San Juan: The Game

San Juan

Joey came over Saturday with a new card game to play. San Juan really hit the spot since it's fast and simple enough not to feel like a big commitment but complicated enough not to bore you after one or two iterations.

I feel so lucky that my brother gives talks at conferences all over the world just to be introduced to board games I might enjoy. (That is the purpose, right?) Please keep Cory Doctorow's cold to yourself, though. Thanks!

San Juan is the card came, Puerto Rico is the board game.

I have them on my wanna play list, but no personal experience with them.
