Dinosaur island is really good. I like it more than Terraforming Mars which is the most similar to it in my collection.

I actually don't have a zombie game yet - what is regarded as the best?

I really don't know - I have hardly actually played any
For miniatures lots of people like This is Not a Test - post-apoc really, not zombie - and I have seen a few people say Last Days has slotted into their top zombie minis games.
City of Horror I didn't like so much, Zombicide I think... I dunno it doesn't have that extra dimension for me.
I have Dawn of the Zeds 3rd edition on Kickstarter.
Dead of Winter I quite liked for the story /event card element but you don't move around much.
I really like DoW. The exposure die makes it brutal. We lost 3 colonists on the first turn on my last game. LOL.
I like the look of this zombie game: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/89910/run-fight-or-die

There's a group objective as well as individual objectives (most of which include achieving the group objective). There can also be a designated secret betrayer, who has their own set of objectives and is working against the group.

Big solo gamer and sports gamer here. I have almost all of Plaay’s games:
- History Maker Baseball
- History Maker Golf
- Soccer Blast
- First Season (NFL)
Also like Stratomatic baseball. Have a game called “Bottom of the 9th” which is great fun two player. Also available as an iOS app.
Have and love axis and allies. And munchkin.
Love chess.
I have Catan but don’t enjoy it that much to be honest.
Got this game called Detective for Xmas which is awesome.
In terms of games I want - I don’t want to become someone who just collects games for the sake of it because they are expensive. There seems to be so many who are more invested in building their collection as opposed to dedicating themselves to playing and becoming a master of good individual games. Im eyeing off Gloomhaven and have read good things but.

Catan definitely took time to grow on me. I can still remember playing it and not really enjoying it, but it's since become one of my favourites now. If you have given it a good go then fair enough, but for me it took at least a year after my first play to really click and start enjoying it

Yeah only played it 4 times. I like how easy it is to learn and teach others. It’s a great game for after dinner with friends. Maybe it will grow on me.

Years ago I was going to get Blokus after playing it at the library. I just never got around to it.
Picked it up for $10 second hand and my son wants to play every night. He’s actually been whittling down the score margin every game. He’s a week off winning one I think.

I'm not a chess fan - probably a result of my brother regularly kicking my arse at it as kids - but really enjoy Onitama. It's chess-like but the moves available to your pieces change every turn. I'd be intrigued to find out if chess fans would also enjoy it.

Thinking about backing Terror Below on kickstarter. Looks good.
Went to the Gameology Warehouse sale on the weekend and bought Klask, new Azul, Thanos Rising and a few kids/party games as presents.

Pre-ordered the new Star Wars game The Outer Rim today .
Anyone played Kingdom Death here? Currently in the beginning stages of a gloomhaven campaign and wondering how similar it is to KD:M? I also have that in packaging with some expansions that is on the cards to play next.
Gloomhaven is a game where there is a bit of skill.. a strategic euro/strategy. KDM is a mean random game where you can lose for no reason. More of a mean RPG. KDM annoyed me because off that.

Does anyone know any online stores that sell war games here in OZ . I am looking for games like the Holdfast series or Band of brothers . I know I can get them overseas but postage is out of this world
