We wanted to try Hats but don't have a copy yet so we used the Arboretum deck. Which turned out to be appropriate since the two games have similar tensions. It took a while to get past the usual intuition of expecting the cards in your hand to eventually end up in your tableau which is not how it goes in Hats. I like discovering games with interesting card flows.

We continued our Dorfromantik campaign. In the most recent game we took a lot of risks that didn't end up paying off but it's nice that you make some amount of progress even when things don't work out well.

Also had the chance to introduce a non-gamer to Cabo, she enjoyed it a lot and it was a nice change from our usual 2p sessions.

Expecting our copy of Meadow to arrive soon, looking forward to trying that.
