About Rakupenda
Hi my name is Rakupenda
My favorite tabletop game right now is Gloomhaven.
--- I'm a fan of engine builders: Terraforming Mars, Fantastic Factories and Power Grid: Factory manager
--- Deck builders like Android Netrunner, Dominion, Clank and Shadowrun Crossfire.
--- Worker placement are lower on my list of favorites, though I still enjoy them: Agricola/Caverna, Archipelago.
--- Other Good Ones: Betrayal at House on the Hill, Red Dragon Inn
Things I'm not a fan off:
--- Heavily RNG based games (Risk/Monopoly)
--- Social deduction games (Secret Hitler/Werewolf/Mafia)
--- Bluffing games (Sherrif of Nottingham or Cosmic Encounters)
Benefits to playing Tabletop Simulator over playing physical:
--- Zero clean up
--- Instant shuffling
--- Ability to rewind/undo
--- Often there are scripted mods to automate a lot of the mundane end-of-round cleanup/generation Euro-style games have.
--- You can play with your friends from the comfort of your own homes, therefore across the country!
