I went to a board game trade fair ("Spiel doch! Am Bodensee"). I had my kids with me, so I did mostly play family and kids games with them, but also found cough some cough games for me. But now I'm broke LOL.

Anyway, I welcome Hens ("Hennen"), Factory 42 (german edition; signed by the designer), Dune:Imperium and Everdell to my collection. I also got bear and puma tokens for Cryptid, as missing an areal and needing to correct a yes/no was always a strong hint to someone's rule and has ruined a game already a few times.

My kids also got some new games, but the only one of them, that I liked personally was Café del Gatto

Damn. That was this weekend? We thought about going as well but lost sight of it.

No, the weekend before: 02.06.23 - 04.06.23

It was really nice. Some huge games in the entrance hall (e.g. Carcassonne with ~25x25cm tiles) and an exhibition Halle filled about 2/3 with booths of game shops, game designers and game publishers and about 1/3 of the hall full of tables with chairs and a huge booth where you could lend games for free to try them out.
