¿Question #219959?
purplewurple: I found a second hand copy of Fall of Magic and I'm super stoked. The game has a 5 ft scroll for a game board and metal coins as playing pieces. What was the last thing you geeked out over?

purplewurple: That's so cool! I hope you can get those minifigures! /// Fall of Magic is a freeform storytelling game, with story prompts more than rules, so it needs a group of players comfortable with improvisation and collaboration. You move from location to location, unrolling the scroll as you go, and describe the scenes using the prompts provided, slowly growing the story of the characters and their travels. I've never played it, but I think that with the right group it can be excellent. It gets good reviews, even from those who have only played the digital version without the tactile experience of unrolling the giant canvas scroll. /// I didn't thrift it, but found it on a facebook boardgame marketplace group for the equivalent of $50, including shipping. It's sold out everywhere, and would have set me back $140 when it was still in stores.
RavingLoon: Awesome find! How much was it? Have you posted it on the thrift list?

Woelf: The latest LEGO minifigures series is Marvel-themed, and has some amazingly cool figures in it. Every store that's supposed to carry them has been completely cleaned out every time I've checked, but they'll have to restock sooner or later. Worst-case I'll just get the few specific ones I want from eBay or BrickLink or something. /// That game map looks really cool. How does the game itself play?
