Settlers of Catan

During this week's MindGames meeting, we played a game called The Settlers of Catan!


In Settlers of Catan, players try to be the dominant force on the island of Catan by building settlements, cities, and roads. On each turn dice are rolled to determine what resources the island produces. Players collect these resources to build up their civilizations to get to 10 victory points and win the game. Multi-award-winning and one of the most popular games in recent history due to its amazing ability to appeal to non-gamers and gamers alike.


The game...

Game Review : Shadow Over Chamelot


Shadow Over Chamelot is suitable for 3 to 7 players.
Materials :

Shadows over Camelot™ is a unique collaborative game featuring a malevolent twist! As the incarnation of the Knights of the Round Table, you join forces against the game itself in an attempt to protect Camelot.

Your victory hinges on the successful completion of legendary Quests, such as the search for Excalibur, the Holy Grail, or Lancelot's Armor; the tournament against the Black Knight; and numerous wars against the Saxons and Picts.

But beware... all is not as it seems among these noble Knights. One of your number might yet turn out to be a traitor-in-waiting, biding his time while sowing havoc and destruction from the Shadows!

Step into the legend!

Game Review : Santy Anno


This game can be played with 2 to 8 players....
Game material :
You are one of the notorious pirates of the Santy Anno, the terrifying three-master that makes the Caribbean seas insecure. After a long night drinking rum and partying, you have forgotten where your ship is and, even worse, who is your captain!

To resolve this, actually very common problem in a pirate’s life, the pirate’s guild has initiated a new tradition: the first 3 on board will respectively become captain and first mates. The ones arriving too late will be demoted to ship’s boys and spend the rest of the trip cleaning the deck!

Will you be fast and smart enough to avoid being spending the rest of your time with brush and bucket instead of sword and gun?

Avoid to be demoted and get a maximum of ducats. At the end of the game (5 rounds) the player with the most money is nominated captain and wins. The next 2 are his first mates

The others lose and have to pay for the next round… and to clean the table and glasses!

Game Review : Citadels


Citadels is a non-collectable card game for 2-8 players where the skills of bluffing, deduction, and city building are necessary to win.

The premise of the game is that you are a medieval ruler trying to complete your city before your opponents can build theirs.

There are 2 types of cards: Character cards and District cards. Each character card has a number on the top left hand corner which indicates the order in which the players will be able to perform their action.

To help in your endeavor, you secretly take on the roles of certain character cards such as the king, bishop, and assassin each round. The basic game allows you to take on any one of the 8 roles, each with their powers.

The District cards are further divided into 5 different colors indicated on the lower left hand corner and the amount of gold necessary to bring that card in to play on the top left hand corner.

The game ends in the round with the first player to bring 8 District cards into play. All but one color provides a boost in income depending on the character role that player has taken.
