Dusty Old Games

Nope, not dusty old "James", but those older games on my shelf that aren't getting played. Over the next few months, I want to try to get out some of my favourite and forgotten gems.

Some of the classics, and many more of these not-so-classics, that I'd like to get to the table again are:

Bohnanza
Frank's Zoo
Goldbrau
Hoity Toity
In the Shadow of the Emperor
Klunker
Kremlin
Mykerinos
Mu
Poleconomy (with the corrupt government rules of course!)
Pueblo
Samurai Swords
Streetcar
Tikal
Torres
TV Wars
Vino

For the tomorrow's Games Day (June 26th), I'm going to bring out:

Bohnanza (maybe with some expansions)
Streetcar
TV Wars

This barely touches the surface of my 250+ games, and I know that a lot of other members of the clubs have significantly more unplayed games than I do.

If you're interested in playing one of these games, or have a bunch of unplayed games that you'd like to get some love, or even have some classic game that you'd like to see one of us bring out, add them here, and maybe we can get some more play out of these old "classics".

Re: Dusty Old Games

At the last Games Day I was able to convince a few players to try their hand at Streetcar. It was a surprisingly good game, better than I remembered.

Next Games Day, I'll bring out TV Wars again. I think this is one of the Avalon Hill games that deserves a reprint, with only minor revisions. It has a great theme, and has some mechanics that could be put to good use (Auctions, Competitive Scheduling and bluffing elements). At it's heart, it really is a resource management game that reminds me a little of Fabrik der Träume/Hollywood Blockbuster /Dream Factory.

This month I'm be bringing out:

TV Wars
Klunker
Tikal

Along with some "Cult of the New":
Egizia

If you're interested in a spot, drop a response here.

Re: Dusty Old Games

Finally I got to play TV Wars again. The game was interesting, and probably not as fun as I remembered it, but it has a ton of potential to be "re-imagined" as a Euro-styled game.
