The Syndicate

Oh man I've played Everyone is John I think 3 times now with big groups of friends. Last time my boyfriend GMed and made some small changes to the rules but idr exactly. It is REALLY funny, you can be really creative with it and it's easy for people who don't really play rpgs (like me). Great party game.

I actually just played that a few weeks ago!! Pretty fun, parts of it were surprisingly similar to Dixit if you've ever played that (the cool surreal art style of the cards and trying to get certain people to guess an association with it)

The art is so awesome and I really like how you want at least 1 but not all of the players to guess it so you can sort of tailor an inside reference to associate with the card. Super fun for friend groups.

Ohh my god I love Tokaido. So pretty and really well designed. One of my faves.

we got gloomhaven.... took us like 4 hours to learn/set up/start the first round, but once we got going it's pretty fun but still pretty overwhelming

we also played codenames (just the normal one) with my bf's family, have played it with them a few times before and it's always fun/kinda frustrating but we played another game too, one that my boyfriend just bought and we've been really enjoying called Gizmos -- I'd highly recommend it, if you've played Splendor that's kind of the closest thing I'd compare it to but with a couple different mechanics (plus some silly art and a cool set of different-colored marbles that represent the resources). the rules can lead to some crazy action chains that are very satisfying to set up

Good luck. I’m about 40 scenarios in, it’s still good times.

Haha we've been playing pretty much every weekend now, my boyfriend is totally obsessed.
