I got to try Red7 which is really quite a tricky little card game which I failed miserably at, so I am hoping have to have another go soon to see if I can do any better. I'm not holding out much hope though. I also got to play my Mice & Mystics. Having painted up the figures last year I have only had one opportunity to play with them since. I just managed to pip Phil to the post by a very close margin in a game of Kingsburg, so he completely thrashed me at Patchwork. It's a sign that things are running smoothly when we get a chance to play games at all!

We had several prizes to give out over the weekend:

The winner of our raffle for those who bought their tickets early was Andrew Lawson, who received a copy of Elysium

Andrew receiving his prize

On Sunday Steve Howe from Librium Games donated one of his games for a raffle prize too.

The Games Review winners were:
