Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of the JJV Offs!
The game, a timeless intergenerational tool.
When I was an animator for the town halls of Anjou, where I am from, I had the opportunity to lead a lot of intergenerational play time.
I am happy to be able to offer such moments again thanks to the store in Vaucluse.
Creating additional complicity between parents/grandparents and children is a reward worthy of the time spent on it.
The board game allows you to create unforgettable moments in the right atmosphere around a table.
Discovering a little more while playing is a moment that you keep with you.
Sharing a game as a family is also a way to get to know each other a little better.
Who is the most strategist? Who is the fastest ? Who is playing with whom?
And many more questions and discoveries that only games allow...
So to your games and good games ;)

Hello everyone !
Today we are going to talk about Bohnanza!
In the game, you plant and then harvest bean cards in order to earn coins.
Each player starts with a hand of random bean cards, and each card has a number corresponding to the number of that type of bean in the game.
Unlike most other card games, you can't rearrange the order of cards in hand, so you must use them in the order you picked them up from the game - unless you can swap them with other players, which is the case.
During a turn, you must plant the first card or cards from your hand in the "fields" in front of you.
Each field can only contain one type of bean, so if you need to plant a type of bean that is not in one of your fields, you must harvest a field to make room for the new arrival.
This is generally not good!
Then you reveal two cards from the deck, and you can then trade those cards and any cards in your hand for cards from other players.
You can even make future promises for cards received right now!
Once all trades are complete - and all trades in a turn must involve the active player - you end your turn by drawing cards from the deck and placing them on the back of your hand.
When you harvest beans, you receive coins based on the number of bean cards in that field and the beanometer for that particular type of bean.
Flip 1-4 cards from this field to turn them into coins, then place the rest of the cards in the discard pile.
When the draw pile is depleted, shuffle the discard piles, replaying the draw pile two more times.
At the end of the game, everyone can harvest their fields, then whoever has earned the most coins wins.

Hello everyone !
The Statue of Liberty is a gift from France.
This monumental sculpture is one of the greatest symbols of the United States.
Proudly erected on Liberty Island in New York, it is known throughout the world.
But did you know that it had been offered to the Americans by the French people, as a token of friendship?
The iconic statue was built in France for 9 years before being unveiled to the public on October 28, 1886 to mark the centenary of the declaration of independence of the United States.
It was classified as a national monument in 1924 and has been on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1984.
Its official name is "Liberty Enlightening the World", or in French "La Liberté illuminant le monde".

Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of the JJV Offs!
Create a link through board games.
Board games are an invaluable fun tool! In addition to providing an unforgettable moment of fun, they also often allow you to open up to others.
Whether this link is between parents, grandparents and their children or between friends or acquaintances, the game allows you to discover the other through common rules.
Since I've been hosting, I've noticed that the game allows you to listen to others, because you need other players to progress in the game together.
Cooperative games are not the only ones to allow this.
Developing thinking, speed and strategy, "board" games also allow everyone to share together.
We always enjoy sharing a game with family or friends.
Party game, strategy, family, children; there is something for all ages and all tastes and levels!

Hello everyone !
Today we are going to talk about Sheepland! Sheepland is located on the beautiful island of the same name, where for centuries people have cared for sheep.
While inexplicably working in the same field, two to four shepherds try to move the sheep into the correct areas to score points.
During a turn, you must perform three actions, chosen from these possibilities:
- Move your Shepherd
- Move a sheep
- Buy a land tile
You must move your shepherd at least once during your turn, and you cannot perform the same action twice in a row without moving the shepherd between the two actions.
Six different types of terrain are available, with five tiles of each type and increasing costs (from 0 to 4 dinars).
When you buy a tile, you are not claiming land on the game board, but rather investing in that type of landscape because that is where you expect the sheep to eventually graze.
At the end of the game, you score 1 point per tile of a land type for each sheep in a region of that type; you also score for the coins still in hand.

Playful heart: volunteering around games!
Every year we participate in various voluntary events in Vaucluse and Maine-et-Loire.
Different benevolent associations that are vital to the well-being of the public who benefit from them.
It's not much, but we offer our time and game donations.
Even if sometimes it's not much for us, it can mean great things for the people who receive them...
Promoting hobbies and seeing a smile appear on the faces of these people with a big heart is magical.
Surrounded by other volunteers with a big heart, it's always a pleasure too.
For the sake of the respect and discretion demanded by these associations with a big heart, we will just tell you that we have some of them particularly at heart.
The associations dedicated to children remain the ones that touch us the most...
Making a sad child smile gives you eternal magic in your heart...
I take this opportunity to thank once again all the volunteers who are the heart of these magnificent associations!

Hello everyone !
The Okanagans.
The Okanagan (in Canada) or Okanogan (in the United States), are a population of Native Americans whose territory of origin extends on both sides of the border between the State of Washington in the United States and the province of British Columbia in Canada.
In their own language the Okanagan call themselves “Syilx”, they are part of the ethnological and linguistic groups called “Interior Salish”.
The traditional territory of the Okanagan people covers an area of approximately 69,000 km2.
Its northern boundary is near Mica Creek, just north of the city of Revelstoke, while it is bounded on the east by Kootenay Lake.
The southern boundary is near Wilbur, Washington, and the western boundary is the Nicola region.
In the United States, the Okanagan population is organized in an official structure called the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation whose constitutional texts were approved by the American federal government on February 26, 1938.

Animate to inspire, lead someone to discover and discover themselves.
Animation is always a pleasure for me.
Sharing good times with my players is essential and rewarding every time.
Beyond sharing and exchanging around games, I have seen that the game can have a soothing or stimulating effect depending on the players.
I have seen many players who have become more comfortable with other players over time.
Offering a moment of relaxation and complicity, the games animations are attentive to all profiles.
Shy or more extroverted, I have seen players open up more easily to others and make friends during the game time that I host.
Stimulating for some players who have interactions that allow them to gain confidence in others and to open up to others and help others to open up as well.
Beyond just a shared game, it is a real exchange and sharing of every moment.
Thank you to my players for all our shared moments and each one all unique!

It's carrot harvest day in the farmer's vegetable garden.
Hop!
Little greedy rabbit that you are, you are trying to harvest as many carrots as possible.
Gather your harvest hoping it will be enough to satiate you.
Roll the dice and move forward on the corresponding color.
Collect the indicated number of carrots to have the most all together at the end of the game.
Happy Bunny is a cooperative game where you must all together collect as many carrots as possible before the rabbit leaves the vegetable garden!
Happy Bunny allows the little ones to start learning about board games through cooperative play.
The recognition of colors and the simple learning of calculation by adding collected carrots allow them to discover board games gently by following a little rabbit.

Hello everyone !
The cemetery town of Colma has more dead than alive.
Located in the suburbs of San Francisco, the city of Colma is nicknamed "City of the Dead", "City of Souls" or "City of the Silent".
With chilling names like these, some explanation is in order, isn't it?
At the end of the 19th century, the gold rush rapidly increased the number of inhabitants of San Francisco and the population greatly feared the spread of contagious diseases, such as cholera.
The city's board of supervisors, concerned about lack of space and public health, voted to ban burials within city limits in the early 1900s.
Ten years later, the decision to exhume the corpses and transport them elsewhere was taken.
Therefore, the small municipality of Colma was officially created in 1924 to serve as a necropolis.
Today, there are 17 cemeteries in the small town where the number of buried bodies is a thousand times higher than the number of inhabitants.
No wonder the city's slogan is "It's great to be alive in Colma"!

Welcome to a new opus of the JJV Offs!
Find your child's soul through board games.
Board games are an interesting hobby for children, but not only…
During my times of animation with retirees, the playful interest is also there.
Not having always had the opportunity to play before or having stopped for a while, they find the pleasure of playing together.
Sharing a moment around a game allows them to discover games unknown to them until then.
Curious and motivated to play, discovering new games does not scare them.
Allowing them to find varied interests is very interesting for us.
Particularly fond of chatting about games, these moments of discovery and sharing allow us a respite in sometimes very full days.
Many have found friends with other players, creating or recreating a bond between them.
Some even confessed to having “rediscovered their child’s soul” by playing during our playtime.
What a pleasure to share his passion with our players, young and old on a daily basis.
Thank you all for sharing the fun adventure with us!

Today we are going to talk about Fabulosa Fructus!
Once upon a time there was a marvelous forest that was full of sumptuous fruits, the juices of which could be mixed to obtain delicious cocktails.
In search of the tastiest fruits, friendly inhabitants of the forest will help you in this quest by giving or trading them to you.
Greedy and thirsty, will you be the first to get your Fabulosa juices?
Fabulosa Fructus is a game with constantly evolving mechanics. The game begins with a relatively simple initial rule.
But as you play games, the mechanics and your gaming experience evolve.
This is the hallmark of games in the Fabulosa range.
However, unlike a "Legacy" type game, these changes are never final.

Today we are going to talk about Bison!
Will the chief of the tribe manage to save his village with the help of his four dogs?
Otherwise the bison will cross the river... and win this game of chess!
Aim of the game:
The two players have a different aim:
The player controlling the bison seeks to bring one of his animals to the other side of the board.
The goal of the other player is to succeed in preventing them from passing by catching them with his Indian chief or by stopping them with his dogs.
Rules of the game:
Place the 11 bison on one side of the board, in a straight line behind one of the rivers and, just in front of the other river, place the Indian chief with his dogs on either side.
The bison advance like pawns in chess, the dogs like checkers but cannot take bison, and the Indian chief like a king, he can take bison.
The bison begin...
At the end of the round, the roles are reversed.
The first to win a round on both sides wins the game.

One can also tease his parents or his children within the framework of the game by stealing victory points from him or subtly blocking him.

Today we are going to talk about Little Factory!
Little Factory, first released as Goods Maker, is a resource management and building construction card game for 2-4 players with a playtime of approximately 30 minutes.
Players increase their assets by processing resources into other resources, such as processing wood into wood or charcoal, or processing charcoal and flour into bread.
If you increase your assets, you can build a building and use that building to acquire resources and victory points faster.
The more buildings players construct, the more actions are available in subsequent turns.
In turn, players perform one of two actions:
Production: choose a resource card or a building card in the production action area and gain the item indicated there; Where,
Trade: Discard resource cards from your hand to acquire resource or building cards of the same value or less from the available cards.
Additionally, players may use the effects of each building they own once per turn (including the turn in which they were acquired).
An example of a building effect is: exchanging a thread card in hand for an available cloth in the playing area.
Chain cards, buildings and actions together to create more victory points.
The player who collects more than 10 victory points first wins!

Indian Summer
When it appeared in the United States, probably at the end of the 18th century, it referred to a peculiarity of the continental climate of North America.
This peculiarity occurs in Canada and the United States, between the beginning of October and mid-November.
The Indian summer corresponds to a period of surprisingly mild weather for the season and which arrives after an initial period of frost.
If the nights remain cool and the mornings misty, the daytime weather is then mild, sunny and dry.
Temperatures are at least 5°C higher than normal for the season and can exceed, sometimes briskly, 25°C.
The Indian summer can last between 3 and 8 days.

And at the end of the allotted time, it's up to the next one to try their luck.

The game at work.
When I was a facilitator for the city of Angers, I participated with my fellow facilitators in a “group cohesion” workshop.
We participated in a workshop with board games with successive challenges that required collaboration between the facilitators to succeed.
Based on this excellent idea of a Team building workshop, we now offer workshops aimed at companies with the aim of creating cohesion within teams.
Cohesion in a team is not an innate thing.
Board games offer an original and different approach to the usual team building.
The discovery and the expectations they create make it possible to grope on more slippery ground in a team.
By dint of groping, we end up putting our finger on things that we would not have paid attention to in normal times.
A good progress indicator for a work team and ways to achieve common goals.
PS: In Angers, we were a close-knit team and passed the tests easily. It helps to know the strengths and weaknesses of your colleagues to progress together in a team spirit... ;)

It's too late. In the year 2059 the degradation of the climate on Earth has become irreversible.
Scientists have demonstrated that in 2122 the Earth will no longer be habitable for any living species.
Man, victim of his past mistakes, must find a solution for the survival of his species.
He then begins his most gigantic and most altruistic enterprise: to organize during the next half-century the exodus towards other sites of the solar system for his great-grandchildren whom he will very probably never know.
Any group of humans from 2 to 6 people aged 12 or over can participate.
During the game, players prepare missions to reach the stars of the solar system. T
hey take advantage of the powers they have acquired and try to avoid events that could lead to the delay or dismantling of their missions.
They gradually build bases on these stars in order to colonize the solar system and take the strategic positions that bring them the most victory points.

Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of “Offs du JJV”!
The game for super grown-ups!
The board game can be a very useful tool for children of all ages!
Many people working with children use board games as a learning aid or to stimulate children.
Whether it is for fine motor skills, memory, observation or the development of a simple strategy, the board game allows you to progress while having fun.
More and more board game publishers are adapting their range of games to offer a wide range of varied games to children according to their age.
And then when children see adults playing, very often they want to play like them and with them.
It is a way of stimulating their curiosity and awakening them to exchange through complicity with adults and common rules.
Often quite fast for children, play allows them to express and manage their emotions.
Indeed, managing frustration in defeat or remaining humble in victory is not easy at certain ages.
On an equal footing with adults during the game, the rules ensure the child's confidence and self-esteem.
So for the super-big, a little game to start, it's already good to learn about board games. ;)
Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !
Today we are going to talk about Oceanos!
Players will explore the ocean floor while developing their submarines in three rounds that represent different levels of depth.
The more powerful the submarine, the more victory points it will bring.
During a round, everyone must choose between the short term (exploring the seabed) or the long term (developing their submarine).
There are two ways to earn points: – either catch fish within the limits of the aquarium's capacities, collect corals in order to create a long coral reef, or recover treasures with the help of divers. – or improve his submarine to increase his capacities.
Indeed, like a puzzle, the submarine is made up of several parts (the periscope, the cockpit, the tank, the rudder, etc.) that we will be able to assemble.
Each part of the submarine can be improved: you can cover more distance with a more powerful engine, collect more fish in a larger aquarium, receive more cards with a larger periscope, collect more treasures with more divers...
Each player thus experiences a certain pleasure in watching his submarine grow...
Good day and good game ;)

In JJV's Offs
Welcome to a new opus of “Offs du JJV”!
Sharing together.
During outdoor entertainment times, we offer various and varied play times.
The habit of the game is taken little by little for novice players.
But from the moment you are curious to discover games, then you can manage to play and have fun as certain game mechanics are understood.
Novice players or connoisseurs, the discovery of a new game is not innate... for anyone...
The first parts of a game can be more or less laborious, whatever the level of the player.
It's brand new, it's all beautiful, it stimulates the brain! ;)
It's probably easier to adapt to a game when you've been playing it for a while, but everyone who discovers a game needs to play it to understand it better.
So, don't stress if you feel a bit lost at the beginning, we've all been in this case and we all always face a new game a bit. ;)
The main thing in the end is to share together! ;)
Good day and good game ;)
Hello everyone ! Here is our play with thought of the day!
"Travel with two bags, one to give, the other to receive"
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, German novelist, playwright and poet.
Good day and good game ;)
In 2 words game
Hello everyone !
Today we are going to talk about Picturally!
Each player will embody a tourist eager for a nice trip. He will receive his passport on which are registered his two centers of interest, out of the five in the game.
It is by visiting places that belong to these two families and only those that he will be able to score the precious Souvenir points.
Each player around the table will also have chosen a passport with a different combination of interests. At the start of the game, the tourists will agree on the route they will have to follow by successively placing step markers on the board as they see fit.
Thus are materialized the departure, the intermediate stages, and the arrival of the journey. All players must imperatively end their game turn having reached the next stage. But during their turn, it's free time! During their turn, they will be able to move around as they please to visit places that interest them.
They can therefore either visit the places directly listed on the board and visible/known to everyone (which earn decreasing bonus points for the first to stop there!), or by visiting the places that they are the only ones to know because indicated by the cards in their hand which they have drawn from their tourist guide or at a local tourist office and which others therefore cannot see, either (optional rules), by meeting local people who will advise you on a last category of places. (But this is another story).
Each way of knowing a place has its advantages and disadvantages! They will therefore chain the days of travel and try in the allotted time, without getting late, to score the most Souvenir points, to be the one who will have the most at the end of the last stage and be the winner.
But there are four major subtleties that add spice to the game: First: any action (moving or visiting) will gradually lower Curiosity (the gauge visible on the player's passport). You cannot have more cards than Curiosity points in your hand. Otherwise, we must reveal the excess cards by putting them on the edge of the board face up and placing a cube of the color of the card in the box of the board where it is attached (it serves as a reminder, in short) .
Any other interested player can suddenly, in turn, take advantage of the places that the player had jealously kept in his hand for his own profit a few moments earlier, and score the points in his place (after which, the card is withdrawn and will therefore no longer benefit the player who discarded it).
Second: at the end of each stage, players regain Curiosity points to attack the next day, and renew their hand by drawing again. They may end up with cards that do not match their interests and can then trade them for cards from other players.
But this exchange phase opens the door wide to bluffing! We only have the right to indicate to the other the general (and approximate) geographical area where the card is located, and the family of interest associated with it.
Everyone is free to dangle the other that he will give him gold bars when it is a crap, in the hope that the naive gives you the card of your dreams. We need others, but at the same time, it would be a shame if they won in our place...
Third: bonus Souvenir points are offered to those who end their day with zero Curiosity (the satisfaction of a busy day). We can see from here the optimization of the route… (“idiot” trips are obviously prohibited)
Fourth (it was easy): the turn order is determined by decreasing Curiosity, but the problem is that as you have understood everything, it decreases over the course of our visits when our Souvenir points go up!
Combined with the previous rules points, we realize that, if we push it, the game can become one hell of a basket of crabs!
We know who is playing before us, after us, what he likes, we see the cards that the players had to reveal previously and on which everyone risks rushing, the same goes for the places listed on the board, we know where everyone will end up at the end of the round, how many Curiosity points each one has left…
The winner will therefore be the one who has both scored the maximum number of points…but who has also left a minimum of gifts for others!
The icing on the crate, you can play it in teams of 2. Either by managing the two tourists yourself, or with a real player behind each tourist.
In which case, the two traveling companions are two in the same car, with their common points and their divergent interests...
Good day and good game ;)
