On January 4th, Patrick and I tried out the new version of the English Premiere League game that I discussed in an earlier post. In terms of stats, the model is really nice. Chelsea beat Man City 3-1, with three goals by Drogba and one goal by Adebayor. The total number of shots and saves was perfectly reasonable as well.I don't know that the game was any more enjoyable than the previous version. To be sure, the number of dice rolls was far lower (for the better). I don't know yet if that will translate into a better gaming experience. Patrick was sick last weekend, and he's busy today, so we probably won't have another test until next weekend. I need to draw up cards for two other teams, since we're getting a little tired of the same two teams. Patrick wants to play Manchester United, and I'll take Tottenham Hotspur for the next test.
If things go well, and I can make a few more teams, I hope to create a page at BoardgameGeek this spring and throw it open for general playtesting.
