Running the firs laps

So, I visited some friends and we had a sort of board game marathon. Here are the card games.

Wave

A co-op card game. That's new to me. We onl had to players for this one, so we had that Silver NPC.  The mechanic where cards have two different sets of value (numeric and based on color) was neat, and the blind card system was entertaining as well. Based on just two games Wave seems to make a decent job at being a co-op card game. 

Our first attempt we lost real bad, with easily over twenty or even twenty-five cards left in play. Second game when we actually had any idea what we were doing, we actually got down to just one card remaining in play, so yay for that.

Munchkin

A three player game of Munchkin. I took the lead early on, which... is not exactly a good thing in Munchkin. I got hammered down fast, and didn't rise again as a human cleric, always dragging a level or two behind others. Game was won by Halfling... thief, I think?

 The stars aligned, and we saw the giant nose get killed by potion of halitosis. 

Joking Hazard

Well, you know how this goes. We had three players, and game ended in a curiously even 12/11/11.
