You've been missing out. Showmanager is my go to six player game, especially for newbies. I've taught it to tons of people and it's always been a hit.

We really liked season one but thought season two was even better. Great show.
NYT Headline: Man Dressed as Chuck E. Cheese is Arrested on Credit Card Fraud Charges
Me: Please, let it be Florida... Please, let it be Florida...

Great article. A very good read for those interested in the game design process.
Way back in my programming days, I do remember seemingly every different language and platform having different rounding algorithms. I feel your pain.
Just played The Lord of the Rings: Fate of the Fellowship on Board Game Arena. Really enjoyed it - very good game. Great job, @mattleacock.bsky.social!

Gotcha.

For Jack Benny fans.
