Tower of Babel
Players: Mike, Bob, Karl and Don This is becoming one of my favorite games. It is easy to teach is just the right length. There is a strategy to Tower of Babel that first timers may not get until near the end of the game. I used this to my advantage for a big win. Near the end of the game I gave Karl a hard choice. He could settle for second place and give me a larger lead or make it a closer game putting Don in second place and take third for himself. In the end he maximized his points and gave me a larger lead. Final scores: Mike - 87, Bob - 52, Karl - 68, Don - 65 |
