Citadels - game of the year
| During holiday break the Lamere clan spends lots of time around
the kitchen table playing all sorts of games. I make sure that there
are plenty of new games under the Christmas year. This year was no
exception, with 5 new games for us to while away the hours. We do have
some gaming requirements: there are 5 of us who play (sadly, mom is not a
game player (apparently I'm too competitive ...sigh)) with an age range
of 10 to adult. This year's favorite game by far was 'Citadels'.
Citadels is a card game where the goal is to build a city before your
opponents do. There are assasins, thieves, warlords and others to watch
out for. There's great player interaction, some luck, bluffing and
even a bit of role playing. It's a lot of fun (I can tell for sure
because the kids dragged out the game even when I wasn't around). Worth
checking out during these upcoming indoor winter evenings.
