Hello everyone !

Welcome to a new opus of “JJV Offs”!

“To take revenge for an offense is to put oneself on the level of one’s enemy; to forgive him is to put oneself above him. »

Since the time that I have suffered the uncomfortable behavior of certain individuals out of a spirit of “competition”, I believe that my patience and my resilience no longer need to be proven…

When you send your friends to tell you that “what you are selling is crap…. ". Whether they come to the front of the store or allow themselves to insult me ​​in the street of “la c…….” board games”, we don’t really have any moral lessons to give to our “competitor” as you like to call me…

Almost 6 and a half years without flinching in the face of all this, because as I told you in person when you came to ask me in my own store “Could we be united?” ".

I told you that I was not interested in showing solidarity with people who denigrate my store and my values...but that I would not return the favor, because that's simply not me...

However, I forgave you a while ago, because I decided to focus my attention and energy on something more useful and constructive, my store!

I'm talking about this so that you understand once and for all that I will NEVER respond to your baseness, whatever the level...

I hope for you at some point that you will be able to refocus on yourself to appreciate what life has to offer you.

I wish you good sales and lots of good things in your professional and personal lives, but without me...

Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !

Today we’re going to talk about Identiquest!

In Identiquest, who will steal the most precious stones without being unmasked from 3 to 6 players for 15 minutes from 8 years old!

In Identiquest, we are precious stone thieves who must seize them, be unmasked or escape.

We shuffle the precious stone cards and place the draw pile face down in the center of the table, then we spread 5 cards from the face up pile in the center.

We then place the 7 different suspect cards in front of each player with the question mark faces up.

Each player then receives an “identity” card which they look at discreetly and place face down, without showing it to the other players.

The objective of each player will then be to steal the precious stones of the same color as their “identity” card.

Each turn, players have the right to one of two actions, steal gems or accuse a player.

To steal stones, the player takes 2 of the 5 precious stone cards placed in the center of the table and places them in front of him, this will be his loot (he places them on top of those already stolen if he has any).

We then replace the 2 stolen cards with 2 new cards from the pile in the center of the table.

To accuse a player, the player whose turn it is must report him to the police by announcing the color of the “identity” card he thinks the player has.

You must have at least 2 precious stone cards in your loot to be able to accuse another player.

If the accusation does not match the color of the offending player, the question mark card placed in front of the player will be turned over to show a red cross which indicates that the player's "identity" card is not of that color.

The player who accused him will have to give him 2 precious stone cards from his own loot.

If the accusation was justified, the accused player turns his “identity” card face up and all the other players turn their question cards of the color concerned in front of them towards the red cross.

A player is unmasked as soon as he is accused and it is the right color, he must then give 4 precious stone cards to his accuser (or the rest if he has less than 4).

A player escapes as soon as the last question mark card is turned over, he can no longer be accused.

As soon as the player has performed one of these two actions, another player takes their turn and chooses from these two choices.

The game ends when either the precious stone cards are exhausted or all players are unmasked or escaped.

Each player counts the number of precious stones in the color of their “identity” card to know the number of points they have earned.

The player with the most points wins the game.

Lagos Beaches

Lagos, "The Lakes", is a Portuguese city located in the south of the Algarve, at the mouth of the Bensafrim.

Lagos is an old seaport with a history dating back over 2000 years. Its name Lagos derives from the Gallic Lacobriga.

Lagos was first a trading post where the Carthaginians recruited Gallic mercenaries to fight the Romans during the Wars.

It was then colonized by the Romans, and depended on the Roman province of Lusitania.

There are still some Gallo-Roman remains in and around Lagos itself.

It was probably at Lacobriga, near Mount Molião, that the rebel general Sertorius, with the support of Lusitanian auxiliaries, defeated the army of Q. Caecilius Metellus Pius sent to arrest him.

Lacobriga was already a considerable port at that time. In the 6th century, the city was successively governed by the Visigoths from the Kingdom of Toledo then by the Byzantines.

Hello everyone !

Welcome to a new opus of “JJV Offs”!

“Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet. »

If there is one quality of mine that has always been useful to me in life and especially in the store, it is patience...

I wanted at all costs to develop moments around board games with you and not just sell them to you.

The events at the store took off quite quickly and were going pretty well from the start.

I had to be more patient with the outdoor activities which started timidly.

Patience can seem bitter when you are not immediately recognized for the experience you can offer.

But as they say “Rome was not built in a day”, every project is built, needs to mature and develop in order to evolve perpetually.

We put our stones in place one after the other and then we adjust them if they are not ready to build something solid.

And then over time, we reap the sweet fruits of what we sowed and we know why it was worth the wait.

Now, since covid, my outdoor activities are very calm and my outdoor activities are very dynamic.

This is why I chose to introduce games with “Discover Games” to introduce beginners to board games and why not help find new players. ;)

Everyone receives their blessings, there is no point in being jealous or eyeing the good things that other people gain...

What takes time to build often lasts longer than what is hastily built.

Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !

Today we are going to talk about Noli!

In Noli, let's build the most powerful seaport with 4 players for 45 minutes to be the best patron!

In Noli, we control a thriving medieval maritime city under the benevolent patronage of the powerful Republic of Genoa.

This sun-drenched fishing community has a rich history of independence, trade and competition.

Every year, in September, in order to determine the fishing rights for the following season, the gozzi (typical fishing boats of Liguria) from the four districts of Burgu, Ciassa, Màina and Portellu organize a regatta along a route of 1,600 meters, in fractions of 400 meters between buoys.

Not content with this form of competition alone, merchant families from each neighborhood compete with each other to build tall red brick towers to display their wealth.

Their successful buildings give the town of Noli its distinctive appearance, although no merchant tower can hope to match the proud castle atop Monte Ursino, whose constant vigilance and defensive walls protect Noli from Saracen raids and assaults jealous neighboring towns!

Each game follows a series of rounds, during which players will secretly bid on four actions using coins. The player who makes the highest bid for each action wins a bonus or moves closer to victory by building a floor of their tower.

Between each auction session, players frantically roll dice in real time to simulate the famous Regata-dei-Reoni. The winner of the race gets to fish in the best places, drawing from the best deck of fish cards, while the other players must draw from worse decks containing fewer fish. These cards can also feature events such as "The Saracens Attack!" and “Storm!” which disrupt the game and push players back.

If a player manages to build 6 tower floors, or have the most tower floors at the end of the game, they win!

Hello everyone !
The Bardenas Reales
The Bardenas Reales are a semi-desert area with an area of 39,200 ha (392 km²) located in Spain, in the southeast of Navarre, between Tudela and Carcastillo.

More precisely, it brings together the Bardena Blanca, desert, the Bardena Negra, covered with a xerophilic forest and El Plano, steppe and agricultural.
This nature reserve has particular vegetation which has earned it the status of a world biosphere reserve by UNESCO.
Erosion has also shaped impressive rock formations, of which the Castil de Tierra or the Rallon and Piskerra massifs, made up of badlands, are the most emblematic manifestations.
This particular landscape has made it a filming location for several films and audiovisual series, including scenes from Game of Thrones.

Hello everyone !

Welcome to a new opus of “JJV Offs”!

Little miracles every day!

I am one of those people who think that we can enjoy all the little things in everyday life.

In the world of board games, I would say that each moment that I share with you around a game, a discussion is unique.

All these good little moments are for me my little daily miracles, because I never get tired of sharing all these moments with you...

So finding the game that makes you laugh together and have a good time is great!

Allowing you to offer your loved ones players gems that they would not necessarily have discovered elsewhere is also one of my objectives.

And then share with you play times that are always friendly and bring us closer together, these are moments out of time...

I always look forward to coming and joining you at the various events, whether my events or the co-hosted events.

Because coming to your contact to make you play and have a good time, these are little playful miracles…

I love being the one who makes you play solo as much as sharing these moments of animation with colleagues from the gaming world!

 Because each animation, or each game or service sold, these are always instructive moments of discussion that help me progress on a daily basis.

I like to progress so that I can share even more unique moments with you, these are my little everyday miracles!

Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone!

Today we're going to talk about Master Islands!

Be the first to win the maximum number of islands to become the Master Islands, 2 to 4 players for 20 minutes from 8 years old!

In Master Islands, we are corsairs who must seize as many islands as possible to become the master of the islands!

We shuffle the island cards then distribute 3 to each player and place the rest face down in a draw pile in the center of the table.

We place a first card from the draw pile face up on the table and each player chooses a color and places their two galleons on the island card face up.

A game turn is done in 3 phases. We start with the discovery phase.

We can place an island card so that it is adjacent to a card where we already have a galleon of our color (but not diagonally).

You can then move one of your galleons from a single card adjacent to the card where it is located vertically or horizontally.

If the island card placed by the player is of the same color as one of the cards where he already has a galleon, the player can put down another island card.

If this is not the case, it switches to the conquest face.

If the player has made a vertical, horizontal or diagonal alignment of cards whose sum is equal to 10, he can recover them if they do not include any galleon tokens, regardless of whether they follow each other or not.

If he cannot recover an alignment, the player moves to the resupply phase.

The player draws the number of cards he needs to fill his hand with 3 cards.

The game ends when there are no more cards in the draw pile or on the table. We then count the points already acquired by each player's 10-point island alignments.

The player with the most points at the end of the game wins.

If there is a tie, the player whose island sum is higher between the two tied players wins.

Play Master Islands in cooperative mode with a victory from 12 islands recovered or in more intense competitive mode with privateer mode where one player plays against all the others.

Good day and good game ;)
