Maybe a little bit too easy for your 12 yo, but still worth a try:

  • Stuffed Fables is a coop adventure game for kids where you have to make decisions together and talk about your feelings

  • Zombie Teenz Evolution is an easy and fast legacy coop game where more rules and mechanics are slowly added over time

That’s a nice collection you got there. Many classics and a quite heavy game like Root.

And despite it’s simplicity, ‘6 Nimmt’ is also great, especially with higher player counts.

I played Spirit Island for the first time on Tabletop Simulator and it felt kinda cluttered and too hard to anticipate what happens next. But playing it at a real table with all the little pieces was completely different. We played many times with 4 players since and added the expansions only after a while. The base game is completely fine in my opinion and doesn’t feel incomplete.

I didn’t really get into AH LCG. I only played it in TTS and felt like I had little control over the game. There were so many random elements that could affect all subsequent games that we abandoned it in frustration. And isn’t the price much higher with all the campaigns than SI?

I totally get what you mean by lower entry barrier. In the end, that’s also by design for LCGs. But the completionist in me looks at the price tag for the whole collection in horror (no pun intended). Maybe after what you wrote I still give it another try, so thanks for sharing your experience.

When you play SI for the first time on TTS, I highly recommend playing with someone who knows the game already. Scripts in TTS are nice and all, but it’s even harder to understand how everything works when they are doing stuff so fast that you cannot follow.

Ich sehe es nicht so eng in diesem Kontext. Solange klar ist, was gemeint ist…

Allerdings stört es mich sehr, wenn in meiner sehr teuren Tageszeitung pro Seite 3-5 Fehler enthalten sind (übrigens genau wie in deinem Kommentar, auf den ich gerade antworte 😉).

Bedenke, dass es auch jetzt schon einen Höchstbetrag von 1.800€ monatlich an Elterngeld gibt. Das entspricht bei 65% vom Gehalt ca. 2770€ Netto im Monat. Von diesem Nettohöchstbetrag werden weitere Zuverdienste im Bezugszeitraum 1:1 abgezogen, was dazu führen kann, dass nur der Mindestbetrag von 300€ ausgezahlt wird.

In deinem Rechenbeispiel ist es also ein Unterschied zwischen ca. 4.500€ (+ Zuverdienste) bis 6.000€ aktuell und 4.200€ (+ Zuverdienste) zukünftig, was gar nicht mehr so dramatisch klingt.

I may be an exception, but I really enjoy most Ubisoft games. I love the Assassin’s Creed series and have completed most of them with all the Achievemens. Rayman was also great and I haven’t skipped a game of the Anno series either.

However, I have to admit that I often need breaks between games in a series and that I buy the games several years late, so the Complete Editions only cost 20-30€. That weakens many points of criticism like bugs shortly after release and costly micro transactions.

I completely agree. Both of the problems you mention are solved in Jaws of the Lion, so I would recommend any newbie to start with that.
