The resources are used to build settlements, cities, roads or development cards. As you build you get more resources and victory points.

Othello

Othello is very fun and simple 2 player strategy board game. Its tagline “Minute to learn…lifetime to master” holds so true. The rules are so simple that even a 5 year old can easily understand and follow them. You master the strategy as you play the game as the lead can change hands from play to play. The game starts with two white and two black discs in the center squares on an 8 x 8 board. The 2 white discs are diagonal to each other and so are black discs. Player with black disc places a piece that is vertical, horizontal or diagonal to another one of their pieces. All the white discs of the opponent in between those, are swapped to become black disc. The game ends when all 64 squares are occupied.

Pandemic is a wonderful game of teamwork and strategy. The game has won many international award for best strategy board game in USA, Australia and France. In Pandemic, you and the other players work together to find cures to four different diseases to save humanity. Therefore, your team travel to major cities all around the globe to fight the disease, build research labs, trade city cards and even to eradicate diseases. There are many different characters to play from and each has their own unique ability. Since, it’s a team game, the team which has five of the same city cards, has visited the research lab and has cured the disease, wins. The losing team is the one with eight outbreaks in cities because outbreaks commonly happen from epidemics. There are six epidemic cards in total, but playing with few would make the game a little easier.

Sequence is a game of strategy and chance. The game can be played individually or as a team. You play a card in hand and place the corresponding chip on the board. Each card is pictured twice on the game board, so you need to place your chip wisely. The one eyed Jack is a wild card and gives you a chance to win because you can use it to remove your opponent’s chip. The two eyed Jack is also a wild card and it gives you a chance to place a chip on any space on the board. The first player or team who scores the required number of five cards in a row wins the game.

A logician went on vacation to an island. There were two different tribes that lived on the island. One tribe always told the truth and one tribe always lied. When he reaches to a fork in the road, he must ask a local person which way to go to reach the village. The logician has no way of knowing if the person is telling the truth or lying. He pause for a bit, then asks only one question. He knows which path to take based on the response.

What question does he ask?
