Hello everyone!
Combination Games
Mérelles and Pessos. Mérelles is also called Triodium, a game of 3 roads. From the game board, players take three stones and decide by drawing lots who will start. The goal is to place their stones to win by completing a line.
You must place your stones and then move another to an unoccupied square. With the 24 stations, players each take 9 stones, which they place and move to an empty space to try to form a line. You must move 3 pieces onto the same straight line.
When they have 3 of their own pieces in a line, they take a piece of their choice from their opponent's and remove it from the game. When they have only 4 pieces left, they can then cross any unoccupied intermediate stations on the same straight line at will. The player with only 2 pieces left immediately loses the game. The city game. You have to capture the enemy pieces like in checkers, but with two pieces surrounding them. Have a nice day and good game ;)

Hello everyone!
Welcome to a new opus of "JJV Offs"!
"Only a great player knows how weakly they play."
I'm a very playful person, and I could have chosen to play on some people's nerves the way they try to play on mine in vain...
When I tell you that I play weakly, it's because I don't want to retaliate against people who disrespect me and harass me solely because I opened a store they don't seem to like...
That's their most legitimate right, but it's also my right not to remain silent in the face of such actions, however childish they may be. While some people in Vaison find this normal, I don't.
I don't intend to belittle myself or diminish my daily efforts for the store so that people who aren't even capable of loving themselves and each other can be happy. Will they ever truly be happy anyway? The more time passes here, the more I tell myself that there's very little chance of that happening for them...
So I'm going to make more friends, but when I keep quiet, people still come looking for trouble, even though I basically ignore them... So let's talk clearly and directly.
I didn't choose to play your game of gossip, slander, bad faith, and daily belittling of others, not to mention insults... Because believe me, that would be lowering myself to their level of human distress, and I wouldn't sink that low...
What makes me laugh the most is that these same people who complain about their loved ones being harassed harass other people with complete impunity...
I know how to keep a low profile when necessary. Like, for example, some people hope I'll get angry so I can make myself look crazy in front of everyone... Do you love me that much to be stuck in the store every time you walk past?
But I want to reassure my fan club, who've been following me for a little over seven years now and who give me a hard time every day. Well, yes, because it's funny... ha ha ha... (yes, yes, they really do laugh like that ^^). No, what you confided in me about your ex or your difficult life situation, I'm not as immoral as you are, and I wouldn't tell everyone in Vaison.
So you can continue to give me your love every day and breathe easy; I won't tell anyone what they told me about you or what you confided in me, my little love-hater. Because:
1/ I'm not you, I have values that mean that when someone confides in me, I don't tell anyone. It's called trust, you should try it sometime ;)
2/ It's simply not in my nature to put people down. I love myself, so I don't need to put others down to draw attention to myself. I invite you to do the same; you'll see it's peaceful. ;)
In short, I chose to play it small and simply impose boundaries on people who don't have any regarding their respect for me. And I will continue to be at least minimally respectful even to people who aren't respectful towards me. Because that's simply who I am.
Have a good day and good game ;)
Hello everyone!
Our Play with thought of the day comes from Xavier Tartacover.

Hello everyone!
Today we're going to talk about jacks!
Pick up your knucklebones, for 1 player or more, ages 7 and up, for 20 to 40 minutes, to get the best throw!
The Greeks also used them to question the gods; knucklebones were made of ivory, agate, and other precious materials.
They are now also available in plastic.
The Greeks and Romans used the four knucklebones like dice, trying to make certain combinations.
The modern game is quite different. It consists of five knucklebones, four of which are painted the same color (usually red) and the fifth is black, which is called the "father."
The knucklebones are on the ground; the player picks up the father and throws it into the air. Before catching it in their hand, they must pick up one of the knucklebones lying on the ground. If they succeed, they continue picking up the knucklebones one by one in the same way. Each picked-up knucklebone is set aside.
If the player misses, the game passes to the next player.
If they succeed, the player starts again, but picking up two knucklebones at a time.
A game of flat knucklebones.
They are said to be the ancestors of the dice. They date back to the mists of time and are known to all peoples.
They were either games of skill or a game of chance and divination. For the Greeks, they were reserved for women, but young Greeks also played them.
This game was called astragalism.
"Astragalus" refers to the convoluted shape of these small bones that come from the hind leg of an animal, sheep or other, i.e., a hoofed animal.
For the game of chance, four knucklebones are used; Each of the four sides of the knucklebones has a number on it. They are tossed in the air and the points are counted: it's the ancestor of dice games.
In this game, the "father" knucklebone becomes... "the mother"!
Basic rules of jacks
Materials: 5 knucklebones (4 gray and 1 red: the mother)
Essential rules:
You must not drop the mother. You are allowed to bring the knucklebones closer together. One by one: you must throw the mother into the air and quickly grab a gray knucklebone. Catch the mother before she falls. Two by two: as above, but grab the knucklebones 2 by 23 and 1: as above except you must grab 3, then 14: still the same, but you must grab all 4 knucklebones at once.
The Skull and Crossbones
Place all the knucklebones between your fingers and the mother on the back of your hand. Catch her in the palm of your hand. Then bring the gray knucklebones back with the mother. If a knucklebone falls, you lose.
The Hollow and the Hump
First, choose and say "hollow or hump." Throw the knucklebones into the air, but keep the mother in your hand. If you chose "hollow" and some of the knuckles have landed on the hump side, you must turn them over, throwing the mother in the air each time (remembering to catch it).
The opposite is true if you chose "hump." When all the knuckles are on the chosen side: you win!
The Wall
Wall 1:
Place your hand on the slice.
Throw the mother in the air, pick up one of the four knuckles.
Place them behind the wall, remembering to catch the mother right afterward.
Walls 2, 3, 4:
You must pass 2, 3, 4 knuckles at a time behind the wall without letting the mother fall.
The Sausage
Sausage 4: Place the knuckles with a hand-width gap between them. Pretend your hand is a knife.
Cut the four slices in succession, throwing the mother in the air for each slice. Finally, throw the mother and collect all the knuckles.
Sausage 3: Do the same as sausage 4, but stick 3 knuckles on one side and one on the other. Same rules as before (see photo).
Sausage 2: Place the knuckles as shown in the photo. Cut to the left, middle, and right (throw the mother each time and catch it). Throw the mother again, collect the knuckles, and remember the mother falling back down…
Sausage 1: Place the 4 gray knuckles side by side. Pretend your hand is a knife. Throw the mother in the air, cut left then right, pick up the gray knuckles, and catch the mother.
The Big Wall
Get on the ground as shown in the photo, with your leg forming a wall.
Throw the four knuckles on the ground while holding the mother (in red) between your thumb and forefinger. Throw the father in the air, then take one of the four white knuckles and pass it to the other side of the wall while the mother is in the air, then catch her.
Do the same with the other three white knuckles, trying to group them together.
Remove your leg, throw the mother, and pick up the four white knuckles in one go, then catch the mother (red).
The Well
Take the mother and place her between your thumb and forefinger, forming a well. Take a knucklebone and place it on the back of your hand. Flip it so that it falls back into the well. Do the same with the other three knucklebones.
Finish with a sweep.
The Eiffel Tower
With five knucklebones.
Take four knucklebones in your hand and hold the mother (in red) between your thumb and forefinger in the same hand. I throw the mother in the air and place the other four knuckles on the ground, then I catch the mother. Then I throw the mother in the air and catch the other four knuckles.
If they are far apart, you can bring them together twice.
If the mother touches the ground or if you don't catch all four knuckles in the meantime, you lose, and it's the next player's turn.
The Spider
Place the four knuckles between each finger.
Shape your hand like a spider.
Take the mother in your other hand and throw it in the air.
Slide a knuckle inside the spider and catch the mother. Then throw the mother again immediately. Slide another knuckle, and so on. Repeat by sliding 2, 3, then 4 knuckles.
Bring them together!
Place the knucklebones spaced apart on the table, holding the mother in your hand. (2 to 4 knucklebones)
Throw the mother and bring the knucklebones together at a single point.
When the knucklebones are close together, catch the mother before it falls to the ground.
Have a good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone!
Twelve Lines Game
Twelve Lines Game (backgammon). Roll the dice, determine the placement, and place the pieces. (Persian game). Cylindrical piece in the shape of dogs' and lions' heads. The flat, round pieces are placed on a grid with scores based on placement.
The Romans used honeycomb-shaped boards. The boards are the ancient game mats. We roll the dice and then try to place the checkers to take positions and capture the enemy pieces. By rolling the dice, we surround our opponent's pieces by giving us placement options.
Each player has 15 pieces, each of a color. The Greeks used 3 dice and the Romans only 2. The checkers had to travel the 24 squares of the game mat and exit. We tried to make successive paths to score as many points as possible by blocking our opponent. The holes were worth a certain number of points. Square 1 was the white square and square 24 was the black square. You had to follow a path called a route, one from 1 to 12, the other from 13 to 24. The one going down was the one for the white pieces and the one going up was the one for the black pieces. (Ancestor of backgammon).

Hello everyone !
“Play heart is simple. You need to have one, that’s all”
We’re not always dealt good cards, but what we decide to do with them and how, determines who we are. A traumatic or painful past doesn’t systematically is a repeated pattern we follow.
A painful or traumatic past doesn’t justify to hurt other people… It’s not easy to face our own wounds and try to heal them, but it’s somehow needed if we don’t want to repeat the same pattern again and again.
If we don’t have enough love in one’s heart to give ourself, how can we have love to offer to others ?
I haven't always had the happiest moments in my life, but it never even occurs to me to hurt people to get rid of the pain that was done to me... I was deeply wounded by people who were supposed to raise me and love me unconditionally and who destroyed me, so I don't want other people to suffer because I know what it feels like to be hurt.
So when I say I wouldn't hurt the bullies in Vaison, I really mean it, but I also wouldn't remain silent in the face of adults who behave like the child and teenage bullies they themselves denounce...
I would always play only on the side of my heart, because of all the cards I hold, I will never run out. The way people treat us is only a reflection of who they are, and the way we react is a reflection of who we are. Just because some people find their behavior normal because it's normalized by others doesn't mean it really is. A lie doesn't become the truth just because everyone says it...
Everything is paid for on a daily basis; just look at the everyday lives of these kinds of people who want to hurt others and then don't understand why only bad things happen to them afterwards.
It's like setting up giant dominoes in a circle where you are yourself, giving the first domino the momentum and hoping that the last domino in the circle doesn't hit you... Illusory :)
But these people who harass and belittle us ultimately make us stronger by setting a bad example. ^^ They want to belittle us, but end up triggering the emotional distance they feared so much! Because losing the attention we give them makes them insignificant and invisible. From now on my harassers, you are wandering ghosts and even if you try to haunt me, you will see that it will be annoying for you because I will let you rest in peace as I have already started to do...^^ RIP the jealous, the haters, the harassers and stay connected because the new season of my life is coming just for you ;)
To the people who are being bullied, no matter your age, know that the problem does not come from you but from these people whose only solution to make others interested in them is to put you down. You have this energy, this kindness, these things that you possess or within you that they will never be able to have because they do not have the courage and the strength like you to go and get them... If they hate you, it is because you are on the right path, otherwise they would recruit you to hurt others with them to get attention and exist in their own way...
I see you, succeeding in your projects, your life, living your passions and if like me no one has it or tells you, "I am proud of you". Don't give up, once we are on the side of detachment and indifference in the face of this type of people, we continue despite the attacks to live serenely, because we are at peace with ourselves. Have a heart, play it, but not with just anyone, only with people who appreciate what you do for them and love you as you are... No negotiation of your values, people with values like you have to earn it so they don't take advantage of you... ;)
Have a good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone!
Today we are going to talk about Tangram!
Arrange your pieces, from 1 player and from 7 years old for 20 to 40 minutes, to recompose different shapes!
In tangram, we will have a square composed of seven shapes that will allow us to recompose other larger shapes. We can print models to reconstruct with our shapes and play by timing ourselves for even more challenges.
Let's now move on to its possible origins.
No one knows exactly the origin of this game of patience and imagination. The oldest traces of this puzzle come from China, hence its name Chinese puzzle. It is more commonly known there under the name of "board of wisdom" or "board with seven tricks".
The first Western writings about it apparently date from the beginning of the 19th century. It then became very popular. So much so that some of its figures were used as models for the creation of decorations for dishes, lacquered boxes and tables.
The origin of the word "Tangram" is no more well known than that of the game. Some claim that it comes from the name of the young girls of the ship "Tanka" from Canton who taught this game to foreign sailors. Others claim that this word comes from England, where "trangram" was the old word used for "trinket" which meant toy or patience game and which today designates a trinket.
Children will have fun listening to the famous legend which tells that 1000 years ago, in China, a man named "Tan" dropped a tile which broke into 7 perfectly geometric pieces (a parallelogram, a square and five triangles).
And, while he was trying to recompose it, he discovered that a multitude of combinations using the 7 pieces were possible. More than 3600 figures are indeed possible.
Have a good day and good game ;)

Dice Games
The game of tesserae (tesserarum ludus). A game of dice to roll, place, and move to create combos. A game of dice made of bone, ivory, and wood. The dice were not cubic but oblong. Shaped like pyramids. The Roman dice were as we know them today, facing each other to make 7 on both sides. To play dice, people used a cone. They were shaken and then thrown. Before, the ancients played games with 3 dice, then 2.
Backgammon. For the Greeks, playing dice is called tric-trac. When playing tric-trac, the die on our side is for us and the one on the other side is for our opponent.
The game of the best shot. (Greece, Rome). It was played with dice or knucklebones. The best roll was the triple 6. We roll the dice to try to get it. If a 6 comes up on its own (ace), we put down a sum of money each time, and as soon as a player gets the best roll with all three 6s, they win the full amount.
In the election game, we choose three numbers that we think will come up on the dice. If we don't get them, we pay a fine (a sum of money); if they come up, we win a portion of the winnings.
Have a good day and enjoy the game ;)

Hello everyone!
Welcome to a new opus of the "Offs du JJV"!
"Personality is found in the style of play."
With each new game time, I am happy to discover new players and to be able to discover them through the games. Each one has his own way of playing and that is what makes the moments around the games interesting and unique.
For example, there will be players who will follow the rule to the letter and others who will also be able to try to arrange it so that it helps them win... :) Yes, yes, I see you doing it when you try to arrange the rules. ;)
And there are some rogues who try to read between the lines to find rules that don't exist or that they distort to change the rules of the game when it suits them...^^ And this happens as much with little ones as with big kids... :)
I admit that I sometimes take a quick look at your cards to help you play later, especially when you haven't known the games for a long time. But it's only to give you a little help and I don't do it anymore after you know how to play. ;)
I've let you win sometimes when you weren't comfortable with a game, but as soon as you know it then it's time for me to play the game and introduce you to more complex strategies. Because I don't want to put you off games and I want you to have fun, so yes sometimes in the beginning I let you win... ;)
In life, I like to see people who deserve it succeed. For the others, I am not calculating and I only wish you what you deserve... You can't hurt people and hope not to be hurt yourself one day...
In life as in games, I am fair play but in life, I do not appreciate being played with. I would not play the game of meanness and perfidy. You can sneer your insults or your derogatory remarks on a daily basis as if it were the most normal thing in the world...
I know my worth and I would not play the game in Vaison of certain people who think they are superior by putting other people down. I am even sorry for you that you only have that to give you substance...
That is my meanness, not to calculate you, you do not deserve it and to continue living my life peacefully. Haven't you noticed over all these years that the store hasn't sunk and that you allow me to strengthen myself with your meanness on a daily basis?
Thank you for each of your actions, which show that harassment doesn't stop at schools and that adults who want to be so-called examples aren't...
And then it's easy to attack someone who doesn't answer you and that your environment validates your bad actions... And then you wonder why bad things happen to you in your life. Look no further... Everything has to be paid for, bad as well as good!
Have a good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone!
Today we are going to talk about Azul Sintra!
Place your stained glass windows, 2 to 4 players from 8 years old for 30 to 45 minutes, to become the best glass craftsman!
In Azul Sintra, we will find the basic mechanics of choosing tiles as in Azul but with stained glass windows.
We will have the choice between taking all the stained glass windows of the same color from one of the displays and putting the rest in the center of the table. We can also take all the stained glass windows of the same color from the center of the table.
We will place the stained glass windows in columns instead of placing them in a line. The colors of the columns are imposed and can be composed of one or more different colors.
These columns will be managed by an upholsterer who will fill them from left to right. He will only be able to fill one column of stained glass at a time. If he has taken too many, the surplus will be thrown away and will cost VP.
To fill the rightmost column, he will be able to move his upholsterer but it will cost him an action. He will therefore not be able to take stained glass and it will be the same if he wants to move his upholsterer again to the leftmost columns.
When a column is filled, we will score the points of this one plus those of the already filled columns located to the right of the one just finished.
The stained glass windows bring different points depending on the colors and the turns that allow you to win bonuses, as well as if you make adjacent columns.
The player who has the most points at the end of the game wins.
Have a good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone!
Games of chance
Game of even or odd. We take a certain number of knucklebones in our hand and hand them to another player and ask them "even or odd". If they guess, they win the knucklebones that are in the hand of the one who asked them the question. If they don't guess, they must give as many knucklebones as the one who asked them the question and must give them to them.
The game of heads or tails. It was played as we still play it today. The Greeks used day and night for the white or black side. The Romans said head or ship.
The game of mourre. The two players stand face to face and then extend their right hand, announcing a number and assuming the sum announced by the two players. You must then try to estimate the number of fingers that the opponent will raise to try to find the sum of all the fingers of the two players. The winner is the one who has won 5 shots, that is to say who has found the right number 5 times. The points won are counted with the left hand. It was also used to determine who will start playing.
The game of the wound belt. Puzzle to take apart and put back together to win. The Greeks used it to consult fate. It is a double belt that was wound and it was necessary to succeed in undoing them. It represents the work of each day that the people must accomplish.
The game of the bronze coin. We take a bronze coin that we spin on its edge then we try to stop it with our finger in a single attempt and before it falls back on the table or on the ground. We had to succeed in stopping it on its edge.

Hello everyone!
Welcome to a new opus of the "Offs du JJV"!
"My motivation comes from playing the game I love."
I am very happy to be able to offer you every day the most unusual things in the gaming world. The classics and games that everyone plays are good too, but the unusual ones always bring a little special touch!
Having the opportunity to have you play and play with you games that bring us closer enchants me every day. I like to make you discover games that are as varied as you are.
Making one of your passions a job allows me to advise you as best I can and to be able to enjoy unique and friendly moments with you.
It is immediately more motivating in the face of life's hazards to work in a field that we like. It gives additional motivation than just working at your own pace and as you want.
I really enjoyed my years as an employee and if I had to go back, I think I would get used to it pretty quickly because one of my qualities is that I am very adaptable. I also like being self-employed to organize my week as I wish as long as the goals I set for myself are achieved.
But it is true that working at my own pace and at my own convenience is a luxury that I gave myself when I opened the store. I can organize my tasks according to my desires and my activities as well.
It is a freedom that is not necessarily allowed when you work for an employer. However, being an employee brings a little more security if you know how to give yourself the means to stay in line with your job description.
I like to play, I am paid to sell you things to play and to play with you! What more could you ask for… ;)

Have a good day and good game ;)
Hello everyone!
Today we're going to talk about Checkers!
Move your pieces, 2 players from 6 years old for 10 to 20 minutes, to capture all your opponent's pieces!
The two players are face-to-face, the checkerboard between them. For each player, the square on the right on the first line of the checkerboard is light-colored.
Draw lots to find out which player has the light-colored pieces. He starts the game. Each player places all his pieces on the dark-colored squares, on the first four lines.
Each player in turn makes either a move or a capture. When he can make a capture, he is obliged to do so and does not make a move.
The player moves one of his pawns one square, diagonally, towards the other player. The arrival square must be empty.
If the pawn reaches the last line, it turns into a "queen". A second pawn of the same color is placed on top of it.
Instead of moving one of his pawns, the player can move one of his queens. He moves it as many squares as he wants, diagonally, in the direction of his choice. The arrival square must be empty and no piece must be in the path of the queen.
Pawns and queens only move on dark-colored squares. If a player touches one of his pieces, he must play this piece, if possible. As long as he does not drop it, he can change his move.
A pawn can take a piece from the other player by jumping over it, provided that it arrives in an empty square, next to the jumped pawn. The jump can be made in any direction. The jumped piece is removed from the board.
The queen captures like the pawn but has the advantage of being able to cross several empty squares.
It can stop on the square of its choice if it has several empty arrival squares. If several jumps in a row are possible, the player must make as many as possible. Each jump can be made in a different direction.
For example, three pawns must be taken in preference to two pawns or two queens. In the event of a numerical tie, it can be chosen.
A piece can only be jumped once. It is forbidden to remove the pieces as the jumps progress; they must all be removed after the last jump.
If a pawn reaches the end of its capture on a square on the last line, it becomes a queen. If it only passes, it remains a pawn.
A player can force the other player to replay his turn if the latter forgot to capture. He can also let it happen, without penalty.
A player has lost the game when he has no more pieces left on the board or if he can no longer move any pieces.
A player can also abandon the game if he feels he has no chance of winning, or even of equalizing.
A draw is when a player proposes it and the other player accepts it, when it is no longer possible to make a capture, or when the same position of the pieces occurs for the third time.
Have a good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone!
Games of agility or strategy games
The game of scattering where we throw our nuts at once trying to scatter them in two or three shots. If we get four nuts distributed we win the game. We had to try to place our nuts and scatter those of our opponents. After placing a pile of 4 nuts another player tries to get them out of the playing area or scatter them.
The inclined plane or game of the tap where we tilt a board from which we make a nut go down which must touch another one at the bottom. We must then try to move the board to make our nut land on another nut which earned points.
The game of puck where we put a puck (a shell) on the ground or on a table and we had to succeed in turning the shell in the other direction with another shell. We had to try to be agile enough to hit the edge of the shell to succeed in turning it over.
Have a good day and have a good game ;)
