Puerto Rico

Last night we had quite an evening as the Hayes came over for dinner and one of these famous German board games. We played the number one game in the boardgaming sub-culture world: Puerto Rico.

Essentially you manage the island, bring in settlers, plant crops, get a workforce on the job, build warehouses and processing plants, take your product to the trader or load it on a ship for the colonies.

It's easy to pick up and a bit of a thinking game but very accessible. Both Chris and Christine seemed to enjoy it and may have felt they were close to a win, but alas I came out on top with Sherry a close second... odd because I thought she was way behind. If we had one more round Sherry and Christine may have won hands down. Loads of fun.
