On the first day of SpielMas…
What if we only sang about the “Six Days of SpielMas” instead of twelve?
What would it sound like in your house?
Or at your favorite game publisher…
Catan
Settlers of Catan is the venerable “gateway” game and runaway favorite for getting played during SpielMas.
On the sixth day of SpielMas, my true love gave to me…
Six Sheep to discard.
Five - Longest Road!
Four-to-One trade.
Three Ore tiles.
Two hexes of Wheat.
And a Robber on my city!
Stonemaier
The depth of the Stonemaier catalog only got deeper in 2019 with the addition of Wingspan.
On the sixth day of SpielMas, my true love gave to me…
Six painted landmarks. (Tapestry)
Five unlocked crates! (Charterstone)
Four eggs to lay. (Wingspan)
Three sand timers. (Pendulum)
Two jugs of wine. (Viticulture)
And a mech in a snowy field of trees. (Scythe)
Days of Wonder
Days of Wonder has some of the best online versions of their physical boards games.
On the sixth day of SpielMas, my true love gave to me…
Six Flying Orcs. (Small World)
Five routes through Bern! (Ticket to Ride)
One gang of four. (Gang of Four)
Three Wreck tiles. (Deep Blue)
Two Knights of the Round. (Shadows over Camelot)
And a tank on the beach at Normandy. (Memoir ‘44)
SpielMas
If I may so indulge…
On the sixth day of SpielMas, my true love gave to me…
Six friends on chat.
Five rounds to play!
Four cards to draw.
Three red meeples.
Two six-sided dice.
And a game with our friends or family.
