also felt good to donate a book ;)


message 21: by Poiema (new)

Poiema We love Settlers of Catan at our house. Also word games like Apples-to-Apples or Scattergories.

Settlers of Catan is one of my brother's favorite board games. We have a bunch of expansions and everything. Another fun board game is Ticket to Ride. I don't know if anyone's played it but it's really fun and super competitive (at least for my family).

I love video games! I spend way too many hours on the playstation. I will forever play Skyrim. It's seriously like the best never-ending game for me. There's always something to do and always objectives to accomplish. I also am playing Dishonored which is is a super fun game. A little dark but fun nonetheless. AND I'm playing through Donkey Kong Country Returns on the wii. I love that game and it's a nice change of pace from Skyrim and Dishonored.

My coworker is going to let me borrow Assassin's Creed 3. Has anyone played that?

My husband has played all the Assassin's Creeds. LOVES them. Have you seen the trailer for the ps4? Looks incredible and there are pirates! Who doesn't love pirates?

I have! Our local gamestop was already started their sign up for preorders and my husband and I have already put money down. It looks awesome and very interesting.

I wish it came out sooner. October 29th is so far away!

I haven't played them myself, but I love watching him play. It's so well done! Personally I'm waiting for Dragon Age 3.

HeatherIlene (heather_ilene) | 91 comments Just started a character in my husband's town (Animal Crossing). Also started The Last of Us this weekend. Both good but for completely different reasons.


message 27: by Maricarmen (new)

Maricarmen Estrada M Games? Not my thing... But I've been caught in the Candy Crush frenzy lately.


message 28: by Chelsea (new)

Chelsea M | 12 comments I'm playing the original Half-Life, but I am rather rubbish at it - I've been stuck in the first section for about two weeks, too scared to continue.
