playing games with others

Over a series of weeks (really, weekends between work-related traveling), I played a number of games with my family and friends.  In addition to some board games (a regular in our house), I tried several card games, or board games that involved cards.  Here are a few images that document my experience...

PapPap introduced our son to what is now one of his favorite games: Cribbage

Playing Sequence, with a homemade card holder for my son.  We only played with 2 or 3 players, but you can play with teams (there are only 3 colors of markers for the board).

A simple, yet addictive game, especially with a larger group: 5 Crowns.  It was easy to learn, and fun for older kids and adults.

Gloom was a fun card game - more complicated to learn, but once we got the hang of it we really enjoyed it!  It was fun with just two players, but we also played with 4.  The instructions encourage you to build your own narrative along with gameplay, which was fun!
