just started a game of This War of Mine
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If its half as good as the video game then it should be fun.
I can reccomend the following two player games as my wife and I have been playing in lockdown
Tides of time
Tides of madness
7 wonders: duel
There is also pokemon which is still a fun game.

You play pokemon yet also have a wife? What's your secret?
Firefly is a great game with a stupidly long set up. So many pieces. But once you get through a round or two the game flows well.

that is a common problem modern 'hobby' board games. setup time can b torturus. to much bloat in many games also, 2 much stuff.
so many games u need 2-3 hrs set aside, which is not often availabul.

cannot decide which game I like more b-twen This War of Mine n Robinson Crusoe.
TWOM flows along n is less complex but Robinson is funnier in how it destroys u.
like last game almost won but then it storm rain n put out our fire we wanted 2 signal rescue ship with which us bad enuff. but, becuse the fire went out, the tiger that had been stalking the camp for many turns but was kept away by the flame. he was able 2 get 2 us n kill us

Yeah but the dark humor factor elevates it for me.
what I love about TWOM. is that how different the game can feel depending on whut characters u get n how agressively u play the game n decisions u take.
some games feel like a eastern european quasi snuff movie, some like a scandinavian navel-gazing existential angst movie n others like Die Hard.
There is a PC game i play called Rimworld which is basically a colony simulator/base builder. And the colonists that you start with are all flawed in many ways so the stories that develop over time are just as dark n funny and I cant get enough. It has to hold me over right now as I cannot get together with friends in person.
But basically one of my settlers Jenny got depressed because she was denied marriage to the only guy in my clan. She then turned towards becoming a nudist to deal with the empty feeling inside and lost it even further when her pet Yorkie was eaten by a grizzly. At which point she decided to give cannibalism a go. Theresa...poor Theresa. 🌹 Blitz, the bachelor, had to out her down and it put him in a state of shock so he wandered, uncontrollably, around the land and before he could make his way back after snapping out of it, he was mauled by timberwolves.
But board games are super fun because its very social
Me and Miss Mike got the Crystal Maze board game Christmas 2019 off my sister, as she knows we both used to watch the program as kids and we did the live experience thing last summer (which was fun).
Before first playing just getting the bits and pieces out the box and going over the instructions it was a bit overwhelming (mad amount of shiiiit in the box for all the individual games), like reading War and Peace and trying to solve Enigma
Eventually got everything going, and was grate fun.

Operation is a classic too, grate fun after people have had a few drinks to increase the difficulty level.
lol
ur rite Mike.
learning a new game is like reeding war n peace n solving enigma
Wait, Mike, you actually went on the crystal maze? Or was this a fan thing?

Not actually on the tv show no, there’s a live experience in Manchester, think there’s one in London too. Where you can go in teams and it’s basically the same, you get a host and run around the maze doing different games etc and then the dome at the end. Good fun.
