A few weeks ago, I saw a post on Board Game Geek saying that the publisher OP Games was giving away copies of one of their newest card games: Tacta. I'm certainly not opposed to adding new games to my collection, so I signed up for the giveaway and promptly forgot about the whole thing. Flash forward a week or two later, and an envelope showed up in my mailbox with a brand new copy of Tacta!
This is a card game for 2-6 players in which players attempt to flip, twist, and turn their cards in order to cover as many of their opponents' colors as possible. To do so, players must match up shapes (squares, triangles, and rectangles) while creating an ever-growing board with up to six colors. According to the box back, games should only last about 20 minutes (which is perfect for a light card game)!
I'm excited to get Tacta to the table. It looks like an entertaining abstract game that I think my son will probably love (and quite possibly beat me at)! I'll have to report back once I've had a chance to actually play the game.
In the meantime, since OP Games was so kind to send me the game for free, the least I can do today is scan the ad that came with my game; maybe one of those games will catch your eye!
Personally, I like the look of Oasis: New Life on a Distant World. That game doesn't appear to be out yet, but I've already added it to my watch list on Board Game Geek.
Many thanks to the OP Games company for the free game! Happy Friday, everyone!
