I love playing board games. For the last year or so I’ve been looking for board and card games that can be played by two players. Spousemeister and I used to play board games like fiends. Now, around Christmas/New Years and till the snow melts, it’s a good time to play.
We haven’t tried any but Dominion yet, but it was really cool, and I could see for the first time the appeal of a deck building game–I think it’s accurate to call it that.

Kill Doctor Lucky (I think my husband doesn’t appreciate this title much, but I love mysteries and it seems to have that element.) “A family board game of cold-blooded murder!” What’s not to like?
