Hello everyone !

Welcome to a new opus from the JJV Offs!

 Animator one day, always animator!

Because the passion for the game is shared and animation contributes to this sharing.

Animation is a profession in its own right that cannot be improvised, I will let my players speak for me;)

-Animations for children / teenagers:

"Me, I like the games that you make us discover when things are going super too fast ..." Oscar, 5 years old.

 "Board games with you are so cool, actually! Maddie, 15 years old.

 - Family / adult entertainment:

“Frankly, we had a lot of fun. Top host, as always! " With family.

"He's a master of the game who gets us very deep in the story! " Between friends.

- Intergenerational activities and very old children :):

"- Ah Granny J, she found it before me…! Did you train or what?

- And yes, I learned from Cindy "

- Too strong Granny J »

Léa, 8 years old and Granny J, 78 years old.

"I thought I didn't like board games, find out I love it. Thank you to you »Mrs S.

 It just goes to show that when you do things with your heart, you always achieve your goal ...

Mine in animation: sharing and bringing to life beautiful playful moments.

Animator one day, always animator :)

Hello everyone ! 

Today we're going to talk about Te Kuiti! 

Te Kuiti is a game for two that invites us to take on either the role of the shepherd who only seeks to close his enclosure to keep his sheep and the latter who only dream of one thing to escape and regroup.  

The game keeps its promise, the 2 roles are very different and each must find its own solution but via a different mechanic. 

The shepherd must put up fences while the sheep must find its fellows through a small memory game. 

The asymmetry of the 2 mechanics works well even if we often feel that the sheep is easier to play. 

Indeed, it is a memory game where you have to find pairs of sheep but under the pressure of the shepherd who risks locking up your sheep who will no longer be accessible.

  The voltage is working fine.

  It is easy to get caught up in the game.

 There is a small dose of chance in the head of the sheep who can discover a pair by pure luck.

  Just like, chance will dictate whether or not he discovers the special tiles that benefit both players.  

Te Kuiti is a sympathetic game to play for two because it offers fast games and sufficiently tense to find pleasure. 

Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone ! 

Today we're going to talk about Rituals! 

Rituals is a card-based story-building game that you and up to five other players can start playing in minutes. 

Choose your worship and ritual, then use the invitation cards to collaboratively tell a story of love, betrayal, doubt and devotion. 

 The rituals will take you through the lands of cultists trying to summon a creature capable of destroying the entire universe.

 But will all participants follow this plan until the end? The game offers 8 cults and 8 rituals.

 The guest cards are divided into 2 decks: Act I (Why did the characters join the cult, what are their hopes and dreams?) And Act II (What are those nightmares that increasingly disturb your sleep as the Ritual day is getting closer? Are your teammates trustworthy? Are you really on the safe side?). 

A Final Act in a black envelope will have you secretly vote for success or failure of the Ritual.

 The term "arachnid" would take its root in a Greek myth. 

In Greek mythology, Arachne was a young woman who excelled in weaving.  

The goddess Athena visited her in the form of an old woman. 

Jealous of Arachne's fame, she faced her in a weaving contest. 

Exasperated by the thoroughness of her rival's canvas, Athena tore it to pieces, which despaired Arachne, who committed suicide. 

However, the goddess decided to give her a second life by transforming her into a spider hanging from her web, so that she could weave.

 She's from elsewhere ! ^^

I don't have to justify myself, but I will do it anyway because at the time these remarks hurt me deeply and if my example can be used, so be it :)

"She takes the room and the work of someone from the area":

  1. The room is mine (yes, I am the owner ^^)
  2. My post did not exist before I created it ^^

 Strange logic, moreover, during the COVID period which means that: 

"Yes, but it's your place, you don't pay rent"

 And if, missed ^^. No one is forbidding anyone to buy their premises, eh instead of paying rent ^^ A good hearer :) 

And :

 "It is easier for you to click and collect, you already have a site" 

At the same time, I trained myself to have my site, it didn't happen by snapping my fingers, eh ... ^^

   Or : 

"That's it, are you going back to your home in the northwest?" The banker who took overdraft fees without overdrafts ...

" No, it's my accounts that go back there, I stay with my husband, here, at home. 

And to finish in style: 

"Anyway we can insult her, she is not from the south"

Well yes, let's go cheerfully ... ^^ 

No matter what you are told, if you have a plan, don't listen to unwarranted remarks. 

By saving your time and energy by ignoring these people, you will have a lot more to offer to the people who deserve it ...

Hello everyone !

Today we're going to talk about Blue Moon!

The once proud and strong Blue Moon City has been plunged into chaos.

The golden dragon fell, the sacred Psy crystal shattered, and the old king breathed his last. Worse yet, Blue Moon, the creator of all things, has disappeared and Blue Moon City finds itself without a ruler.

Now, the three elemental dragons - the only remaining divine creatures in the world - guard the shards of the crystal.

 The two royal heirs, Prince Roland and Princess Elinor, are vying for the crown.

The people of Blue Moon City may not know who to follow, but whoever can rally them and claim the throne will gain the power to restore Psi's sacred crystal and possibly convince Blue Moon himself to return.

Prepare to fight for the throne and restore peace to the city in Blue Moon Legends, a collected version of Blue Moon, Reiner Knizia's classic card game for two players!

In Blue Moon Legends, you will gather the allegiance of one of the peoples of Blue Moon City and then lead them in a series of fights against another people.

 By winning these fights, you aim to gain the inconstant attention of the elemental dragons and earn your way to the city throne.

 Players can either play the game directly with decks or strategically customize the perfect deck to defeat their opponent.

 With hundreds of maps to choose from, no game will be the same.

 Blue Moon Legends contains all cards from award winning designer Reiner Knizia's Blue Moon card game in one box.

The Pactolus is the river in which King Midas washed his hands to end his curse.

The god Dionysus granted a wish to King Midas, who wished that everything he touches would turn to gold.

A poisoned gift since the latter found himself unable to eat and drink.  In order to put an end to this curse, he washed his hands in the waters of the Pactole.

That’s why someone who makes a lot of money is said to have made the jackpot.

Ali Baba's cave!

Customer "He doesn't look like it  outside your store"

Me "I know, I am like at the bottom of my cave", I say, smiling warmly. To which she responds:

 "Not a cave, Ali Baba's cave, you have lots of beautiful things."

And then another client, at the same time, who said to me: "This is Ali Baba's cave here, you have lots of beautiful nuggets! ".

Teenagers who came to get a board game for a friend:

 "You have lots of cool games here, some you don't see elsewhere."

I thank them and listen to them to better inform them.

Before leaving, they tell me:

"Thank you for your kindness and your advice and especially thank you for listening to us, that does not always happen".

 Listening to the customer is essential, otherwise how can we advise him on the game that suits him or that he wishes to offer?

 I especially appreciate it when my clients come back and enjoy the game I recommended and are delighted "with your advice and your kindness."

Hello everyone !

Today we're going to talk about Thief's Fortune!

 Nabbarah: A city full of wonders and stories to tell - a sparkling gem in the middle of the desert.

  You are a thief, always on the lookout for the next target to hit.

You decide to sneak into the Royal Palace, enter its treasure room and search for the mythical treasures that are hidden there.

 Among piles of gold, emeralds and precious jewels, you come across a chest containing a mysterious hourglass. As soon as you touch it, you are filled with mystical energy and realize its true power: you are now able to glimpse your own future.

By adopting different plans of action, different paths unfold before you, allowing you to shape your future as you see fit. Unfortunately, everyone in the palace is now after you ...

Thief's Fortune is a card game for 1 to 4 players in which each player represents a different possible future for the same character.

By visiting different locations, interacting with local characters, and making sure that certain events you've seen actually happen, you try to find the path that will get you as far out of danger as possible.

 In more detail, the players each have three areas in front of them: the past, the present and the future.

Over the course of five turns, players draw up location, event, and character cards, adding them to their personal "future" zone with resources on those cards.

 Players extract resources from these cards, and when empty, the cards move into the player's present, after which the player can activate the power on these cards to score the fortune points they need to earn the part.

Welcome to a new opus from the JJV Offs!

Take it or leave it !

A man one day comes with bags full of board games to the store.

 Although I specify to him that I do not resume the games, he wishes to show them to me "in case you change your mind because there are some for 300 euros in there", he said to me, pointing his finger to his bags of games ...

 To please him, I walk over and look at the games he offers, reminding him that I won't be taking any back anyway, but I'm curious about board games.

So I see that he has some collector games that I had only had the opportunity to see in photos before. Unfortunately his games are in very poor condition, even good for the trash ...

I kindly tell him that he has collectors' games, but given their conditions they're not worth much. What he replies to me:

"If it's a question of price, I can offer you something" he told me with a tense smile before adding "I'm nice, I help you ... I suggest you buy them back 150 euros and give me a voucher of 150 euros to buy games from you ”.

I then confirm to him that it will not be possible and he says to me:

 "Too bad, if you don't see the golden opportunities, it's a shame for you" by putting away his games and leaving unhappy.

Bad luck for mister, I don't just sell board games, I am also a collector and therefore I know a lot of games, even the oldest ones…

For me it will not be to take, but to leave ...

The Champs Elysée is not just a beautiful avenue!

 In Greek mythology, the Underworld is Hades, of all the dead.

The blessed go to the Champs Élysées, the guilty go to Tartarus, while souls deemed neither good nor bad go to Erebus.

 It is the god Hermes who guides the soul of the deceased towards the Underworld, the underground kingdom of the god Hades and his wife Persephone.

The Champs Élysées form the happy abode of virtuous souls.

They are presented as a paradisiacal garden where there is an eternal spring. 

The lucky ones savor an eternal youth there in the shade of flower beds sprinkled by the waters of Léthé.

Stretched out on beds of asphodels, the heroes are content with each other's exploits and listen to the poets celebrate their merit.

 Welcome to a new opus from the JJV Offs!

 I heard it said!

One day a shopkeeper from a family of traders who have been in Vaison for 134 years now came to see me.

When she came to offer me the opportunity to pick up the premises of an old store in the city, she said this to me:

"You have a very nice store with a very good reputation in the town, that's why I'm here".

 I thank her timidly and she adds "His reputation precedes him and he is very dynamic".

We chat then and the subject of backbiting arrives. She then gave me a wise piece of advice that I try to follow on a daily basis:

“You have to shield yourself and ignore. But I'm not worried about you, you have the build and shoulders of a boss. "

 Shortly afterwards the wife and daughter of a former store owner came to see me.

They told me it was too bad I didn't take the follow-up.

They told me they understood that I preferred to remain independent so that I could offer more varieties to customers ...

Then comes the moment when a former animation partner recommends you to organizations because "their animations are top notch."

It just goes to show that when you do things with your heart and passion, that changes everything. :)

Hello everyone !

Today we are going to talk about Marrakech!

The carpet market on the Place de Marrakech is on the move: we will soon appoint the most skilful of merchants.

Each of them will try to have the most of their rugs on display while accumulating the greatest fortune.

  In turn, the player decides in which direction he will direct the Assam figurine, the organizer of the sale. 

Then he rolls the dice and moves the pawn exactly by the number indicated.

If it ends up on an empty square or on one containing a carpet of its color, nothing happens.

 On the other hand, if the carpet belongs to an opposing player, a tithe must be paid corresponding to the number of squares covered, adjacent and of the same color, by the area where Assam ended his movement. 

 Next, the player places a mat on the game board next to the square on which Assam has finished moving.

 It is possible to partially cover an opponent's carpet, but it is forbidden to cover an opponent's carpet entirely with one of his or her carpet at one time.

The game ends when the players have laid all the all-mats. Each dirham and each visible square with rugs of its color are worth one point. The strongest total wins.

Hello everyone !

The flood

The myth of Noah's Ark was actually inspired by a Mesopotamian saga dating back to the 7th century BC: the Epic of Gilgamesh.

In it, many gods plan to destroy the world.

Ea is one of them, and asks a man named Utu-napishtim to build a boat and take his family and a host of animals there in order to survive the cataclysm.

A legend that is once again inspired by very real events.

 According to many geologists, the Black Sea gradually dried up and turned into a freshwater lake below sea level as a result of an ice age that began 11,500 years ago.

When sea level rose as a result of the melting ice, the Mediterranean passed the threshold of the Bosporus and flowed into the Black Sea, causing its level to rise 150 meters in two years: a deluge that inundated more of 100,000 km² of land and pushed the local populations into exile.

Others become queen-sized dance halls with a frenzied floss in front of the window or a Parkinsonian twerk against the door ^^

Some people share their learning of animal sounds in dolby surround with you. ^^

A lucky charm placed in front of the door which spreads good luck to you in the store ... ^^

Donations of unexpected objects with, I suppose, good intentions on or around the panel: chewing gum, spit, dog needs, cat litter ...

And the winner is ... "I crashed the computer on purpose, so that'll keep you busy ...".

Yes, yes, we went to familiarity without even knowing each other ^^

Uses and customs that I did not know ... ^^

You know, there will always be people to make you understand that you are too many ...

But, you are never "too much" or "not enough".

Most importantly, don't let bad people trick you into believing that being a good person is a weakness.

Your kindness demands a strength from them that exceeds them;)

You are you, with your strengths and weaknesses, and this is what makes you both unique and beautiful.

Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !

Today we're going to talk about Kontour!

 1 concept, 15 lines, 30 seconds!

Players will try to get others to guess a word, but be careful: they only have 30 seconds and 15 strokes to do so!

Use your imagination and a spirit of simplification to achieve victory.

At the start of each round, choose a word on a card.

They will earn you 1 to 2 points depending on the difficulty of the chosen word.

Have other players guess your word in a maximum of 15 strokes and 30 seconds.

 The first player to find your word earns you up to 2 points and himself earns 1 point.

As soon as your word is found, another person guesses a word.

The game ends as soon as a player reaches 10 points.

Little tip Joue le Jeu Vaison :

 Play as a duo or as a team to try to earn together the 10 points required to win the game, it's even more fun, competitive and quite dynamic.

The thunderbird and the whale

Another Native American legend tells of a thunderbird, a supernatural and benevolent being, diving into the ocean to seize a terrible whale that deprived the Quileute tribe of precious resources. 

During this merciless struggle, powerful waves are generated, and many people are killed. 

The thunderbird eventually manages to grab the whale and throws it onto the mainland, causing a powerful earthquake.

During the 1980s, geologists discovered that a powerful earthquake struck the Pacific Northwest in the 17th century, causing a terrible tsunami that reached Japan and the American coasts where the tribe lived.

The thunderbird is said to have been inspired by the Aiornis, a giant raptor (5 meters wingspan) that lived in North America in the Pliocene.

Fall back into childhood

 An elderly lady walks past the showcase and stares at it for a while before coming in and coming to see me.

She said to me: "Your showcase is very pretty" with a warm smile.

I thank her timidly. She then adds:

"It must please children of all ages, because it made me fall back into childhood," she adds, delighted.

"Thank you very much Madam," I told her, pleased with her compliment. To which she replied: "No, thank you".

We chat a little more, then she ends up leaving a dreamy and nostalgic smile on her lips.

Hello everyone !

Today we're going to talk about Not Even Afraid!

The hour is serious in the sad kingdom of the good king Dagobert.

A horde of frightening monsters terrorizes the population. T

he king immediately summons his knights and organizes a tournament: the heroes who win the battles will be sent to face witches, gargoyles and other giants. 

Very few will emerge victorious from these clashes. But in case of victory, they will find in the treasure of monsters, weapons and magical armor.

They will be very useful for them to finally defeat the terrible dragon!  The battle adapted to cooperative play. If the players don't cooperate, watch out for the monsters!

 They will undoubtedly have the last word!  Here we all win together or we all lose together.

The knights have only one goal: to save the kingdom.

  Yet only one of them will know the glory of defeating the dragon ...

An adaptation of the famous battle game that will be of interest to the whole family, while learning about cooperation, risk management and the use of simple additions.

 With its nice graphics and its world of knights, "Not Even Afraid" is an excellent title to play cooperatively with the family from 5/6 years old. 

It gently introduces children to tactical choices and risk taking.

The myth of Atlantis

The myth of Atlantis is probably one of the most famous in the history of mankind.

Described for the first time by the Greek philosopher Plato, it tells the story of a prosperous and conquering civilization living on the island of Atlantis, which ends up engulfed by the waves in a cataclysm brought on by Zeus.

According to many archaeologists, this legend actually describes the fall of the Minoan Empire.

 Around 3,650 years ago, a powerful volcanic eruption rocked the island of Santorini, then called Thera.

The magma chamber emptied so quickly that the center of the island literally collapsed, triggering a tsunami that struck the ridge and engulfed much of Thera underwater.

This incident obviously marked the abrupt end of the Minoan Empire.

Hello everyone!

 Welcome to a new opus from the JJV Offs!

Damn, bad luck!

It seems that the first year of the store, I was chasing bad luck ...

After discovering that I was closing for good two months after opening, bad luck still followed me ...

Damn, then! ^^

According to another shopkeeper my local would lead bad luck to all those who would have worked there and would have ended up:

-lose their business

 -separate from their spouse

 - bring them bad luck.

It is clear that after 3 and a half years of occupation, I have not reported any such facts ...

I have passed the fateful moment of one year of bad luck of the premises it seems ^^

Phew! Here I am reassured ^^

Whatever, not necessarily ...

Then came the bad luck of the newspaper ...

But what is it, then ?

 This is a lady who sees a newspaper article on the store and tells me this:

"I don’t want to scare you, but I had a business and when I got into the newspaper it went down shortly after."

 I just said "Well look, we'll see".

After several successive articles in the press, it seems that I am not touched by the bad luck of the newspaper either… ^^

Believe in your projects, because they will always be your best outcome.

 Even if they fail in the end, you won't start over from scratch but with experience.

Geothermal energy on the island allows you to grow the most unexpected fruits and vegetables - a quirk no tourist would want to miss.

 However, you aren't the only Reykholt farmer wanting to make a fortune, so hurry!

The tourist season in Reykholt is short and it gets more crowded every year. 

Appealing to the right people and having the right veg at the right time in Reykholt will give you the edge you need to win the race!

The guest star

Around the year 1006, astronomers around the world spotted a "guest star" in the sky.

 In the Kitab al-Shifa (Book of Healing), the Persian scholar Ibn Sina specifies that the star was visible for months and constantly changed color, before disappearing in a shower of sparks.

 If scientists have long thought that the star in question was a comet, it was actually a supernova.

The latter occurred 7,200 years ago, but its radiation did not reach Earth until the beginning of the first millennium.

The color changes precisely described by Sina are due to the merger of two white dwarfs.

This is obviously the first historical testimony of such a phenomenon.

Welcome to a new opus from the JJV Offs!

Everything becomes clearer

Throughout the preparation for the creation of the store, there were ups and downs ...

The support of the CCI was decisive in my business creation project and I cannot thank them enough for that.

During a CCI workshop for business creation support and advice, we had to present our project in two minutes flat.

 I presented the creation of the board game store as a project to bring people together.

I saw the game animations as a moment of initiation and sharing of playful moments.

 And as a convenience store, useful services to take over from certain services that were to come to an end.

Claire, the CCI advisor, congratulated my project and welcomed my promises of pre-opening.

I can say with pride that I stuck to my goals and promises of four years ago.

 The female success trophy came to congratulate my flexibility during the crisis with the agility trophy and special congratulations from the members of the jury for my nominations in the agility, digital, originality and benevolence categories.

The smile that touched me the most that day during my acceptance speech was that of Claire from the CCI and her adorable phrase "promises kept"

Today we're going to talk about Jack and the Beanstalk!

History, do you know it?

 The story therefore tells us about Jack who, on a market day, exchanges his cow for so-called magic beans.

These beans would grow up to the sky and make it possible to ascend into the heavens.

In fact, Jack plants them and climbs his beans up to the clouds! It was there that he came across a castle, the home of a sinister giant eater of fresh flesh ...

 Risking his life, Jack manages to steal multiple riches from the giant! Until the day when the giant surprises him and sets out in pursuit ...

 Jack has just enough time to descend along the bean before it is cut and once again blocks the giant creature in his sinister castle.

Throughout the game we will therefore grow the magic bean to try to recover as many treasures as possible. This bean is in fact a stack of dice that must not be dropped.

If by any chance someone arrives at the end of the bean to the giant's castle, bonus treasures will be awarded to them. At the start of the round, each player chooses one of the 7 cards he has in his hand.

This card imposes a number of dice on him that he will have to roll and place on the bean. It also has a value which will determine the order of play: the player who chooses the card with the lowest value begins and so on.

When it's my turn, I roll the number of dice corresponding to my card. These dice appear with symbols that must be resolved before placing the dice on the bean.

There are four symbols: the dice symbol which allows me (or not, it's up to you) to roll an additional dice.

 The trunk symbol which obliges me to place a trunk in the bean at the same time as the die.

 The treasure symbol that allows me to put a small purse of my color between the dice that I place in the bean. If the bean is still in balance at the end of my stroke, then I will gain treasures.

And finally, the giant eye symbol: having one in your throw is of no consequence.

From two, I wake up the giant and lose all the effects of my other dice. If a player drops the magic bean while placing his dice, he wins treasures for players who have placed purses in the bean.

And obviously does not win anything himself ... On the other hand, if a player must put a trunk and there is none left, or if a player has just placed the last available die, he can now seize the castle and try to place it in his turn. ..

 If he holds, then he gains treasures. The bean is then dismantled and we restart from zero.

Hello everyone !

Sri Lanka's Ape-Men Army

In Ramayana, a Sanskrit Indian epic, Sita, the wife of the god Rama, is kidnapped and held on the island of Lanka, which represents the kingdom of demons.

Accompanied by an army of ape-men, his brother Lakshmana built a floating bridge (the famous Rama Bridge) between India and the island of Lanka, and succeeded in defeating Ravana, the demon king.

If this legend is filled with fanciful details, the famous bridge it mentions did indeed exist.

Satellite surveys show a stretch of 48 kilometers long, made up of limestone and sand banks, and located a few meters below the water's surface.

This bridge connecting India to the island of Lanka was probably swallowed up after a terrible cyclone ravaged the region in the 15th century.
