Citadels


2005, Age 23

Okay, this was a fun and cleverly structured card game and all, but I can't focus on that.
What brings it to mind is the plastic game pieces they use to represent gold. They look like butterscotch candies. I can't help picking them up and sticking them in my mouth. I get yelled at for it.
I guess the significance here is simple, subtle, yet highly effective "spectacle" of play pieces. It's kind of like in WoW when I keep opening and closing my map, over and over, because God I love that sound.
