Hello everyone !

Welcome to a new opus of the JJV Offs!

Unforgettable moments around board games!

I have the chance to work in a fun and attractive field all year round.

The hardest times are when I sacrifice myself to discover new games so that I can introduce you to them and share them with you afterwards.

Being forced to play to discover new games while having fun with friends and colleagues, it does not look like it but it is exhausting. ;)

Friends, colleagues of the moment during special events, I evolve in an environment where people are all a little crazy like me (you have to to play all these magnificent games ^^).

From one-off moments to moments that recur every year with fad teams, I am overwhelmed.

Great fun teams who are committed to spreading the fun world of board games everywhere we go.

Be careful, toy librarians and gamers of all kinds are on their way to torture you and make you discover fun nuggets throughout the year in France and elsewhere;)

Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !

Our Play with thought of the day comes from Marcel Pagnol:

“If you can no longer cheat with your friends, there is no longer any point in playing cards.”

Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone ! Today we are going to talk about Dragomino!

Dragomino is an exploratory game of dominoes lasting about 15 minutes for 2 to 4 players.

The big moment has arrived. You have been named "dragon trainer", and you have the chance to meet them on a mysterious island.

But you are not the only trainer sent to these lands. Who among you will discover the most baby dragons?

Dragomino features gameplay similar to Kingdomino, but with gameplay geared towards younger players.  

At the start of a turn, you reveal four domino tiles, with each domino featuring two types of landscapes.

Starting with whoever has the mama dragon figurine, players draw a tile and add it to their landscape.

 If the newly placed tile matches the landscape of one or more adjacent tiles, then you draw an egg tile for that type of landscape and place it face up where those tiles meet.

Some eggs feature a baby dragon, which is worth 1 point; others feature an empty shell, which allows you to take the mama dragon, giving you first choice on the next turn.

After seven rounds, the game ends and the player holding the mother dragon scores 1 extra point.

Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !

In 2021, due to Covid-19, the Cannes International Games Festival did not take place physically, but digitally via social networks.

It was possible to follow the ceremony live on the networks and the awarding of the prizes live from his living room.

The golden ace was won by Micro, macro, the expert golden ace by The Crew and the child golden ace by Dragomino.

The selection of the golden ace was composed of Top Ten, Ghost adventure, Carro combo and of course Micro Macro.

The children's selection was made up of House of Mice, Kraken Attack, Detective Charlie and of course Dragomino.

The expert selection was made up of Paleo, Tainted Grail, The King's Dilemma and of course The Crew.

It's not always easy to choose from good games, so hats off to the jury.

Good day and good game ;)
