Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of the JJV Offs!
5 years of the store, thank you!
I remember the first game I sold at the store was a 6 that takes, the day after it opened to a lovely gentleman who is always at the playful rendezvous of the store. ;)
I remember my first game animations at the store with Camille, Yanis, Tristan, Sophie, Jessica, Claire, Vanessa, Pierre, Lilah, Sarah, Adem, Maxime… among others… ;)
I remember my first outdoor activities for McDonald's in Saint Romain en Viennois, the first game festivals and activities in the store's toy libraries. ;)
I remember our moments of games shared within the various festivals, seminars, games animations, team-building, volunteering throughout the year. ;)
I remember everything ! From all of you! From every unique and magical moment that we have been sharing every day since June 25, 2018!

Hello everyone !
Today we are going to talk about Sushi Express!
In Sushi Express, from 3 to 6 players, become the best sushi delivery man for around 30 minutes.
Deliverers in a Japanese restaurant, players must accumulate the maximum number of Customer cards before the end of the game.
The game path is made up of 12 tiles (10 House tiles, 1 Sushi Express tile and 1 Park tile), laid out in a circle around a mini telephone-shaped board. Each time a player makes a complete turn (thus passing in front of the Sushi Express tile) he collects a Customer card from among those offered face up. In addition, a player who manages to stop in the park collects a face down Action card.
Two players cannot be on the same tile: the occupied tiles are therefore skipped "for free" when moving (they do not count when calculating the distance).
At each game turn, the players bet on the result of a roll of a pair of dice (thus from 2 to 12) by placing a marker on the central board.
Whoever has chosen the highest number rolls the dice first: he has two attempts to obtain an amount greater than or equal to his bet.
If he fails, he does not move his delivery man, but wins an Action card, and it is up to the next player to roll the dice to try to reach his bet, and so on...
As soon as the player obtains on the dice the sum he had announced or more (for example 8), he advances his deliverer by the number of squares fixed (8 tiles, even if he rolled 10 on the dice), without counting the occupied squares.
If he passes in front of the Sushi Express tile, he chooses a Customer card among those revealed (there are as many revealed cards as there are players).
The players who follow (who had therefore bet less than 8) then advance their delivery men automatically (without having to roll the dice) and also recover a Customer card if they pass in front of the Sushi Express.
Customer cards are available in different colors.
The first card of each color that you collect is worth 3 points, the following cards 1 point (for example, the 1st yellow: 3 pts, the 1st green: 3 pts, the 2nd green: 1 pt only). It is therefore necessary to try to diversify the colors.
There are also Tips cards: the player with the least Tips at the end of the game takes negative points.
Finally, the Action cards allow you to bypass certain rules: place the same bet as another player, swap your bet with that of another player, advance your delivery person one more tile, get a tip bonus, etc…

Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of the JJV Offs!
Always listening to you is important to me.
Since I opened the store on June 25, 2018, I have done my best to constantly listen to you.
And this is not ready to change, because listening to you is better to guide you.
This requires daily benevolence during entertainment times, advice (I hope) wise and in accordance with your interests or desires for games of the moment.
Accompany you on a daily basis when sending and receiving parcels, for your physical and digital document services and to accommodate your luggage when you visit Vaison.
It is by listening to you that I make progress:
-my range of games so that it adapts better to you.
- my animations to adapt them to the particularity of each of you who participate.
-the site on which you find the online games with descriptive sheets and videos.
- information from the game world or current themes that I offer on the store's blog and social networks.
- my passion for the game by sharing it with you every day!

Hello everyone !
Today we are going to talk about Tajuto!
Let's go to Japan with Tajuto, a game for 2 to 4 players lasting about 45 to 60 minutes.
In 532, Buddhism arrived in Japan, and took its place alongside Shintoism, which was the official religion.
Prince Shotoku, seduced by this new religion, commissioned Buddhist monks to build a village with a huge garden, in which 8 pagodas (tajuto) would be erected.
He announced that once the fourth tajuto is completed, it will make this city an important pilgrimage destination for all Buddhists around the world.
The Buddhist monk who has attained the highest level of Spirituality, through deep meditation and other mental qualities, at that exact moment will be rewarded, and the Prince will appoint him "Grand Guardian of the Sacred Garden of the Eight Pagodas", and this monk will become the overseer of the pilgrimage.
In Tajuto, players take on the role of Buddhist monks, trying to achieve the highest spirituality.
On their turn, they can activate their action tiles to draw (and build) pagoda tiles from the bag, make offerings to gain meditation points, and acquire tiles that will help them progress faster or gain spirituality points.
Activating more than one action tile or acquiring tiles costs meditation points.
The game ends once the fourth pagoda is completed. The player with the most spirituality points wins.
The main feature of the game is to draw the pagoda tiles from the bag.
The pagoda tiles have a decreasing size per level.
Players are encouraged to search blindly to try to recognize the floor by its size, but they probably won't be able to detect color that way, so drawing the size of the floor they want depends on their tactile recognition, but they must weigh their chances of drawing the flush they want.

White temple in Thailand
One such miracle is the White Temple in Thailand.
This unique art exhibit is owned by Chalermchai Kositpipat, who designed, built and opened it in 1997.
When you visit it, you have the impression of being transported to an Asian fairy tale!
It is practically all white, which gives you a feeling of weightlessness.
To feel like the hero of an Asian film, this is the place to come.

Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of the JJV Offs!
A vague uncertainty: start a project!
The life of a business is not only made up of ups, it is also made up of downs.
When you set up your creative project, there is some doubt about the feasibility of your project.
We wonder if the project is viable in the long term and if the public will be there.
When I launched my project to create the store in April 2018 in Vaison, I didn't know if customers would buy into it.
Quite simply because in 2018, the gaming world was not as developed as it is now in Vaison.
There was no game association or toy library to contribute to the dissemination of the playful world.
The various events that we go through with a company can comfort us in our idea or on the contrary plunge us even more into doubt.
It's not always easy on a daily basis, but I think it was the hardships I went through in the store that allowed me to believe even more in my project every day.
I am delighted today to see loyal customers and friendly players throughout the year.
Whether you are customers from Vaison, the surrounding area, other regions or other countries, thank you all for sharing this daily life with me.
I am proud to be able to offer you fun nuggets on a daily basis and the moments we share are my most beautiful guest book, so thank you!

Hello everyone !
Today we are going to talk about Wangdo!
Wangdo lets you explore Northeast Asia for 2-4 players and a game time of 30 minutes.
Long ago, before the age of man, there were four clans of bears that helped the king rule over Northeast Asia.
The time has come for the king to decide who will be the heir to the throne.
Clans send their princes out into the world to gain all the qualifications to be the next king.
They travel from town to town and build statues of sacred bears; in return they inherit knowledge of religion, education, military and trade.
The new journey is about to begin.
Who will succeed to the throne?
Summary of the game
1. Place the bear stelae to acquire a knowledge token.
2. Pay the equivalent in number and color at the temples.
3. If a player is done collecting tokens, the game ends.
During a turn, we take either 2 bear steles of any visible color available on the temples.
You can also choose to draw three at random or grab a token from the board.
To recover it, another bear stele of the player will have to replace it by being placed on an adjacent stele and which is not the color of the stele that you want to place.
You will then have to pay the number of steles of the same color as the adjacent steles.
The last stele placed on a temple line leads to the discard of all the steles in the bag and makes the person who places it win a stele of the temple they want.
The token is then placed on the player's personal board. We have completed a column as soon as we have two tokens when playing 4 and 3 when playing 2.
You can then perform the special actions offered by the bonus card.
The game ends when a player has collected 2 of the 4 different tokens.

China, amazing time zone exceptions.
It may be hard to accept, but there is only one time zone in China, although geographically this country is huge and could include 5 zones – there is only Beijing time!
For those living on the east coast of China, it can be very easy to be in tune with the official time zone.
But people in the western provinces may be uncomfortable.
For example, in Kashgar, the westernmost city in China, you can enjoy sunsets in July until 11 p.m.

The game, an inestimable heritage!
We, as we have inherited our games from ancient civilizations, board games are passed down from generation to generation.
Grandparents who through play enjoy a good time with their children and grandchildren.
Parents who share a moment or a passion with their children around games.
We have always played board games with our loved ones and acquaintances to have a good time together.
Since the 80s and the rise of board games, we are lucky to have more and more games of different styles and difficulties to adapt to all players, children, novices, insiders or experts.
The professionalization of the gaming world has given free rein to the creativity of authors, illustrators, young and old.
Always good ideas to share and develop to make all types of players play.
Real professions behind magnificent playful nuggets!
And yes, the game world is serious because otherwise it's not game ;)

Hello everyone ! Today we are going to talk about 7 wonders!
7 wonders is a cooperative game of about 30 minutes for 2 to 7 players. You are the ruler of one of the 7 great cities of the ancient world. Gather resources, develop trade routes and assert your military supremacy.
Build your city and erect an architectural marvel that will transcend future times. 7 Wonders spans three ages.
At each age, players are dealt seven cards from a particular deck, choose one of those cards, and then pass the rest to an adjacent player.
Players reveal their cards simultaneously, paying resources as needed or collecting resources or interacting with other players in different ways. (Players have individual boards with special powers on which to arrange their cards, and the boards are double-sided). Each player then chooses another card from the deck passed to them, and the process repeats until players have six cards in play from that age. After three ages, the game ends.
In essence, 7 Wonders is a card development game. Some cards have immediate effects, while others provide bonuses or upgrades later in the game. Some cards offer discounts on future purchases. Some provide military strength to defeat your neighbors and others only give victory points.
Each card is played immediately after being drafted, so you'll know what cards your neighbor is getting and how their choices may affect what you've already built.
Cards are passed left-right-left over all three ages, so you need to keep an eye out for neighbors back and forth. Although the previous editions box is listed as being for 3-7 players, there is an official 2-player variant included in the instructions.

The "Initiated" golden ace which rewards a game that is aimed at an audience accustomed to playing, turning to games with more elaborate mechanisms.
The rules require more attention, the set-up of the game is precise and the games can exceed one hour.
Living Forest is the first to win this award and ushers in a long list of future award-winning games that will follow it.
Throughout its evolution, the world of board games has been able to reinvent itself to celebrate more than 30 years of golden aces and Spiel des Jahres.
Children, beginners, insiders or experts, the world of board games has not finished surprising us.

Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of the JJV Offs!
Unforgettable moments around board games!
I have the chance to work in a fun and attractive field all year round.
The hardest times are when I sacrifice myself to discover new games so that I can introduce you to them and share them with you afterwards.
Being forced to play to discover new games while having fun with friends and colleagues, it does not look like it but it is exhausting. ;)
Friends, colleagues of the moment during special events, I evolve in an environment where people are all a little crazy like me (you have to to play all these magnificent games ^^).
From one-off moments to moments that recur every year with fad teams, I am overwhelmed.
Great fun teams who are committed to spreading the fun world of board games everywhere we go.
Be careful, toy librarians and gamers of all kinds are on their way to torture you and make you discover fun nuggets throughout the year in France and elsewhere;)

Hello everyone ! Today we are going to talk about Dragomino!
Dragomino is an exploratory game of dominoes lasting about 15 minutes for 2 to 4 players.
The big moment has arrived. You have been named "dragon trainer", and you have the chance to meet them on a mysterious island.
But you are not the only trainer sent to these lands. Who among you will discover the most baby dragons?
Dragomino features gameplay similar to Kingdomino, but with gameplay geared towards younger players.
At the start of a turn, you reveal four domino tiles, with each domino featuring two types of landscapes.
Starting with whoever has the mama dragon figurine, players draw a tile and add it to their landscape.
If the newly placed tile matches the landscape of one or more adjacent tiles, then you draw an egg tile for that type of landscape and place it face up where those tiles meet.
Some eggs feature a baby dragon, which is worth 1 point; others feature an empty shell, which allows you to take the mama dragon, giving you first choice on the next turn.
After seven rounds, the game ends and the player holding the mother dragon scores 1 extra point.

Welcome to a new opus of the JJV Offs!
Share a passion to make it even more alive!
The store is called Joue le Jeu Vaison, and it is not by chance.
All year round, I try to play the game and offer you fair prices.
Excluding the increase in distributors, the price of games does not vary depending on the time of year when you come to buy them at the store.
But Joue le Jeu is not only for the sale of board games.
I'm glad that the game animations are back, especially after the covid, and that you're still so motivated to play.
Having a passion is already great, but sharing it is the ultimate consecration for me.
Making you discover games from large and small distributors, sharing moments around board games with you, it's a daily gift.
It makes it a little more concrete and makes it more alive, because these are unique moments and time that you give me.
Thank you for believing and for continuing to believe in my board game animation project.
Don't change, you are all magnificent as you are and our shared moments will always remain anchored in me.

Hello everyone ! Today we are going to talk about Azul!
Azul is a 30-40 minute tiling strategy game for 2-4 players.
Each player will take turns taking tiles and placing them on their pattern lines. He must take all the tiles of the same color from a single factory, or take all the tiles of the same color from the center of the table. Once the player has taken the tiles, he must immediately place them on one of his pattern lines by placing them from right to left. In the same line, only tiles of the same color can appear, and this color must not yet have been placed in this line.
When all the tiles in a line are placed, the line is considered complete. If you have captured more tiles than you had spaces, then you must place the excess in your floor line (bottom), which will inflict a penalty on you at the end of the round. Each time a player takes tiles from a factory, they must take the rest of the tiles from that factory that they did not take and place them in the center of the table. After a while, the pile in the center can be large and even dangerous, as you can be forced to take many penalties.
You are obliged to take at least one tile on each of your turns. In this phase, each player looks at their pattern lines and for each one that is complete, they can take a tile from that line and place it on the space of the corresponding color (in the same line, follow the arrow). The rest of the tiles are returned to the box.
For each tile that is placed on your wall this turn, starting with the top one and going down, we will then see if it forms a horizontal line with the others. If this is the case, a number of points equal to the size of this line is scored. Same thing for a vertical line. The two can thus be combined, but only if the tile placed this turn is part of the line. If your tile is alone, you only score one point for that tile. Score your points using the black cube on your score track.
Finally, subtract the number of points indicated for each tile in the floor line. The number of penalty points increases over time, so the more you have in the same round, the higher the penalty will be (it starts at -1 and ends at -3 per space). Fortunately, it is impossible to go beyond 7 penalty tiles, which is still -14. Once the penalty has been deducted from your score, discard all the floor line tiles and don't forget to put the first player pawn back in the middle of the factories.
If a player has completed at least one horizontal line, then the game ends and the final scoring proceeds. If no player has completed a horizontal line, then the game continues, we put 4 tiles back on each factory. Once the game is over, for each line completed, each player scores 2 additional points.
For each completed column, 7 points. And finally, if a player has 5 identical tiles in his wall, he scores 10 points for each group of 5 tiles of identical color.
The winner is the one who has scored the most points!
Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !
In 1991, the Cannes International Games Festival did not take place.
The edition was postponed due to the Gulf War.
So you won't see a golden ace or game of the year in 1991, because there simply weren't any for obvious security reasons.
This did not prevent the world of games from renewing itself the following year and becoming more and more creative by offering, for example, interactive board games such as Atmosfear.
Also a lot of titles such as junior or youngest golden ace, board game golden ace, joker golden ace, etc.
Prizes that were precise in their selection and which have disappeared over time to become more restricted titles and make the gaming world even more relevant and professional over time.
Good day and good game ;)

In JJV's Offs
Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of the JJV Offs!
Play to create links between players!
The game creates a link between players by encouraging them to share common rules, but always different strategies.
By sharing a game and teasing or cooperating with other players during games, we get to know each other a little better.
We discover the fine strategists, the players who cooperate to beat other players, the players who play it solo.
The game creates a closeness between the players, because it allows them to get to know each other in a framework that is common to them.
Many of my players during animation times have discovered commonalities, in addition to board games, with others.
I am thinking, for example, of this shy child who did not dare to play with other children, because she was afraid of “being ridiculous” because she had not played board games much before.
So I took the time to play with her a little to begin with, then little by little, she managed to talk to the other children and play with them without me being present around the play table.
At the end of the animation time, she had made new friends and was happy to have managed to play with the others, she had even won a few games.
As you can see, young or old, we can always find something to gather around board games.
Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !
Today we are going to talk about Qwirkle!
Qwirkle is an approximately 45 minute tile game for 2-4 players.
Qwirkle's abstract game consists of 108 wooden blocks with six different shapes in six different colors.
There is no board, players simply use any available flat surface.
Players start the game with six blocks.
The first player places blocks of a single matching attribute (color or shape but not both) on the table.
Then a player adds adjacent blocks to at least one previously played block.
The blocks must all be played online and match, without duplicates, the color or shape of the previous block.
Players score one point for each block played plus all adjacent blocks.
It is possible for a block to mark in more than one direction.
If a player completes a line containing all six shapes or colors, six additional points are scored.
The player then reloads their hand to six blocks.
The game ends when the draw bag is exhausted and a player plays all of their remaining blocks, earning a six point bonus.
The player with the highest score wins.
Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !
In 1991, the Saint-Herblain festival appeared, from which the Double 6 was born!
The town of Saint-Herblain, near Nantes, has two toy libraries, and spaces dedicated to games in two media libraries.
It has a gaming policy and has organized a gaming festival since 1991.
Since 2004, the Games Festival which takes place in February lasts 15 days, awards a Public Prize rewarding the family game having received the best votes from a non-professional jury and the public.
In 2012, the Public Prize changed its name to Double 6. It happens that by confusion the Saint-Herblain Games Festival is also called “Double 6” but this is a mistake.
Half of the score is awarded by a jury made up of motivated players, excluding all gaming professionals.
The other half of the score is awarded by the families who discover the games and their rules without any outside help (no explanation by a facilitator: the game must be self-sufficient), in places spread over several points department games.
The rating by the public is based on three criteria: the understandability of the rules, with a rating out of 5 (out of 10 since 2022); the aesthetics of the game hardware, and the game hardware itself, with a rating out of 10; gaming pleasure, with a score out of 15 (out of 20 since 2022).
In chronological order since 2004, we will find the games, Maka Bana, Saboteur, Lost objects, Siam, Le Trésor des Mayas, Wazabi, Dice Town, Boomerang, Takenoko, Noé, The little prince, Abyss, 7 wonders duel, Kingdomino , Twin It, Fertility, Draftosaurus, Top Ten and in 2022 Mot Malin.

In JJV's Offs
Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of the JJV Offs!
Play to help build self-confidence!
Playing allows you to discover yourself and develop your self-confidence.
We discover through the game that we can develop various strategies according to our choices and the games we play.
You then learn to trust yourself by trying something new with the framework of the rules of the game.
Everyone advances according to the same rules, which makes it possible to develop tools at their own pace.
I remember this 85-year-old player who was afraid of being lost while playing with her children and grandchildren, because they were more used to playing board games than she was.
We started every day with games based on classic games she had already played and now she plays the game of discovering new games every time.
She succeeded, by gaining self-confidence, in developing her curiosity and enthusiasm for games.
Now, she is no longer afraid to test new animation games and she even often asks her children and grandchildren to play together when they get together as a family outside animation times.
The board game allows you to have an equal footing with all players and to dare to develop game strategies from the simplest to the most complicated.
The board game is an engine of moments shared together, because we listen to the other players to progress in the game.

Today we are going to talk about Dixit!
Dixit is a cooperative game of about 30 minutes for 3 to 8 players.
A player is the storyteller of the round and looks at the pictures on the 6 cards in his hand. From one of them, she composes a sentence and pronounces it aloud (without showing the card to the other players).
Each other player selects the card in their hand that best matches the phrase and gives the selected card to the storyteller, without showing it to the others.
The storyteller shuffles her card with all the cards received.
All images are shown face up and each player must bet which image was the storyteller's.
If no one or everyone finds the correct card, the storyteller scores 0 and each of the other players scores 2.
Otherwise, the storyteller and whoever found the correct answer score 3.
Players score 1 point for each vote for their own card.
The game ends when the draw pile is empty or if a player scores 30 points.
In both cases, the player with the most points wins the game.
The base game and all expansions have 84 cards each.

In 2016, the Grand Prix and the Jury Prize disappear as the expert golden ace makes its entrance.
The “expert golden ace prize” was then won by Pandemic Legacy, the child golden ace by Maitre Renard and the golden ace, game of the year by Mysterium.
The expert gold ace rewards games for an audience accustomed to more complex game rules and mechanisms.
Among these “expert golden aces”, we find for example games such as Scythe, Terraforming Mars, Detective, Res Arcana, The Crew or even Dune Imperium in 2022.
This golden ace further professionalizes the gaming world, which continues to progress and always offers more novelties and new game concepts.
Even outside of the golden aces, game creators always have a good idea running through their heads, we are not done being surprised. ;)

In JJV's Offs
Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of the JJV Offs!
Playing is sharing with others!
Playing a board game is always a moment that brings us all together around a table regardless of the type of game we play.
This is an opportunity to share a good time with the people you appreciate the most.
Ambient games, cards, dice, roles, board games bring us together and allow us to share a privileged moment with other players.
Much more than a game, it is a moment of sharing that we offer ourselves and our loved ones, sometimes discovering that they can be bad losers or bad winners.
The great thing about board games is that there are so many varieties of games that one can explore different themes and mechanics at any time.
For example, I am quite bad at immediate memory games, but I make up for it with strategy or logic games that I particularly enjoy.
For 10 minutes or 10 hours of play (or more, huh, it's not forbidden ;) ), the game allows a unique and timeless moment.
A time that we devote to ourselves and to others.
Because yes, playing is also opening up to others.
Good day and good game ;)
