Let's Play a Game! A place to discuss all things board game, regardless of genre. Everything from Scrabble and Catan to Ark Nova, 1830 and beyond is fair game!
Rules: -Play nicely with others here.
-Discussion should be at least somewhat related to board games and all that entails.
-Self-promotion is allowed within reason. Don't go overboard!

Family was in town and we taught them Cat in the Box and Terraforming Mars. Both were a big hit with an edge to Cat because of the decreased complexity. Haven't played much of TM at 4, usually at 2, and the strategy changes quite a bit!
Big fan of Terraforming Mars. Once you've got an experienced group, I'd try switching over to drafting cards instead of the random draw. It slows the game down a little, but it is an improvement.
Yup, when my wife and I play we draft cards but to speed things up with the new people we wanted to keep the options down.
And we played a little Cascadia which went over well.
