Halloween boardgaming

This saturday we had a Halloween gaming party and we did enjoy the gaming with the support of cake and cocktails.

We started with a game of Betrayal at House on the Hill inkluding the expansion. We got a very nice and fitting scenario, which resulted in a stand off in the end.

After that it was all Codenames for the rest of the evening - which was again very funny.

Winter (tyres) are coming

This saturday I went to my father in the house and helped him with his new PC. In return he helped me with changing the tyres for the winter season and for lunch we went to a nearby Oktoberfest.

Back home we then did the chores and I baked something for today's Halloween Gaming party.

In the evening we just went onto the couch and watched the most recent episodes of our tv series.

Thank god it's friday

This friday it was a longer shopping trip in Mariahilf again. First I shopped at myMuesli followed by Planet Harry, where I got some smaller new games. On my way home I stopped and shopped at Temaya, to bring home some nice dinner for the whole family.

In the evening we paid a short visit to Guild Wars 2 and then went onto the couch to continue watching Ash vs. Evil Dead.

MIttagessen

Auch der Donnerstag gibt etwas her.

Piza Tyrolia (Tirolerspeck, Mais, Tomaten, Käse, Schinken, Zwiebel)


National holiday

Yesterday was a national holiday in Austria, so we didn't have to go to work. At noon we went for a walk through Böhmischer Prater and otherwise we just did our chores.

After some sessions of cat entertainment and a short visit to the Halloween festival in Guild Wars 2 we went onto the couch for the latest episodes of our tv series.

Sunday - some free time at last

This sunday we slept longer and after breakfast we went on a walk through Böhmischer Prater.
In the afternoon we played some of the Halloween festival in Guild Wars 2.

Later I baked a soda bread and some cake. Some time later we finally went onto the couch and only watched one episode of Kalkofes Mattscheibe before we went to bed very tired.

Boardgaming

This saturday we had another board gaming afternoon with friends, but first we had to go grocery shopping and do the chores.

When we arrived at our friends, we started playing as soon as we had coffee and cake.

We started with Crimson Creek, a game from Kickstarter in the mood of a slasher horror flick (like Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street). A mad (and dead) murderer take possession of one of the players and everyone needs to survive long enough to name the traitor among them. We started quite bloody - everyone except two died in the first act - but in the end the mad murdered was caught.


The second game was some kind of bluff game with dice named Skull King. You have to guess how many rounds you will win, but you have to roll dice to determine who wins each round. Dice game + me = bad combination.


After that we went into space and explored a bit with Roll for the Galaxy. Since we played it quite recently I could explain the rules rather quick and we could play it very fast. I think the others liked the game.


Then it was time for some dungeon crawl with the Ugly Snouts Assault. The scenario we played was rather easy - or we were quite lucky - so we had no problems beating it. Next time it's the final showdown with the baddies.


As an in between game we then played Codenames.

And the conclusion of the evening was Der wahre Walter, where a sentence it read out loud with the word WALTER as a substitut for one or more words. The players have to guess which words the current player who read out the sentence would be using. This was getting funnier by the minute, as some constellations were hillarious.

Shopping again on friday

This friday after work we went to Mariahilf for shopping. On our way there we went for lunch at le Pho.



After that we continued to Brew Age (finally the Eisknacker was available!), myMuesli and last but not least Planet Harry, where we didn't find anything new for us, but bought some games as small presents.

Afterwards we went back home - without sushi - and fed and entertained the cats.

In the evening it was couch time again and we watched some of the recent episodes of our series.

More LEGO Dimensions

Yesterday I went out again after I came home from work to buy some cheap LEGO Dimensions packs. We are now more or less ready for everything the levels throw at us, until the next wave hits us in November...

After that I assembled the mini figs at home to check if they are all working - and they did. The rest of the evening we spent watching the latest episodes of The Flash and Arrow.

Auch der letzte Tag in der Kantine bringt keine Highlights.

Some baking off

Yesterday after work we entertained the cats at home and then we went to the Halloween festival in Guild Wars 2. We collected quite the loot - although nothing fancy - and after that I went baking a lime and coconut meringue pie from The Great British Bake Off.



The evening entertainment consisted of the most recent episodes of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Timeless.

City trip

This saturday we went to the local Hard Rock Cafe for lunch, since I had to use my birthday coupon.


After that we walked through the city and I took some pictures.


We concluded our trip on Mariahilferstrasse as we did our weekly shopping trip one day late - especially Planet Harry got some nice things for me.


Afterwards we went home where our cats waited for us. So we had to entertain them a lot until we were allowed to sit on the couch again and watch a movie. We decided on The Man from U.N.C.L.E. - a very funny remake of a 1960s tv show about two spies, one from the USA and one from Russia.

Good food, good game

After we were full, we went to Morawa at Wetsbahnhof and home after that, where the cats waited already.



My dear went out to a friend and so I spent the afternoon playing some LEGO Dimensions alone, but continued to play toegther when she came back. Now we have finished the story line, there are many worlds and levels still to be explored.
