On Day 3 of the @SpielMas ⛄️ festival, I didn’t get to play a game. My elderly aunt tested positive for COVID, so I have become a caregiver instead. It only makes our annual celebration all that more special, because life will always try to get in the way and Nature bats last. Play when you can, and cherish the moment! #SpielMas

I taught Codenames to old friends to celebrate the second day of the #SpielMas ⛄️ festival.

Come celebrate being able to play games with family and friends throughout the year! https://www.spielmas.com/

I started Day 1 of #SpielMas ⛄️ by playing one of my wife’s favorite two-player games, Blue Moon City. It actually plays up to four, but it is fantastic with two. What did you play to start the festival?

Merry Christmas 🎄 and Happy #SpielMas ⛄️ Eve!

'Twas the night before SpielMas when I rose from my bed,

To open a browser and surf the wide Web;

I tested my audio and video with care,

In hopes that my friends soon would be there…

I’m excited to announce that #SpielMas ⛄️ is teaming up with the Board Game Bistro to build a collectible photo collage of this year's best displays.

BGB is where seasoned gamers and designers are standing by to help build the hobby one game at a time.

It’s not unlike walking into a cafe to play any game you like knowing there’s always someone nearby to help or inspire you.

Your exclusive invitation is waiting at https://www.spielmas.com/blog/board-game-bistro

Each day we celebrate during #SpielMas ⛄️ is a privilege. We’ve created displays to record that celebration to share our joy with others. I started with a print-and-play, but others have turned to ceramics and 3D printing. The result is inspirational, with each year bringing more and more creativity.

Watch Holger Siebenich live on German television guess the name of a game by the sound of its components falling onto a table.

It’s “No Thanks!”

So says Jamey Stegmaier of Stonemaier Games (Wingspan, Scythe).

Pro Tip: It’s also the best game to introduce to non-gamers this #SpielMas ⛄️. It was a hit last year with my online gaming group on Board Game Arena.
