Hello everyone!

Welcome to a new opus of the "Offs du JJV"!

"A hero does not hide his tears. A liar does not cry."

We can't always succeed in achieving what we want and sometimes we are disappointed, because what we held dear did not work. But we focus on what did not happen to try to see what we can improve to always progress.

And sometimes it is painful to cling to projects that do not work and then we must let go so as not to remain stuck in this failure. There is nothing wrong with failing, it is also what ends up making us move forward or think of other ways of doing things.

People who tell you that they do not suffer from their failures are probably unfortunately in denial. Failure always triggers suffering in anyone in the first place.

It is what we do with this failure that is important. The first sessions I offered at La Sereno for example were quite difficult for me. I had never hosted with this audience alone before, but only intergenerational events where families were present.

The main difficulty I encountered was the categorical refusal to play games that were too colorful and that looked like children's games. Because yes, many board game designs now are much more attractive than the gray, white and black designs that predominated in the 80s during the rise of board games.

So, it took me at least two or three sessions to convince them that games are not just boxes, but above all interesting and entertaining content.

And then in the end, we ended up playing with more classic games at the beginning, then new ones from time to time and finally now they are happy to discover new games.

It goes to show that with my new approach, they were more likely to want to discover the hidden potential at the heart of board games.

Have a good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone!

Our Play with thought of the day comes from Gael Crutzen:

"A heroe doesn’t hide his tears. A liar doesn’t cry."

Have a good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !

And today we’re gonna talk about Orichalcum !

Warriors it’s up to you, from 2 to 4 players aged 12 and more for 45 minutes, to save Atlantis.

The prophecy of Atlantis is coming true, the cataclysm is coming! You have been sent in search of a new homeland. Explore the island, exploit its resources and rid it of the monsters that infest it to prepare for the great exile!

Build temples, forge Orichalcum medallions and attract the attention of the titans to be the first to obtain 5 victory points and win the game!

You will have to explore the island, produce resources, develop your base camp and confront the creatures that populate the island.

On Atlantis, thunder rumbles, the ground trembles and entire sections of land disappear under the waves! The Oracles are unequivocal: the prophecy of the ancients is coming true and the entire island is going to be swallowed up.

Faced with the imminent cataclysm, the king has sent his explorers in search of a new land that can welcome the Atlantean people. The survival of your entire civilization depends on it! You are leading an expedition.

You must be the first to find a welcoming land for your people!

Orichalcum is a race... against your opponents. The winner will be the one who is the first to accumulate 5 victory points above their board AND have eliminated all the Creatures on their island!

There are three ways to win victory points: attract the attention of the Titans, build Temples and forge the precious medallions of Orichalcum, this legendary ore whose secret the Atlanteans hold.

You begin each of your turns by selecting an Action card from those available in the center of the table. This choice has two consequences: it determines the Terrain tile that you will place on your island and the action that you can perform during this turn.

The 4 actions of the game will be valuable to be declared the winner. You will be able to Capture the Creatures populating your island. Recruiting Hoplites will be essential to fight but also useful to have more choices when selecting your Action card.

Building will earn you victory points by forging Orichalcum medallions or erecting Temples. And the Buildings you build will give you the abilities to develop your civilization.

Finally Producing Orichalcum will be essential if you plan to forge the precious Orichalcum medallions to win!

Good day and good game ;)
