What are you playing? Sept 2011 edition

[yeloson]

Well my videogaming is reduced as all my TVs have died the death, leaving my 360 alone.

But gaming continues:

Boardgames:
- Played Smallworld Underworld. Very fun and a good evolution from Small World. A notch more complicated, but not bad by any means.
- More Dominion. I keep getting schooled at this, so I'm guessing I need some practice.

RPGs:
- Apocalypse World http://apocalypse-world.com/forums/index.php?topic=1874.0
- Exalted, using the Sorcerer rules http://bankuei.wordpress.com/2010/10/04/sorcerer-exalted/ on Google Plus

Videogames:
- Trauma, a funky click puzzle game w/Okami style draw-symbol game play: http://www.traumagame.com/

You?

Night Circus. Uncompelling mechanics, very much aimed toward the casual "just click things" crowd, but the prose and the art (see icon) are gorgeous.

Final Fantasy IV. Geez, this game really benefits from dedicated sessions of play; passing by and glancing at the screen every few hours does not at all convey the richness of the setting and situation! I should resume playing this now that I don't have a deadline breathing down my back (for the moment).

I'm waiting for Emperor Edition to roll around and new strongholds to be released so I can start building an L5R deck again.

Back to playing endless sessions of Race for the Galaxy against the AI. I'm getting better at leveraging prestige in appropriate situations, and I still hate starting with Novelty worlds even though they can be extremely effective with the right build.
