A tactical card game with an Arthurian theme that really works! This gorgeous game is a nail biter right to the very end. I have only gotten the chance to play this as a two player game, so my opinion may be skewed somewhat.
With the plethora of pirate themed games that seem to be popping up all over the place. It’s rare to find one that is truly unique and fun. Well look no further.
Do not let the childish theme of Landlock lull you into thinking that this is just a children’s game. While the rules are simple enough for an 8 year old to master, the strategy that comes into play will keep any adult on his or her toes.
Tried this out last night. Not bad, but nothing innovative here. Game play is simple and straight forward.

But every now and then something good comes of it. Today, while ignoring my seemingly bottomless inbox and surfing the net, I found out about Brettspielwelt. This is a German site that allows you to play dozens of games for free via a java applet. And by games, I mean German games. Currently, there are about 60-70 games offered.
The wife and I just got done with a few rounds of Carcassonne followed by a few hands of Lost Cities. Wow! The graphics are almost as good as the originals, the game play is flawless and the price is outstanding! (That means free.) However, there is a downside. If your not fluent in German, navigation can be diificult. They do have an English front end, but once your in, its all Deutsch. Luckily, the Boardgamegeek site has plenty of helpful articles. While this does not replace or even come near to the fun I get from playing face to face… It’ll do in a pinch.
