Puerto Rico, Drahtseilakt
Puerto Rico
There’s *nothing* I can say about this that has not been said already. We had a blast.
Drahtseilakt
We were after an end of night closer for three people, but overdid it with the lightness. This is the easiest trick-taking game I’ve played. There is nowhere near as much skill as in a simple game of Whist. I won, maybe because I tried to get rid of my mediocre cards early, so I had more control towards the end of the rounds. Although we had fun, we probably won’t play this one much more. With two plays, I think I’ve done it all.
I am in the market for a skilful, vicious, fast game for three. Any suggestions?
I like Drahtseilakt, but sure, it’s light. Still, I’m happy I got a copy (and that it’s not Relationship Tightrope).
My standard suggestion for three-player games is Sticheln.

Thanks for this. I also just checked the 3 player geeklist on the Sticheln page (www.boardgamegeek.com/geeklist.php3?action=view&listid=760) ,through your nomination, that suggests some more. I already have Olé, Ivanhoe and Vom Kap bis Kairo, so I will try them with three too. Cosmic Eidex looks interesting as well…
