Ryan, I need to slow down with new games here. I noticed in your list that a couple of the games in your bag were of your own creation. I've followed your links and printed up a copy of Wanderlust and Ferrball's Mansion. Wanderlust is different and interesting. I played it with my wife last night and we both liked it. I'll have to try Wanderlust with my oldest daughter and see what she thinks. I haven't had a chance to try out Ferrball's Mansion yet though but will try over the weekend. It look very promising. I'll have to let you know how it goes.
