Although I'm reminded of a game in the pictionary/charades category where one team sees the word first and orders the methods for describing that word by point value (so something like acting = 1 point, drawing = 2 points, etc). Then one person on the other team chooses a method and tries to get their team to guess the word. Anyone know what game this is? (Hopefully it's not on the list...I'd feel a bit silly) Games I would have liked to see on this list: City of Iron: 2nd Edition (or any of the games by Red Raven Games) Castles of Mad King Ludwig Vitaculture Yomi There are definitely a lot of games in this category. Your description reminds me a bit of Cranium - which I've played enough of and recently enough to make this list at this point - but that one's color-based as well. Giving and guessing arbitrary, trivia-related clues is a fun mechanic overall for me, but only Time's Up has really been able to tie them into a satisfying enough game package for me. I've only played Castles of Mad King Ludwig on that list. I really liked it because of the Master Builder system - player-defined marketplaces are awesome. Neat components, too. Viticulture I've heard a lot about and would like to try for sure. But I don't know about buying a worker placement game before playing it - hardly the genre that best appeals to me. --- yet all sailors of all sorts are more or less capricious and unreliable - they live in the varying outer weather, and they inhale its fickleness <cite>SeabassDebeste posted [p:898982818] in thirty-one...
