Hi everyone, I thought I'd say hi in this new community as a new moderator. I'm Foon (she/her), and I love table top games. My partner and I have been gaming a lot in the past 5 years or so, and we have a bunch of friends that turned into boardgamers too, and boardgamers that we turned into friends. So on average we get almost a game a day in.

I'm excited to discuss all things tabletop gaming with you all. Some of my favourite games are Gloomhaven/Frosthaven, Spirit Island, Aeon's End, Terraforming Mars.

What are y'all's favourite games?

I am basically permanently obsessed with Spirit Island.

Such a good game, right?! I really like how different games get with the different spirits and adversaries. It's also one of the few games I enjoy playing solo.

Do you use any of the expansions?

Yeah -- while I have a deep and abiding love for Ocean, most of my favorite spirits are from Jagged Earth, I think. I kind of like playing the ridiculously complicated ones to figure out how they work, like the Hummingbird one.

I like both "solitaire" solo and play two-handed by myself. They're different kinds of challenges, which is nice. Most of my board game friends aren't local so I'm basically constantly on the lookout for things that work well solo.

Yeah some of my favourites are from JE too, I particularly like Finder and Downpour. And Lure of the Deep Wilderness, although it's very much dependent on which adversary we're playing against. Although I have a lot of love for the base game spirits too, especially when we're introducing new people to it I tend to play one of my staples Rampant Green or Thunderspeaker. And of course Ocean is awesome, though someone else tends to snap that up quickly!
