Machu Picchu (Peru)

Machu Picchu is an ancient Inca city from the 15th century in Peru. The 172 buildings extend approximately 530 meters long and 200 meters wide.

At 2,438 meters above sea level, the ruins straddle the ridge between two peaks: Huayna Picchu, meaning “young mountain” and Machu Picchu, meaning “old mountain” in Quechua.

A masterpiece of Inca architecture, it was abandoned before its construction was completed during the collapse of the Inca Empire. A sacred city forgotten for centuries, the site is said to have hosted the emperor Pachacútec.

It is Huayna Picchu which overlooks the site and which can be seen in most photographs of the city.

Around Huayna Picchu and on both sides of the city flows the Vilcanota-Urubamba river which describes a large arc below a 600 meter cliff.

Welcome to a new opus of “JJV Offs”!

Kingdom of sand: playful shifting sands

The playful world is always on the move despite the challenges encountered along the way…

In this kingdom where there are many fun nuggets, there is bound to be a game so that you can have a good time with family or friends...

The world of board games has been evolving for several years towards original and always innovative forms.

Whether you are looking for more of a moment of relaxation or a game with complex mechanics to build your strategy, you will find this at the heart of board games.

I like to play quite quietly like with games like Splendor, Butine or Hive.

But I also like to play in a more advanced way like with games like Roll for the Galaxy, Terra Formas or Packet Row.

I like to play quick or longer games depending on the time I have and what I feel like at the moment.

I am very happy to be able to share this passion with you and your loved ones!

I will continue on my small scale as an independent store to bring you closer to the playful world with passion and enthusiasm.

Because once you start playing, you get a taste for it and you want more ;)

Thank you for contributing, thanks to the diversity of your tastes for games, to the development of ever more choices within the gaming world.

The gaming world is moving forward thanks to us, to you and all the players who offer us their games, distribute them and make them known!

Thank you to the playful world for always providing us with more surprises and discoveries, keep it up, we love it. ;)

Hello everyone !

Today we are going to talk about the Kingdom of Sand!

It's up to you to build your oases in 20 to 40 minutes, from 16 years old and from 3 to 6 players, and regenerate the magic of the kingdom of sand!

The Sand Kingdom, a parallel reality source of magic, is dying.

After thousands of years of overuse, magic has almost disappeared.

Faced with peril, the Queen of Ragusa embarked on a quest to save her home, traveling to the Kingdom of Sand.

With the kingdom in peril, time bends and reality shifts uncontrollably in the physical world.

As a royal magician, you must act quickly to help him stabilize and regenerate magic.

As she travels the plane awakening the power of the glyphs, you, as the royal magician, must act quickly to assemble these glyphs and stabilize the magic to rebuild the Sand Kingdom.

Who will help the queen save Ragusa and become the hero of the Sand Kingdom?A single player mode is possible.

The game has a simple mode for easy and quick initiation and familiarization with its mechanisms.

An advanced mode, including the use of special powers, adds tactical depth and replayability.

Hello everyone !

Torres del Paine National Park (Chile)

Torres del Paine National Park is a national park in Chile located between the Andes mountain range and the Patagonian steppe.

Between 3.5 million years ago and 14,000 years ago, glaciations shaped the landscape to remove the upper layers of rock and give the park its current appearance.

Covering an area of ​​181,414 hectares, its main function is the conservation of landscapes, ecosystems, species and genetic diversity of the Paine massif.

Its surface is characterized by its landscape heterogeneity, where mountains, glaciers, valleys, ponds and large lakes converge.

It takes its name from three emblematic granite formations of the del Paine massif: the Torres (Towers) del Paine.

12 million years ago, in the Miocene, the northward movement of the boundary between the Antarctic plate and the Nazca plate caused the intrusion of a 10 km by 20 km laccolith with a thickness of 2,000 mr.

This intrusion created the heart of the Paine massif. The territory also has some small, older intrusions dating from 29 million years ago.

Hello everyone !

Welcome to a new opus of “Offs du JJV”!

The magic of board games.

Entering the immersive world of board games is rediscovering the simple joys of gathering around a table.

From the laughter that erupts during a round of bluffing, the friendly competition that fuels strategic battles, or the suspenseful anticipation of a surprising twist, they foster a sense of togetherness and lasting memories.

Board games have evolved considerably over time.

 They can emphasize strategy and resource management or encourage collaboration and teamwork.

With such a wide range of choices, there's a board game for everyone, making it an inclusive and accessible form of entertainment.

 Physically manipulating playing pieces, rolling dice and shuffling cards engages our senses and stimulates cognitive functions.

Board games offer face-to-face interaction, eye contact, and the ability to read facial expressions and body language.

These social elements help improve communication skills, empathy and the development of emotional intelligence.

Beyond their entertainment value, many games promote critical thinking, problem solving, and strategic planning.

Players must analyze complex situations, make decisions and adapt to changing circumstances.

Additionally, games often incorporate themed elements that introduce players to historical events, scientific concepts, or cultural phenomena, making learning an engaging and immersive experience.

Online platforms provide virtual gaming experiences, connecting individuals from different parts of the world.

Board game conventions and get-togethers create spaces where enthusiasts can share their love for the hobby, discover new games, and forge friendships.

Digital integration, companion apps, and augmented reality have expanded gameplay possibilities, enhancing immersion without losing the charm of physical components.

Additionally, crowdfunding platforms have allowed independent designers to bring their creative visions to life, driving a wave of unique and unconventional games that push the boundaries of what a board game can be.

Board games provide respite, reminding us of the joy of human connection and the thrill of shared experiences.

 They bridge the generation gap, promote social interaction, and provide a tangible and immersive entertainment option.

So gather your friends, and let the magic of board games transport you to a world of fun, laughter and unforgettable memories.

Hello everyone !

Today we are going to talk about Baf!

Brave heroes, from 3 to 5 players for 20 minutes, defeat the monsters to win!

In Baf, players are adventurers rushing through a perilous dungeon to root out evil, earning coins, and upgrading their abilities along the way. After three levels (with three monster towers in each level), they face the Dungeon Lord and the Dragon.

Each player has two heroes, one for their right hand and one for their left hand.

Players simultaneously reveal two dungeon maps each and quickly get their hands on the maps they want their heroes to fight.

If you win, you claim the card as loot or gear that increases your hero's abilities.

 Equipment cards are placed partially below your hero card, with the ability symbol sticking out.

This way, the four different types of abilities – Melee, Ranged, Magic, and Stealth – are built in one direction each, starting from your hero.

For particularly strong monsters, your heroes can combine their power by hitting the monster with both of your hands.

Each player controls 2 brave heroes who have joined a party of adventurers.

 They go together to explore a dangerous dungeon on 3 floors.

At each round reveal the monsters of the turn then quickly slap them to get rid of them and strip them of their powers and treasures.

 But don't get the wrong hand because each one represents a hero with his strengths and weaknesses!

It might just be the monster slapping you!

Hello everyone !

Lavandula, fairy of legend.

Another version of the legend says that the Lavandula Fairy wept, not on her drawing, but directly on the Provençal soil, giving birth to the lavender fields.

Once upon a time there was a pretty fairy with blue eyes and blond hair named Lavandula.

She was looking for a place to settle down after a long journey where she had twirled lightly from the Luberon to the Lure mountain, via Ventoux.

She leafed through the pages of her notebook, where she had drawn the places crossed.

She stopped on the page of Haute Provence, whose then arid and wild landscapes were sad.

So sad that Lavandula began to sob and purple tears streamed down her notebook.

Wanting to dry the tears that had smeared her drawing, she passed her hand. In vain.

This intense purple spread all over the page.

In order to repair this error, Lavandula drew a large section of blue sky above this new landscape, to make forget this everywhere widespread mauve.

The lavender fields were born and since then they have been lighting up Provence!

Today we are going to talk about Gold Up!

Moussaillons, from 2 to 10 players for 15 minutes, find the treasures!

In Gold Up, you are a pirate whose objective is to collect as many gold coins as possible.

These treasures are locked in chests that you will need to open with the right keys.

The color of each chest indicates the color of the key that opens it.

Be the smartest by using your keys at the right time to recover the biggest chests or steal the loot of other pirates using the special cards!

But be careful, robbing a pirate is a dangerous game and his revenge could be terrible...

Collect one of the 7 sets of chests using the correct keys.

Use the Joker key to open any chest.

Steal your opponents' keys using the Key Thief card.


Steal your opponents' chests using the Chest Thief card.

Arrange the chests in 3,2,1,2,3 on the table then distribute 5 key cards to each player.

Collect the chests of one of the 7 series using the corresponding color keys or joker keys that replace any color.

Steal keys or chests from other pirates with special cards, but be careful not to get them stolen back.

Once there are no more chests in the center of the table, the point values ​​of each chest won by the players are counted.

Whoever has the highest value of gold coins wins the game.

On board, sailors!

The Dragon of Mondragon.

The village of Mondragon is Mont Dragon, surmounted by its Château du Dragonnet!

The Drac, a winged, amphibian monster, had the face and shoulders of a young man on a reptile body (as described by Frédéric Mistral) and resided in the Rhône.

He went out regularly to feast on the inhabitants, especially the young girls, terrorizing the population by ransoming them.

Tired of undergoing the incessant assaults of the monster, the lord of the village, Guilhem, launched a desperate appeal.

Anyone who managed to kill the beast would receive his daughter Guillemette in marriage and the lordship of the village as a reward.

One day, a valiant knight, Arnaud, presented himself to take up the challenge.

At the cost of an epic fight, Arnaud brought down the beast, marrying Guillemette and becoming the new lord of the village, renamed Mondragon!

Hello everyone !


Today we are going to talk about Patatrap Quest!


Go on a quest, for 2 to 4 players for 10 minutes, and find the objects to defeat the big bosses!

 

For a very, very long time, the castle of Patatrap has been regularly invaded by all sorts of threatening and more or less evil creatures.


This is how the order of the intrepid was created, bringing together all the adventurers and adventurers of the region ready to defend the castle of Patatrap and its fabulous Tower with 1000 mirrors!


In turn, each player must move their Character token on the trapdoors of the game board. Use the mirrors to see the contents of the trapdoors.


The goal?


Collect useful equipment to fight the final Big Bad!


The first player who manages to land three blows wins the game. But watch out for trapped hatches, you'll have to remember their location...


Finally, unless the elf, the ghost or even the thief decides to get involved and make a mess.


A real dungeon crawler for children! Includes 5 different endlessly replayable adventures.
Do you dare to face Sheuloub the spider, Michel the werewolf, Elvys the vampire, Smok the dragon or even Babakazoo the cursed king?


To win Patatrap Quest, you must be the first player to successfully attack the "Big Bad" in the castle three times.
The castle consists of a wall of mirrors surrounding a central pillar. On a turn, roll the dice, then move a distance equal to the face of the die or the sum of the faces of the die.

When you land on a space in the castle, your character lowers a lever and whatever is depicted under that lever is then visible in the mirror.


Sometimes you need to scavenge gear, sometimes you need to trade boards, and sometimes you do something else.
When you have the right gear and can access the stairway to the top of the pillar, you can take on the Big Bad.


Draw the topmost token from its stack, then look at it secretly. If you can discard the represented object, you recover this token; otherwise, you're kicked out of the castle and have to start moving in again.

 

The first player to collect three tokens wins.


Patatrap Quest includes five Big Bads, each with its own stack of chips.

Hello everyone !

The Yule log that…poops (Catalonia)

In Catalonia, there is a unique tradition called Tió de Nadal, which vulgarly translates to “Christmas log”.

The hollowed-out log comes with a face, legs, and a little red hat, and starting December 8, families “feed” it every night, filling it with gifts and sweets.

They also put a blanket over the log to keep it warm.

On Christmas Eve, the log is placed in the (unlit) fireplace, and family members take turns hitting it with a stick, ordering it to defecate the gifts and sweets, while singing traditional songs.

After the beating, family members reach under the blanket of the log to retrieve the presents.

Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !

Welcome to a new opus of “Offs du JJV”!

June 2022: 4 years store.

I had the pleasure in June 2022 to share a privileged moment with all of you during the game activities and during the store's anniversary on Saturday June 25, 2022.

I didn't even stammer too much during the speech in store and yet it's not my forte...^^

And as always my guests were there and ready to play and have a good time together.

After looking for the key game with One Key, practicing different challenges with Olémains, for some you even played werewolf at 45!

I will repeat myself, but I love your enthusiasm and your unfailing enthusiasm when it comes to discovering the personalized animations that I am preparing for you.

I like to design unique game times, because I love to offer you a unique experience like you...

Animating with you is for me really playing the game of the playful world.

When I think that five years ago, I struggled to offer game animations, because no one knew what it consisted of.

And then, I had partners who trusted me like Mac Donald of Saint Romain in Viennois or town halls.

Then finally, I am now delighted to be able to say that my outdoor activities are complete and booked in advance. :)

This 4th year allowed me to start a very positive turn for the animations and for the sales in store or online.

I'm so happy that you continue to be present on a daily basis that I always have new ideas that come to me to share even more original times with you. ;)

I am satisfied to have held on despite the covid and to continue to love sharing with you my passion for board games. ;)

Good day and good game ;)

On 09/02/2024

Hello everyone !

 

Today we are going to talk about Team Team!

 

Together, from 2 to 6 players for 10 to 20 minutes, find which animal is where!

 

As you might guess from the name, in Team Team you play as a team, with each team consisting of a speaker and a builder.

 

Each builder has a set of five tiles, with the tiles featuring five shapes, five colors, and five animals; each team's tiles have a different layout of these features.

 

Each builder lays his tiles in a row in front of him, and he wishes to arrange these tiles according to a pattern known only to the speaker, the pattern being the same for all teams.


At the start of a round, one of the speakers reveals a sound card, like "Woof!" or "Bong!", then they place a pattern card on a screen that is only visible through the speakers.

 

The pattern can be 3-5 animals in a row, 3-5 shapes in a row, or 3-5 colors in a row. The game then begins. Each builder begins by placing a finger on two different tiles, then their interlocutor:

 

Make the sound once - Bong! - if the builder has to finger different tiles.

Make the sound twice - Bong! Bof! — whether the builder should swap the finger tiles.

Make the sound three times - Bong! Bof! Bof! — if all the tiles are laid out correctly.

At this point, the builder slaps the multicolored tile in the center of the table.

 

If that team's tile layout is correct - and with only 3-4 tiles depicted on a template card, the tiles must be in the correct order and adjacent to each other - then they claim the template card as a point.

 

If they are incorrect, each other team scores a point.

 

The first team to score 3 points wins.

 

Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !


Lucky cobwebs (Ukraine)


Would you feel lucky if you found a spider web on your Christmas tree?


Probably not. But Ukrainians associate cobwebs with good omens.


This legend is actually taken from a popular tale, in which a poor family grew a Christmas tree from a pine cone.


The children were excited to decorate it, but the family could not afford decorations.


Sensing the family's desperation, the spiders spun shimmering webs of silk around the tree, which turned to silver and gold when the sun rose in the morning, leaving the family with a beautifully decorated tree.


Even today, Ukrainian families decorate their trees with cobwebs for good luck.

From 2021, I was able to resume the animations with you and I was very happy about it.

Always on the lookout for new things to offer you to spend good fun times with you, I love to offer you unique and original times during the entertainment.

 Whether it's with my animations, the coeur ludique or the fada team, I was very happy to find you in animations.

Giving time to those who appreciate it and allowing me to share unforgettable moments with them is priceless.

 And when you can also animate with teams as fantastic as the Fada team or the playful heart, it's just the icing on the playful cake!

Return also orders from town hall and associations or even for schools show that you trust me and that makes me very happy.

 I love every opportunity to develop the playful world on my small scale and share it with you, it's magic.

 Every moment with you is unique and priceless.

 They are just as beneficial to me as they are to you!

Thank you for all these good times and see you soon in animation. ;)

Hello everyone !

Today we are going to talk about Just Desserts!

To your desserts, from 2 to 5 players for 25 minutes, to place perfect orders!


It's Dessert Night!

The guests are here, and they are hungry!

Serve them their favorite sweets in this delicious dessert distribution game.

Become the best server of the evening by ensuring that all guests get their perfect desserts!

The guests are here, and they're hungry, so try to be the best waiter in this cafe by making sure all the guests get their perfect desserts!

In this card game, each player starts with a hand of three dessert cards while three guest cards are placed in the center of the table; each dessert card shows 1-3 tastes it satisfies, such as chocolate, fruit or pastry, while guest cards show what they crave as well as what they refuse to eat.

You take turns drawing a dessert card, adding a guest card to the table from the draw pile, then performing one of three actions:

- Serve (and claim) one or two guests by discarding one or more dessert cards to give them what they want (while avoiding what they don't want); if you give a guest their favorite item, you receive a tip with an additional dessert menu.


- Draw another dessert card.


- Lay down as many dessert cards as you want, then draw as many cards from the deck.

At the end of your turn, discard guests from the table so that only one guest from each "suit" is still waiting to be served - but the guest heading for the door (top of the discard pile) can still be claimed by any server.

If at any time you have served three guests of the same costume or five guests of different costumes, then you have won!

Just desserts includes game variations that let you steal guests from another server by sending more candy, force other servers to each drop a guest, and throw a surprise party to claim a guest out of turn.

Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone ! 


From roller skating to mass (Venezuela)


 While Australians are surfing, Venezuelans are rollerblading. 


This unusual Christmas tradition wants the entire capital of Caracas to go to Christmas mass on rollerblades on Christmas Day.


 In fact, vehicles are banned from many areas of the city before 8 a.m. 


As if this mode of transportation wasn't weird enough, the night before, kids tie one end of a string to their big toe and hang the other end from their bedroom window, so the roller skaters in passage can amicably pull the string on their way to mass the next morning.

Hello everyone !

Welcome to a new opus of “Offs du JJV”!

June 2021: 3 years of the store!

In June 2021, we were starting to see things a little clearer after the crisis.

We could manage to pick up things where they had slowed down a bit in 2020.

I held the helm of the boat as best I could among the swells of this period and never let go!

Because this project of bringing you a bit of the playful world to Vaison and its surroundings, I still believed in it and always despite this troubled period...

It hasn't always been easy and I know that sisters and colleagues have unfortunately remained on the floor, and I'm sorry for them.

To have held on and still be there thanks to and with you is the best thing I can hope for the store.

I was very proud to have been nominated in 4 categories for the Women's Success Trophy on March 8, 2021!

Nominated in the benevolence, digital, originality and agility categories; I won the latter for my adaptation and my flexibility during the crisis.

I received special congratulations from the jury for being nominated in so many categories.

What I retain from this trophy is my adaptability to offer you my vision of the playful world.

I would always make sure to share the playful world with you at my modest independent boutique scale.

Because this playful world that we share together is always full of surprises!

Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !

Today we are going to talk about Chimera!

Create your chimeras, from 2 to 5 players for 30 minutes to 45 minutes, and score the most points!

In Chimera, each player embodies a magician at the court of a King who has decided to entrust his Kingdom to the best Court Magician.

Each magician now has the task of convincing the king that he is the best magician in the court.

To do this, they organize a big magic tournament with various competitions.

For each competition, players must craft a fabulous creature made up of a mix of three real animals.

These chimeras then compete in various trials to determine the best magician.

Three-ingredient creatures are created simultaneously by all players drawing from the three decks of creatures in front of them, placing the cards face down on one of the four contest areas in front of them.

Once players have chosen their three ingredient creatures for each of the four contests, they can trade ingredient creature pieces between their four different contest tiles.

Contests can include Mud Wrestling, Funniest Creature, First Blood Battle, Potato Sack Race, and Cutest Creature.

 Only four are chosen from the available contest play, and only the first and second place players in each contest receive points.

The first player to complete their selections for all four contests can declare they are done, putting a 30 second time limit for all other players to complete their choices.

Voting takes place between players to see who has the best creature featured in each contest.

Three rounds are played with the aforementioned stages, with creature and contest cards being reshuffled and redrawn.

Each round lasts approximately 10-15 minutes, for a total of 30-45 minutes per game.

1- Look for the natures of animals most suitable for competitions.

2- Merge your animals to create your chimeras.

3- Optimize your creations to win as many competitions as possible.

Christmas at the balcony, Easter in the grass ?

 

In the southern hemisphere, it's sunshine at will, since the Christmas holidays take place in summer.

 

Aussie temperatures can easily hit the 30s at Christmas, which is a natural reason for many Australians to head to the beach.

 

Families and friends bathe, picnic and play volleyball.

 

Often, surfer Santa Clauses make an appearance.

 

Some Sydney beaches, in particular, are known to be favorite spots for foreign travelers and backpackers.
