I went to Settlers Cafe on Saturday to re-live the days when playing boardgames were a regular pasttime. The cafe has been around for 3 years, nice concept where people can gather to play cards, boardgames, eat, drink and make hella of noise without worrying disturbing the neighbours or dirtying the house if one were to invite friends over. There are SO many games to choose from, you have the classics like Boggle, Scrabble, Monopoly, Cluedo, Risk, even old Maid card games! The staff are always there to help recommend the popular games and explain the rules on how to play etc.
There were 6 of us and we played from 7pm-11pm, each person coughing out only about $12, quite reasonable.
These are the games we played, you might want to check it out:
Sequence: 3 teams of 2 players. Aim is to form a row (diagonally, horizontal, vertical) of five using the chips and place the chip according to the card you draw.
Blokus Trigon: New version of the ever-addictive Blokus. Now it comes in a hexagonal shape, 6 sided but still 4 players. The shapes are more complicated and it's more difficult to plan your next moves unlike the previous square shaped Blokus.
I'm the Boss: Abit complicated. Each player tries to make business deal and get as much money as possible. You have to negiotiate with other players and see if they want to join you in the partnership.
Dragon Delta: Fun! Aim of the game is to construct a plank across stones to get across to the other side of the island. Made a blooper by making a illogical step at the beginning of the game, malu but provide entertainment for my friends, haha :)
Jurassic Jumble: Ideal for ice-breaking or warm-up to get everyone in the mood. Something like Heart Attack where you pass the cards and exchange with others to form a set of matching cards, in this case, a category of dinosaurs. Whoever wins will retrieve a bone from the middle of the table and the last one without the bone is the loser.
