A fun simulation of Indiana-Jones-style temple robbers. Players move through a Mayan temple, risking constant death while trying to get to the exit, carrying as much treasure as they dare. The more treasure cards you have, the fewer actions you might get this round. If your character gets killed, a second one can drop in and you may still get enough treasure and escape to win.

The temple starts with a room of crushing walls, leading into a winding passage that takes you past a lava pit and locked alcoves. The passage goes on, with two short-cuts that might save you time; a fast river or a rickety wooden bridge. You must balance attempts to grab treasure from the rooms, as you pass through, with staying ahead of a massive boulder, tumbling down the passage after you. If you have to let the boulder pass or be crushed to death, then you're forced to jump in the river and risk drowning just to get ahead. Otherwise, the boulder reaches the exit before you, blocking it and you're trapped forever.

Anyone interested please feel free to  sign up.


Victory requires respect for all the gods - players cannot afford to sacrifice to only one god, but must pay homage to each of five gods in turn. Each turn, the players bid for the favors of the gods, as only one player can have the favor of each god per turn - and each player is also limited to the favor of a single god per turn.

• Ares allows the movement of player armies and the building of Fortresses.
• Poseidon allows players to move their navies and build Ports.
• Zeus allows his followers to hire priests and build temples.
• Athena provides her worshipers with philosophers and universities.
• Apollo increases the income of his worshipers.

I just got a new game; Arctic Scavengers. I would like to get a game of that going for 6:30. It can run up to 5 players,  and is given as taking an hour to play.

It is a deckbuilding game with a direct as well as indirect competition element. An abrupt climate shift has started a new ice age, and players compete to pull together the strongest tribe from those who have survived.

I would like to play catan, but I don't have a copy.  I am also bringing "Unexploded Cow" and "Ticket to Ride".

I also still have tickets for the Steak Night for Judy.  Tickets are $25.

I really enjoyed Arctic Scavengers. I'm not sure how much replay value it has, but I'd definitely like to play it with the extra options there some time.
