#qwirkle — Public Fediverse posts

Here's some of my #boardgames highlights from January.

#PandaRoyale has been a big hit with just about everyone. It's silly. It's random. But who doesn't love to roll fistfulls of dice?

I bought #Ink for my wife because of the pretty colors and artsy theme. Turns out, there's a tight little game in that box!

For my birthday, all I wanted was to play a game of #Concordia with real people. I'm so glad I got to play it! It's such a satisfying game.

Finally got to try #FoxExperiment. I loved it. But there may have only been two of us that did. Everyone else was a bit confused.

I'm always happy to play a game of #MinigolfDesigner. Such a great game!

#QwirkleFlex is a nice little twist on the original. The added diagonal points are simple addition, but they add a fun layer to to check for when playing a tile. Though I do wish there was a bit more done with them, I still can't see going back to the old fashioned #Qwirkle.

My kids very nearly broke a game of #qwirkle by forming a Latin square the other week. #boardgames

Danke, @plinubius 🙏

Mir ist vor einer Weile aufgefallen, dass ich beim #Qwirkle - Spielen sehr ähnliche, positive Erfahrungen wie beim #Bloggen mache: Die Freude an dialogischer Interaktion, an unerwarteten Kombinationen, an der nachträglichen #Mustererkennung. Für Deinen Ansatz vom "Möglichkeitenraum" spricht wohl auch, dass jedes einzelne Qwirkle-Match & jeder Blogpost fast unendlich neu wirkt (im Gegensatz z.B. zum von mir auch geliebten #Schach ). 🤔🤓☕ https://scilogs.spektrum.de/natur-des-glaubens/qwirkle-blogs-und-philosophie/

Nun habe ich ja schon als Jugendlicher begeistert #PenandPaper - Fantasy - Rollenspiele wie #DnD , #Shadowrun & #DSA gespielt. Und über die #AgeofEmpires - Begeisterung zweier Kinder entwickeln sich oft hervorragende Dialoge über #Kulturen, #Geschichte & #Politik. Auch beobachte ich bei #Qwirkle mit meiner Frau & Kids ähnliche Effekte wie beim #Bloggen : Die Freude an dialogischen Interaktionen, unerwarteten Kombinationen, Mustererkennung. Spielen verbindet.

Freue mich über den Erfolg des #VfBStuttgart und habe heute mal einfach zur persönlichen #Philosophie eines Brettspiels gebloggt, das nicht nur mir viel bedeutet: #Qwirkle. Und, ja, diese Partie hatte #ZehraBlume gewonnen! :-) https://scilogs.spektrum.de/natur-des-glaubens/qwirkle-blogs-und-philosophie/

#planszowki Nasza Księgarnia postanowiła przypomnieć nam o klasyku. #Qwirkle łączy pokolenia i graczy o różnym poziomie zaawansowania, dzięki prostym zasadom, które wytłumaczymy w kilku zdaniach. Zasady proste, ale dające sporo możliwości taktycznch i strategicznych. Dobre nie tylko na majówkę. 🙂

Played some #Qwirkle last night. Always fun! Barely managed a win!

Good family game from #Minnesota (the manufacturer, MindWare, is here): #Qwirkle

Like dominoes, distinctly match 6 colors or 6 shapes, so no runs longer than 6. Good for kiddos since easy to match.

#Qwirkle

Kind of like scrabble but with colours & shapes. Fun for adults but easy for kids to learn too. Good, level playing field without hugely complex strategy options, so my 10 year old daughter regularly beats me which is good for family harmony.
