    Throughout the work week I played at least one solo game each of:

    • Hadrian’s Wall
    • Rove
    • Sprawlopolis
    • Solar Storm
    • Palm Island

    My wife was finally ready to learn Spirit Island this past weekend and we played three games total. Somewhere during the second game on Saturday it started clicking for her and she started really enjoying it, and on Sunday she suggested that we play it again.

    We usually play Carcassone, Azul, Sagrada, or Patchwork (which I love), but I’m happy that she enjoyed Spirit Island as much as she did and that we have a good coop game to play.

      I’m jealous. My GF never quite clicked with Spirit Island. A real shame because it’s an amazing game!

        Hopefully she’s willing to try it again, but if not that’s okay too. I could tell my wife was not that excited about it by the end of the first game, but we tend to play a new game at least twice back to back to help cement the rules which she was willing to do. Once she started making her own moves and suggesting what we could focus on next she started getting into it, and I was stoked when she wanted to play again the next day.

          I’ve since sold the game but it’s alright. I get to play it pretty frequently in my group.
