Tonight we had a couple of run club friends over for some snacks and board games. Chris and Shauna met each other at run club and have been dating for awhile. I keep waiting for an announcement! Any day now I expect they will announce their engagement.
Last year we had them over to play Killer Bunnies. This year we decided to crack open a board game we bought about 5 years ago but had never played - Party Playoff.
Party Playoff is from the same company that created Cranium, which is one of my favourite games. The premise is interesting. There are four categories - places, people, things and actions. Cards are randomly placed in each category. Each round a pair squares off against each, advancing until there is a final winner. You have to argue and persuade people to pick the choice you want - ultimately hoping that your pick makes it to the end. Kind of a different game. I think this first try we were just figuring it out. It could get a lot more strategic as you got the hang of it.
It was nice to have some time with friends. We don't see Chris and Shauna too often but they are really good people. We're lucky to have so many good people in our lives.
