Enjoyment - There's a fair amount of recency bias (and group bias) for Discoveries. I first played it back in the day at a meetup with an excellent teacher and a likable crowd. Subsequent plays, in the last six months, have all been with my core group, and we all play fast and friendly and are perfectly suited to a 'nice' eurogame. Discoveries got played three times in a row one sitting and twice in a row the next - not a lot of euros as substantial as this one can boast that type of playtime and satisfaction.

Future - As obviously hinted above, I'm looking forward to next time we play Discoveries. It's not immensely fulfilling or anything, but it's a visual and tactile delight, and it's a great blend of engine-building and big moves and a bit of push-your-luck due to some set collection elements.

Bonus question - What games have your favorite dice? What games do you think you're biased toward because of recency and the people you played it with?

Hint for #12 - despite its name, it's based on the original IP, not the vastly more popular adaptation of that IP
