Hello everyone !
Today we are going to talk about Speed Color Team!
Add color to your challenges, as a team for 10 minutes, by completing the objectives!
Place a line of uncolored face cards in front of each team and the markers in the center of the table in the game box.
As a team, discover the cards with the colors to be made, memorize them, then try to reproduce them all together.
How ? By coloring the black white cards of your line before the other players.
Take the markers corresponding to the colors corresponding to those you need to restore colors to the card in front of you.
And since remembering colors and coloring is child's play, we add a little difficulty. ;)
We will add team challenges in a limited time, not to mention the markers whose color is not indicated anywhere!
It will therefore be necessary to communicate on the colors found and coordinate to use other colors while they are already used either by his teammates or by the players of the opposing team...
Who will be able to combine team challenge and communication to color the team cards as quickly as possible?
You can either play with one card in front of each team or several to spice up the game. ;)
The first team to finish coloring the cards in front of them or the most cards wins the game!
Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !
Night of the radishes (Mexico)
If the Christmas holidays in France are often associated with an increased consumption of chocolates, this is not the case in the city of Oaxaca in Mexico.
Indeed, every December 23, La Noche de Rabanos ("The Night of the Radishes") is celebrated there, a festival during which traders and artisans sell radishes intricately carved to represent nativity scenes, fauna and local architecture, as well as other relevant representations.
The radish carvings are sold as Christmas centerpieces, and the creator of the best radish drawing wins a cash prize.
An unusual Christmas tradition, certainly, but guaranteed without a liver attack.

Welcome to a new opus of “Offs du JJV”!
August 2017: retraining, training, creation!
After being an animator for years, I wanted to move into another career path.
When we acquired the local store, the idea to germinate in my mind, to create a board game store.
At this time, Vaison sadly saw a symbol disappear, the paradise of babies...
Fan of board games since my youngest age, I wanted to share with you my passion for games.
So I took a year to train myself in business management to prepare for the opening of the store in the most serene way possible.
To create the site, even if I was good at coding, I took courses to improve myself and be able to customize the site as much as possible.
And then come the stages of creation where you mature your project with encouragement on the one hand and non-constructive criticism on the other...
I then started from the negative to develop the positive.
Because the negative can help you become more sure of your project.
How ?
As far as I am concerned, by being even more vigilant than if I had only had constructive criticism.
Because if our project will always bother some people (and yes, there are always dissatisfied people), it will delight a large number of people.
So, believe in your projects, give yourself the tools to be able to achieve them and never stop progressing. ;)
And for entertainment, I already had many years of experience behind me and an adaptability to my entertainment groups that allow me to personalize the play times that we share together as much as possible.
I intend to remain a force of proposal to offer you unique moments, passionate conversations around board games.
Sharing my passion for board games with all of you will always be my best motivation!
So thank you! ;)
Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !
Today we are going to talk about Bubblee Pop!
No time to bubble, solo or in duo for 20 minutes, form your combos to win the game!
Line them all up!
In Bubblee Pop, players compete to save the Bubblees by lining up three of them horizontally or vertically.
Once lined up, the Bubblees give the player points and trigger special powers.
If you stack them the wrong way, you risk losing the game immediately.
Once the reversible board is installed between the two players, 3 black Bubblees take place on each of the players' planets.
It is then the Sky which is set up by the standard installation of colored Bubblees, so that two identical colors are not adjacent.
It's up to you to pop the Bubblees by assembling them by color and in groups of 3 or more via gravity which makes them fall 2 by 2 on your planet.
When things go wrong, powers are triggered and victory points are accumulated.
Fill the sky by drawing Bubblees from the bag. The active player may eventually swap 2 adjacent Bubblees in the sky before obligatorily causing 2 to fall, horizontally or vertically adjacent.
These Bubblees, once they land, if they form an alignment (not diagonal) of 3 or more of the same color, are removed and placed in the scoring area.
This triggers a power depending on the color, a power that remains optional:
- Swap bubbles on your planet or the opposing planet;
- Send a Bubblee or drop one from the sky at his opponent;
- Finally, recover an uncovered Bubblee from his planet and place it in his score zone.
- Black Bubblees, on the other hand, have no powers. Finally, any holes left by the bursts are filled by making the Bubblees "fall" from above.
A single player mode is available where the objective is to empty the opposing planet which starts in a filling state indicated by the level chosen. There are 20 of increasing difficulty.
The only difference in the rules is that when a cluster of 3 Bubblees forms, you can choose to send one (see 2 if the combination is 4 or more Bubblees) to the neighboring planet, keeping the d column. origin before deciding to use the power.
The Black Bubblees are then obstacles that may be the only ones left on the otherwise emptied planet.
Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !
The legend of Krampus (Germany, Austria, Hungary).
Have you ever heard of Krampus?
In Germany, Austria or Hungary, it is a name that makes people shiver.
And for good reason: Krampus is none other than the diabolical and furry alter-ego of Santa Claus.
According to legend, if Santa Claus brings toys to “nice” children, the Krampus has the mission to punish the children on the “naughty” list.
Most of the time, he is content to scare children with his bestial demeanor, but he is said to throw particularly naughty children into his bag, or chain them in his basket to take them to hell.
It is for this reason that in Austria and neighboring countries, people often dress up as Krampus in early December and roam the streets to scare children.
Good day and good game ;)

Welcome to a new opus of “Offs du JJV”!
The games that forge us and accompany us.
Board games have always accompanied me since I was young.
Starting with the battle, going through the werewolf and continuing with Patchistory, among many others; I find it a source of fun and discovery.
They allowed me to escape from everyday life and to get to know myself and you.
Because behind a board game, it is above all a shared and unique moment.
A board game is not just an object!
A board game is moments, conversations, laughter, giggles, etc...
Who doesn't remember memorable parties around a board game all together?
And then, from the store, the games allow me to share good conversations and good times with you!
My favorite moment of all would be when I started playing!
My first battle with my grandma around 3 years old.
And you, what would be your favorite moment around a board game?

Hello everyone !
Today we are going to talk about 8 bit box!
Lovers of old-school video games, get out your coffee tables!
8Bit Box is a set of 3 board games, directly inspired by retrogaming for about 30 minutes and 3 to 6 players.
Each game board will remind you of the biggest names in video games of the 80s, which you will have the pleasure of introducing to your loved ones for incredible moments with friends or family.
With its 6 controllers, 8Bit Box allows you to invite up to 6 players for frenetic games.
It contains all the basic equipment, common to all of your games (pawns, dice, tokens, etc.).
The 3 included games are presented individually, like the game cartridges of yesteryear.
Each contains the specific hardware needed to play it, which complements that of 8Bit Box.
As for the controllers, they allow each player to plan and perform their game actions, such as the movement of characters or vehicles.
All together, you play board games on a table that take up the major themes of video games.
It is clearer ?
So, don't wait any longer: unplug the screens, and open the 8Bit Box!
In the center of a printed circuit, Pixoid tries to escape the Bugs who want to catch him.
Controllers in hand, the Pixoid player and each Bug player move around the circuit.
Pixoid must survive as long as possible without being hit.
Bugs players, meanwhile, must coordinate their moves to capture Pixoid.
In this asymmetrical game in "all against one" mode, the players take turns embodying the brave Pixoid.
A fun and jubilant tribute to one of the most famous video games on the planet.
Pilot in the middle of obstacles and under the fire of opponents! Using your controller, you zigzag through a canyon to cross the finish line first.
Know how to position yourself wisely at each new course tile revealed, watch your fuel, and pick up the right bonus at the right time to leave your competitors in the dust!
A great futuristic racing classic, full of adrenaline and fun!
In this multi-test game, you will have to know how to manage your energy to become the God of the stadium.
Use your controller wisely to measure your effort, and know how to trust your teammates to take over if you are out of breath.
10 events await you: which team will bring back the most medals?
Stadium is a revamp of old-school sports games, swapping the frenzy of the controller for a tasty mix of management, tactical opportunism and team spirit.

Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of “Offs du JJV”!
Cluedo, Mysteries of Peking: developing a logical mind.
I love when an air of mystery and reflection surrounds me…
That's what's great about investigation games or role-playing games!
We can integrate an atmosphere to make the game even more addictive.
A werewolf with good background music and a good playmaker is great!
I really like to incorporate an air of mystery into all my werewolf games, for example.
My players appreciate it and ask for more and I love being able to offer them the game this way!
For logic and investigation games like Cluedo or
The mysteries of Peking, we begin to look for some leads and, by deduction, solve investigations by following clues.
The competitive side with other players is quite stimulating. You learn to have to think faster and more efficiently than others if you want to hope to win.
We develop a logical mind that then makes us want to test much more complex games.
We start with simpler games, then we move on to more complicated games, to end up with expert games.
And then developing a logical mind is always useful in everyday life!

Today we are going to talk about Loops!
Embark on a journey of at least 15 minutes from 2 to 10 players for a high-flying moment.
Settle into the cockpit and take off for an uncontrolled adventure...
In LOOPS, players fly the same plane together, taking turns controlling its altitude and direction.
Keep the right cards in hand and trap your opponents by changing the direction or attitude of the plane.
The players take turns placing an altitude card (or several if they are identical), respecting 2 conditions:
- One direction: to the right or to the left; which indicates the order in which the players around the table must play.
- A base: positive or negative; which indicates whether the altitude of the aircraft should increase or decrease.
When a player cannot place any card during his turn, he recovers all the cards placed on the table.
Keep the right cards in hand to never be blocked.
Trap your opponents by changing the direction or attitude of the plane using special cards.
Be the first to run out of cards to win the game.

Hello everyone !
Do you know the name of the cards?
It was already known that kings in card games featured real kings, namely Charlemagne, Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar and King David.
But what about other cards?
Well it's simple, all jacks and all ladies also have their own name.
Thus, the valet of hearts is Lahire (Etienne de Vignolles), a comrade in arms of Joan of Arc while the lady of hearts is named Judith.
The name of the Jack of Diamonds is Hector, presumably for the hero of the Trojan War although other theories exist.
The queen of diamonds is called Rachel.
On the side of the spade, the valet bears the name of Ogier, one of Charlemagne's 12 peers, while the queen is called Pallas.
Finally, the jack of clubs is Lancelot, for Lancelot du Lac, while its queen is Argine, for the anagram of Regina…aka “queen” in Italian.

Puzzle: my insoluble disinterest.
I like a wide variety of board games, but I have to admit that puzzles are the exception that proves the rule for me.
A game logic that is completely beyond me, whereas, according to friends, they are much less complicated than the expert games we play together...
I have no idea why I can't grasp the logic of the puzzles, but it won't.
After all, we can't love everything and be interested in everything around us.
You could easily beat me at rubik's kub for example.
The only time I managed to make it complete as a child was because I had peeled off the labels and reattached them in the correct order afterwards… ^^
We agree that it doesn't matter. ;)
However, I like games that have a high demand for logic and thinking.
I love the simplicity as well as the complexity of a game, because it opens up to different game mechanics.
I like when the games are very difficult and you have to rack your brains to know which strategy will be effective.
The puzzles will live up to their names as far as I'm concerned.

Hello everyone !
Today we are going to talk about the game of the goose!
A good classic, from 2 to 6 players and about 20 minutes, to land on the right squares. To your geese!
The game of the goose is a parlor game where pawns are moved according to the results of two dice.
Traditionally, this game of pure chance comprises 63 squares arranged in an inwardly-wound spiral with a number of traps.
The goal is to get to the last square first.
The basic rule is intangible. The game is played with 2 dice. A first move decides who will start.
The goose signals the lucky squares arranged 9 by 9.
No one can stop on these beneficial squares and the roll is then doubled.
• Who rolls 9 on the first roll, will go to 26 if he did it by 6 and 3, or to 53 if he did it by 4 and 5.
• Who drops to 6, where there is a bridge, will go to 12.
• Who drops to 19, where there is a hotel, rests when everyone plays 2 times.
• Which falls to 31, where there is a well waiting to be raised.
• Who drops to 42, where there is a maze returns to 304.
• Who falls to 52, where there is a prison waiting to be picked up.
• Who falls to 58, where there is death, starts again.
The first to reach 63, in the garden of the goose, wins the game.
On condition of getting it right, otherwise he goes back, on as many squares as he has left to go.
If a player lands on a square already occupied by another player, he sends the latter back to the square from which he started.
There can only be one player per space.

Hello everyone !
Why a game with 52 cards?
If you own a classic deck of cards, it normally has 52 cards.
But why this figure and not 50 or 58 exactly?
The 52-card deck is actually based on the ancient Egyptian lunar calendar.
The 52 cards represent the 52 weeks of the year.
And that's not all: the 13 cards that make up each color designate the 13 lunar months of the Egyptian calendar.
And, finally, the 4 colors represent the 4 elements: water, earth, fire and air.

Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of “Offs du JJV”!
Trivial pursuit: to develop one's knowledge and cultivate oneself.
One of the general knowledge games that marked my childhood is Trivial Pursuit.
The Genius version allowed me to play with my older cousins.
It started with the desire to want to play the same games as my cousins, then it continued with the desire to discover and learn new things.
With well-known categories such as cinema, heritage, music, history, geography, etc., I loved discovering new things while playing.
As a team with one of my cousins ten years older than me, we complemented each other according to the areas of the questions.
But beyond that, we were all playing together and laughing as we learned.
Especially since the Trivial Pursuit is now adapted in several versions and themes, which allows you to play a variety of general knowledge.
Since I was little, I have always been very curious and I have always liked to learn things, so a game that combined play and knowledge was a great discovery for me.
Some general knowledge games now sound much more dynamic and sometimes offer the addition of challenges to set the mood a little more.
What we did to spice up the game with my cousins was to add pledges and constraints or advantages and special points through various challenges.
This could make games of general knowledge just so laughable and unforgettable!

Hello everyone !
Today we are going to talk about Battle Gum!
No time to bubble! From 2 to 4 players and about 15 minutes, discard all your cards, but watch out for the traps!
We are here in a discard game where you will have to be the first to have no more cards in your hand.
It all starts with the usual distribution which will be divided into three parts.
Three cards in the players' hand, three cards placed in front of them face down and three others face up.
At the start of the game, players will be able to freely switch between their hand and the visible cards.
To initiate a trick, a player can place up to three cards provided that they are of the same value.
The following players must place one or more cards of equal or higher value than those already placed.
If by chance a player can no longer play cards that meet this rule, he collects all the cards already played and adds them to his hand.
A player who has played draws again to have three cards in hand again.
When the draw pile is exhausted, attack the cards placed in front of you.
In the deck of 54 cards, 22 have special powers. The 1 for example can also land a 13 (the strongest card).
The 8 will skip the next trick, etc.
The rules are proposed with variants which make the pile played disappear under certain conditions.

The shape of the cards has changed over the centuries
Throughout history, players have been able to indulge their passion through very special card games.
And yes, the rectangular and practical card game to carry as we know it today did not always exist in this form.
During the first centuries following the appearance of this game, players had the opportunity to handle much larger cards and even oval, round or even triangular cards.

Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of “Offs du JJV”!
Yu Gi Oh: managing combos, effective and destructive strategies.
Among all these games that I played a lot, there are card games such as heros dei, magic or even yu gi oh.
Less interested in magic and moderately in hero dei, my teenage preference was for Yu gi oh!
I adhered much more to this universe than those of magic and heros dei.
I loved the fact that we could start from small cards to make super powerful combos!
When I came across the red-eyed black dragon or even alpha the master of beasts or other special or rare cards, I was super happy.
I remember creating all kinds of effective and destructive strategies that allowed me to win outright against other players.
Even when I played again 15 years after quitting with a client, I managed to do a combo that won me in the second round.
I was as surprised as my client, because I thought that in 15 years that I had not played there, I would be rusty...
There is always a way to find a combo to counter his opponent's attacks or to return his attacks to him.
Sometimes, you even have to sacrifice a little to protect yourself and react to win the game or gain experience.
Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !
Today we are going to talk about Witty Pong!
Ping, Pong, Ting, Tong! Something very strange is happening in the jungle for 2-8 players and about 15 minutes.
In Witty Pong, the ping pong table is recreated by laying four cards in a 2x2 square, with a ball token being placed on one of the cards.
On their turn, a player turns over a card and places it on one of the three cards not covered by the ball. Two situations can occur:
• If the card represents a ball somewhere in the illustration, the player must move the ball token to a new card. If he says something or hesitates too long, he loses one of the three banana tokens he started the game with.
• If the card does not have a marble on it, the player must say the word “appropriate”, the word being determined by the letters and colors of the three cards uncovered. The word begins with "P" or "T" depending on which letter is displayed more frequently, and ends with "ong" or "ing" depending on whether more blue or red paddles are displayed. If he says the wrong word or takes too long, he loses a banana.
Lose all your bananas and you're out of the game. The last player standing wins.
The game includes advanced rules that change what to say if the same letter or color is on all three palettes; additional rules allow for competitive play in which players can steal bananas from each other if they say the correct word first.
Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of “Offs du JJV”!
King Arthur, Atmosfear: challenge the game and surpass yourself.
I've played a lot of different games since I was young and I keep discovering new ones every day.
Because yes, the play experience is diverse and varied now thanks to talented authors, illustrators and creators.
When we talk about electronic games, it is technology that is at the service of the excellence of a board game.
I am thinking in particular of games like King Arthur or Atmosfear.
King Arthur which offers quests activated when our characters go to the place of its realization.
Atmosfear, where this game with a VHS tape (yes me too, I got old talking about it ^^) allowed to have ambient noises and the rest of the puzzles in a mysterious universe…
These games that are magnified by technology and making this type of game just unmissable and unforgettable!
Yes, these are games from the 80s-90s!
These games where you play against the game and where you have to try to brainstorm to try to win!
These games whose descendants could be these games guided by an application and where you have to solve an investigation or run away!
The 80s and 90s marked authors and inspired more modern games.
Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !
Today we are going to talk about Chapito!
Experience 15 minutes of pure balance for 2 to 4 players! Join the circus and become the best acrobat to win!
The Chapito circus is back in town with a breathtaking acrobatic show!
Stack the character blocks on top of each other by
trying to reproduce one of the figures indicated by your cards.
Keep your balance well so as not to bring down the whole show!
Place the 3 Podium tiles in the center of the table, spacing them about 10 centimeters apart.
Place the 9 Character blocks around the Podium tiles.
Shuffle the cards and deal 4 to each player.
Everyone tries to reproduce on a podium one of the
figures imposed by the cards in his hand.
Either choose a Character block that is not yet in play on a Podium tile to place it above any block (or stack of blocks) already in play, or on an empty Podium tile.
Either move a block or stack of blocks already in play above another block (or stack of blocks), or onto an empty Podium tile.
When a player moves multiple blocks at once, they can only do so by holding the lowest block in the stack.
Blocks can only be placed in their upright position, without rotation or flipping.
It is forbidden to make the exact opposite movement to that of the previous player.
At any time, even if it is not his turn, a player can shout: “Photo!” if a stack of blocks meets the conditions indicated by one of the cards in his hand.
He reveals his card and we check that he was not mistaken.
- if he is right, he places the card in front of him, face up and draws a new one from the pile to add it to his hand; then play resumes.
- if he made a mistake, he takes the card back in hand and the game continues.
If the same pile of Character blocks corresponds to several cards of a player, he can place them all in front of him to validate them.
He then draws to always have 4 cards in his hand.
If the card a player has just drawn corresponds to the layout of a stack in play, he can announce it and place it immediately before completing his hand again.
If a player knocks down a block or knocks over a stack of characters, their turn ends immediately, they must return one of the cards placed in front of them to the draw pile as a penalty.
If he doesn't have any, he doesn't return any and the turn passes to the next player.
Blocks that have fallen or are still in hand are replaced around the podiums.
The first player who manages to place 7 cards in front of him wins the game.
If several players play their seventh card at the same time, they share the victory.
Good day and good game ;)

Cluedo
Invented in England in 1943 by Anthony Pratt and his wife Elva Rosalie Pratt, Cluedo was originally called Murder, and was not quite as we know it today.
At the time, there were 10 characters, including Doctor Lenoir, Mr. Brown, Miss Grey, Mr. Gold and Sergeant Grey, and the absence of Doctor Orchidée and Madame Pervenche.
The syringe and the poker were also part of the weapons in the original game.
Finally, the gun room has been removed.

Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of “Offs du JJV”!
Mille Borne: managing your game and dirty tricks.
The Mille bornes is one of the other games that marked my childhood.
Progressing over the limits and hazards that we are asked throughout the game, taught me very young to manage the frustration linked to the difficulty.
Because yes, the dirty tricks can be numerous to the thousand limits, that's why we love or hate this kind of games in general...^^
You have to manage your game well to move forward without letting others progress too much to try to prevent them from winning.
A red light, a punctured wheel, an accident, or a lack of gas can slow you down for a while...
You can also curb the enthusiasm of other players thanks to speed limits.
The dirty tricks limit you for a moment, but with the right assets, you always manage to get back on your way.
And then, for those who play the game, the difficulties are part of the game and then make us progress faster to the next mile!
The dirty tricks, if you don't know how to manage your cards in hand, always end up leaving you on the sidelines.
I remain determined to share the playful world with you, because my driving force is these moments that we share!
Good day and good game ;)

2 words game Unsuspected treasures
On 20/10/2023
Hello everyone !
Today we are going to talk about Unsuspected Treasures!
Collect old furniture from a bulky waste collection site and make a profit by reselling it, for about 30 minutes for 3 to 6 players.
On a first-come, first-served basis, players can only take a few items at a time.
And they must beware of thieves, who are on the prowl and just waiting to steal goods collected from players' homes.
Each player takes a set of cards numbered from 0 to 5.
Each round consists of three phases which are played in the following order:
Deposit of new goods
The most valuable treasures to discover are at the bulky collection site. And they are increasing day by day!
Draw 1 mission card from the mission card pile and place it face up next to the other face up mission cards.
Take a merchandise tile from the cloth bag for each symbol on the mission card you just drew and place them in the bulky collection site, sorted according to their values.
Keep drawing mission cards until there are at least 2 goods tiles per player in the bulky collection site.
Any goods tiles in the possession of the players or that are next to the mission cards remain where they are and are not put in the bag.
Selection of the numbered card
Each player secretly chooses one of their 6 numbered cards and places it face down in their playing area.
After all players have finished placing their selected cards, all players turn their card face up.
Looting
If several players choose the same number, they fight over who can access the site.
Only the player with the lowest numbered contest token can leave their card on the table and can loot the bulky collection site.
The thief can steal as many goods tiles from his teammates as there are players heading to the bulky waste collection site.
Players who "stay at home" are not at risk of having their belongings stolen from the thief.
Once a player has all the goods corresponding to one of the mission cards, they can complete the mission by exchanging these goods.
A radio tile can also be used as a joker for any other commodity tile.
Once all the players have finished ransacking the bulky waste collection site, everyone gets their numbered card.
Players may keep any collected goods tiles that have not been used to complete a mission.
If there are any Mission cards and/or Goods tiles left, these also remain where they are.
Once the last mission card has been drawn from the reserve pile, the round is played until the end.
The game ends once the round is over.
Each player adds up the value of his completed missions, including the value of the goods tiles he still has in his possession.
The player with the highest score wins.
Good day and good game ;)
