This was my "Spiel haul" from 2006
I only own Phoenix (and wished I kept Drachenland) but I still own and use the underlying table.
Below is this year's haul. Heavily focused on solo (right) and gaming with Nathalie (left). You'll read about them as I'm going to pick up my "played" posts again.
I'm curious to hear your thoughts on Boon Lake.
And Drachenland is the only game of your first haul I own.
Freaky Frogs is already on my cart, I'm waiting for other games to be added and beat the free shipping threshold. Beacon Patrol I'll order as soon as it gets available, and For One: Galaktix as soon as the English version gets released. I have already pre-ordered Light in the Dark.
I'm contemplating getting Landmarks at some point and I'm not sure I can't resist adding MLEM to my giant Knizia collection.
So my haul probably would have had some significant overlap with yours!!!
I hope you had fun in Essen.
Hope you'll enjoy Boonlake. So far it's a bit weird for me. Definitely needs more plays before I know if I really like it.
I'll put Freaky Frogs from Outaspace on my wishlist. That looks interesting and fun.
