Got this game for free through twitch free games which turned out to be a surprising gem for me:

Dead in Vinland - Turn based group survival management game with some exploration and combat mechanics but the real juice of the game is in the writing and character development.

Story overall is ehhhh but it's just a stage for the characters you meet :>

The original creators are doing a follow-up!

After the lackluster "sequels" (Star Control 3 and Star Control: Origins) that were made largely without the original developers input, I had pretty much given up the franchise for dead till now.

For those of you not in the know, you can get Star Control 2 for free on Steam and see what the pinnacle of DOS adventure gaming was all about :D

Nothing like TLC in foot prep to make things taste even better.

As a fan of foot massages, I couldn't agree more :>

Haha I think there was one time we played Catan where people started trading futures contracts on someone's wheat production. It went something like "I'll sell you this contract for Jimbo's next two wheat production rolls if you don't build that road over there." :>

Hm I wouldn't have guessed since those are generally considered "family games". I guess the negotiation aspect of those games can get pretty heated if folks get a bit petty and play kingmaker by giving away all their resources to someone to end the game faster when they find out they're in a losing position :o

Aren't they usually called FLGS (Friendly local game store)? Or is yours just decidedly unfriendly? :>

You gotta watch Spaceballs or there isn't any context for the greatest movie of all time, Spaceballs II: The Search For More Money!
