    Two New Games

    June 27, 2003

    🏷️ #boardgames

    Stopped by my friendly Rainy Day Games store over lunch today to pick up two new games: Balloon Cup and Quicksand. I walked in planning to get just Balloon Cup (I played it with Angela last month), but the owner gave such glowing remarks about Quicksand that I just had to pick it up. Since it is such a new release, I'll try and write a review sometime over the next few weeks.
