Gaming At Home

We had borrowed 2 new (to us) games from the CABS library.

First we played the Ark of the Covenant. It is the first religious game we've played. It's based on the Carcassonne style of game, and we enjoyed it. To be honest, I thought if you changed the pictures a little, and named things differently, it would be called another name but would play exactly the same. It really isn't a religious game at all.


Next we played the card game version of Ticket to Ride. I don't really care for it. I've only played the regular Ticket to Ride once, but the card version is way too complicated. And it involves having a good memory. Maybe other people would enjoy it, but both Kiwi and I have memory issues, so it's not a good game for us. We discussed maybe playing it again, but this time not needing to flip the cards facedown, and changing the gameplay a little. But that would make the game too easy. Hmm, Ticket to Ride card game for juniors, perhaps? Anyway, I was too irritated with the game to want to play it again, even with easier rules.
