I aspire to be a contemplative, non-competetive gamer. Card games and middle-weight board games have the most appeal for me; I tend to enjoy simple yet novel mechanisms, and great production quality. My rating system--an 11 Point scale (0-10)--is broken down into three sub-categories: PRODUCTION QUALITY (0-3 points): (0) Production design interferes with play; home-made quality (1) Nothing special (2) Attractive, functional, durable (3) Near perfect EAGERNESS TO PLAY AGAIN (0-2 points): (0) Won't request; might play (1) Might request; will play (2) Will request ENJOYMENT (0-5 points): (0) Would rather have spent my time elsewise (1) Nothing special (2) Mildly fun, interesting, and engaging (3) Fun, interesting, and engaging (4) Very fun, interesting, and engaging (5) Amazingly fun, interesting, and engaging
My "Hot 10" list comprises ten games that my friend Eli and I hope to play together 10 times each during 2009. Update 2009-10-26: We have only 7 plays remaining (Blue Moon, Yspahan x3, Galaxy Trucker x3).
