Carcassonne (iOS)


I love that you just KNOW there's going to be an expansions released for Carcassonne around Christmas. This is an evergreen for us and a new expansion is great to keep us coming back. It took me a while to buy it because at the time it was the most expensive app I had (that's changed now...) but it was totally worth it and I wish I had bought it sooner! It lead to me getting my wife and our neighbors switching to ios so we could all play; now that's a successful app conversion!

Torchlight II (PC)


Dropped in for a little Torchlight II tonight with the boys. It's always starts a little rough - figuring out all the shortcut keys and strategies that I was using, plus sorting though all the inventory crap - not remembering what equipment I was building towards.


Connection problems always seem to be a problem but once we figured out which mission we were going to complete things were a little better. I am always impressed by the diversity of the art work in Torchlight - good stuff always.


Wasn't a great session or anything but it's always a good vehicle to catch up with the boys, maybe if we do it more often they'll get better - until then, I'm back on Neuroshima Hex and Heavy Metal Thunder and there's always Geometry Wars 3....
