Comments on: Step Right Up to the Carnival https://www.theboardgamefamily.com/2012/03/carnival-card-game-review/ Sat, 04 Jul 2015 22:58:51 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.1.5 By: Ralph https://www.theboardgamefamily.com/2012/03/carnival-card-game-review/#comment-488 Fri, 09 Mar 2012 01:45:52 +0000 http://theboardgamefamily.com/?p=4370#comment-488 Thanks so much for a thoughtful review of this title. We’re still easing into deck builder type games, and our only real experience comes from a game called Launch Pad. We enjoy Launch Pad a great deal, but like your daughter, we get really annoyed at the thievery that goes on. Ya work and work and work and work … and then BAM! someone steals all your good stuff. *grumble* I feel her pain. heheh

The theme and design of this (like LP) look really smart and are meaningful elements in our enjoyment factor. After reading your review and noting mechanic similarities, we might just give Carnival a whirl (if we can find it). The upside of the thievery here at least is that it comes from a random place. Hard to get upset at a set of dice. They hate me anyway … a-l-r-e-a-d-y know that.

Thanks again! 🙂
