The bitumen road had given way to a well-maintained dirt track. My monster road train was stubbornly ploughing on, throwing up red dust behind it in giant plumes. From time to time I could see kangaroos, wombats, spiny anteaters, platypuses and dingos. I even caught a rare glimpse of a Tasmanian devil. It was very busy in this arid landscape. In fact, it was so busy that it felt like there was an ⁠Outback Crossing⁠ by Bruce Whitehill from ⁠Mücke Spiele⁠.

Each of us was part of a team of four brave explorers who had spent months on the high seas to reach an island of myths and legends. All of us were on an expedition to navigate through dense jungle, trying to uncover paths that had been long lost and many of which were dead ends. If we were lucky we might find treasures along the way: gold nuggets or precious jewels. However, the riches along the way were mere trifles compared to our ultimate goal. Each of us wanted to be the first to reach one of the four temples whose tips we could see sticking out above the giant trees. These temples would reward us with unimaginable treasure and glory. We were determined to make history on the island of Karuba by Rüdiger Dorn from HABA.

"Captain!" came the shout from the deck. I turned around to see who from my Bluefin Squadron had called over to me. "What is it?" I shouted back in the general direction of my crew. "The crow's nest has spotted something. It looks like a smuggler ship." Ah, yes, the Smugglers. We were neither allies nor enemies. They would help us up to a point, while also always looking out for themselves. I only trusted them as far as my cannons could fire at them. "Fine, fine. Come about and let's see what they're up to." Minutes later the smuggler ship was upon us and I shouted "Ahoy!" by Greg Loring-Albright from Leder Games.

I like when games come in a pencil case kind of bag! I know that a lot of people hate games in tins but I've not heard a lot of talk about pencil case bags SUM8 is an exciting looking tile placement game with variable board, curved tiles with dice pips at each end. SUM8 is an abstract, 2-player game designed by #IlesGuran and #LeanneGray and is published by @turnupgames.

Azul Stained glass of Sintra was a nice surprise today. It has replay ability, scoring is much more straightforward, and is limited to six rounds. Still like the original better. #tabletopgames #newgames #boardgames #tilelayinggames #setcollection #azulboardgame #stainedglassofsintra https://www.instagram.com/p/BuPkDoVhjC7/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1crqir6vot01m

Forbidden Sky is indeed more difficult than the previous versions in the 'Forbidden ' series but just as fun. You connect a real electrical circuit then the rocket ship lights up and makes liftoff sounds. #boardgames #cooperativegames #tilelayinggames #tabletopgames #newgames https://www.instagram.com/p/BrvpBg8hhXw/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=37iqaisar6tn
