JJV's Offs

On 29/09/2024

Hello everyone !

Welcome to a new opus of “JJV Offs”!

“Prudence does not prevent all misfortunes, but lack of prudence never fails to attract them. »

With the covid crisis we have all seen our situations weakened…

It was then necessary to develop other strategies to continue to keep businesses running.

Within the store, as soon as we knew that by disinfecting we could continue to sell even online and by takeaway, I immediately relaunched sales on the site by following the necessary actions for the safety of my customers and Click and Collect for my customers in Vaison and the surrounding area.

At the same time, to continue to offer you supports and continue this link around the games that we have, I have increased the publications on social networks.

I couldn't see myself waiting for time to pass and seeing if the store would hold up if I sat idly by waiting for the crisis to pass.

So I took matters into my own hands by offering you advice by telephone, email and social networks to find the fun nuggets which I hope will help bring you some happy moments with family and friends.

After a normal games festival in 2020, we had to adapt to this crisis and its consequences on our everyday lives.

Games were “non-essential”, like many other areas, and the empty store all day is what weighed on me the most during this crisis regarding my store…

I was very happy to be able to find you, even masked, at the store and at outdoor events.

Moreover, covid has made outdoor events much more attractive than in-store events. It’s completely understandable after what we’ve been through…

I had carefully planned what I needed to survive the crisis, which allowed me to cope and continue to share my passion for board games with you.

And then, I was lucky (and I still am) to have a golden clientele like you, who continued and continues to believe in my store.

So thank you all!

Good day and good game ;)

2 words game 20th century

2 words game 20th century

On 27/09/2024

Hello everyone!

Today we are going to talk about the 20th century!

In the 20th century, develop your country, from 3 to 5 players for 90 minutes from 12 years old, to be the most prosperous country!

The urbanization of your country is up to you

A game includes six turns during which you oversee the urbanization of your country.

Some territories produce income, others scientific research, still others improve the quality of life.

Research allows you to discover new technologies that will shape the way your country develops.

Science can also help you avoid ecological disasters.

At the end of each round, your territories produce the money and research you will need to complete the challenges of the next round.

You accumulate victory points each round based on your country's quality of life.

At the end of the second and fourth rounds, you also earn additional points based on certain aspects of your country's development.

At the end of the sixth round, you score additional points based on your country's income, research, and environmental value.

A game consists of five full rounds and an abbreviated sixth round. Each round has six phases:

• Set up

• Territory Auction (and Technology Purchase)

• Disaster Prevention

• Consolidation (and Use of Technology)

• Production (and Recycling)

• Obtaining Bonuses (after rounds two, four and six)

Rounds one, three and five have no phase

of Obtaining Bonuses (even if it is always possible to

score victory points during Production).

The sixth round is abbreviated, it consists only of Consolidation, Production and the ultimate Obtaining of Bonuses.

The player with the most victory points wins since he will have built the country with the highest level of well-being.

Lake Bled

Lake Bled is a lake of glacial origin in Slovenia.

Located in the Upper Carniola region 55 kilometers northwest of the center of the capital Ljubljana, on the eastern edge of the Julian Alps.

The lake lies at the foot of the Pokljuka plateau near the outlet of the Bohinj valley, at an altitude of 475 meters.

Its banks are extensively developed: it is bordered to the east by the health resort of Bled, and its medieval castle (11th century) which dominates the lake at the top of a 130 meter cliff.

The lake is small, 2,120 meters long by 1,380 meters wide at most, for an area of ​​145 hectares.

The water temperature is mild, averaging 25°C in summer. With a maximum depth of 30 meters, it encircles the country's only island, the island of Bled.

Typical boats (pletne) which look like gondolas allow you to reach the islet.

The lake has been the scene of world rowing championships on several occasions (1966, 1979, 1989 and 2011).

Hello everyone !

Welcome to a new opus of “JJV Offs”!

“He who goes slowly, goes surely, and he who goes surely, goes far.”

I have always taken the time to quietly think about what I offer you on a daily basis, both for games, activities and services.

That's why I like to celebrate the store's birthdays every year for the last 6 years with you in the store and in events.

I can indeed question myself about the past year and ask what new ideas I can offer you for the following year.

And then seeing where we started from to progress a little more each year, I find that stimulating.

I like to search and find new things to offer you, simply because I always try to do better than what I have been able to do before.

I like to move at my own pace and try to offer you things that sometimes work and sometimes don't, the most important thing is to see what allows you to progress, successful or not...

I plan to continue looking for ways to offer you new things every year, because I love sharing my passion for gaming with you.

Good day and good game ;)

2 words game Golden Age

2 words game Golden age

On 20/09/2024

Hello everyone !

Today we are going to talk about the Golden Age!

In Siècle d’or, investors from the Netherlands, 3 to 4 players for 60 minutes from 10 years old, fruitful developments are yours!

In Golden Age, we play merchant explorers from the Netherlands who seek to get rich by developing its different regions.

The theme of this game is the economic and cultural development of the Netherlands in the 17th century.

The game is played on a large game board in the Netherlands, divided into provinces.

Additionally, there are spaces for the West Indies and the East, and a track all around the board with the majority of spaces listing two of the ten provinces (in various combinations) which earn players varying income depending on their influences in these provinces, or income spaces which provide players with a fixed income.

The players' goal is to be the first player to gain 33 victory points, which are acquired by earning money to expand their influence in the provinces, frequent artists, invest in businesses, establish colonies in India or achieve civic progress.

These are represented by purchasing cards from one of six decks, with each deck having a particular objective.

Investment cards allow cash payments, with larger payouts for collecting sets of different values ​​(a single card is worth less than a set of three cards).

Artists provide a potentially large source of victory points, but require several rounds of patronage (i.e. money) before paying out.

Colonization cards provide ships, captains, and cannons to equip expeditions to establish colonies which yield victory points and access to the highest paying spice investment card game.

Civic cards can provide governorships in provinces (victory points and income), civic improvements (victory points), a special action that allows their holder to modify the normal rules to advance a token on the track of the board.

There are cards that also work with certain other decks, in the Civic deck (e.g. Investments, Expedition Components, etc.).

Hello everyone !

Welcome to a new opus of “JJV Offs”!

“To take revenge for an offense is to put oneself on the level of one’s enemy; to forgive him is to put oneself above him. »

Since the time that I have suffered the uncomfortable behavior of certain individuals out of a spirit of “competition”, I believe that my patience and my resilience no longer need to be proven…

When you send your friends to tell you that “what you are selling is crap…. ". Whether they come to the front of the store or allow themselves to insult me ​​in the street of “la c…….” board games”, we don’t really have any moral lessons to give to our “competitor” as you like to call me…

Almost 6 and a half years without flinching in the face of all this, because as I told you in person when you came to ask me in my own store “Could we be united?” ".

I told you that I was not interested in showing solidarity with people who denigrate my store and my values...but that I would not return the favor, because that's simply not me...

However, I forgave you a while ago, because I decided to focus my attention and energy on something more useful and constructive, my store!

I'm talking about this so that you understand once and for all that I will NEVER respond to your baseness, whatever the level...

I hope for you at some point that you will be able to refocus on yourself to appreciate what life has to offer you.

I wish you good sales and lots of good things in your professional and personal lives, but without me...

2 words game Identiquest

2 words game Identiquest

On 13/09/2024

Hello everyone !

Today we’re going to talk about Identiquest!

In Identiquest, who will steal the most precious stones without being unmasked from 3 to 6 players for 15 minutes from 8 years old!

In Identiquest, we are precious stone thieves who must seize them, be unmasked or escape.

We shuffle the precious stone cards and place the draw pile face down in the center of the table, then we spread 5 cards from the face up pile in the center.

We then place the 7 different suspect cards in front of each player with the question mark faces up.

Each player then receives an “identity” card which they look at discreetly and place face down, without showing it to the other players.

The objective of each player will then be to steal the precious stones of the same color as their “identity” card.

Each turn, players have the right to one of two actions, steal gems or accuse a player.

To steal stones, the player takes 2 of the 5 precious stone cards placed in the center of the table and places them in front of him, this will be his loot (he places them on top of those already stolen if he has any).

We then replace the 2 stolen cards with 2 new cards from the pile in the center of the table.

To accuse a player, the player whose turn it is must report him to the police by announcing the color of the “identity” card he thinks the player has.

You must have at least 2 precious stone cards in your loot to be able to accuse another player.

If the accusation does not match the color of the offending player, the question mark card placed in front of the player will be turned over to show a red cross which indicates that the player's "identity" card is not of that color.

The player who accused him will have to give him 2 precious stone cards from his own loot.

If the accusation was justified, the accused player turns his “identity” card face up and all the other players turn their question cards of the color concerned in front of them towards the red cross.

A player is unmasked as soon as he is accused and it is the right color, he must then give 4 precious stone cards to his accuser (or the rest if he has less than 4).

A player escapes as soon as the last question mark card is turned over, he can no longer be accused.

As soon as the player has performed one of these two actions, another player takes their turn and chooses from these two choices.

The game ends when either the precious stone cards are exhausted or all players are unmasked or escaped.

Each player counts the number of precious stones in the color of their “identity” card to know the number of points they have earned.

The player with the most points wins the game.

Lagos Beaches

Lagos, "The Lakes", is a Portuguese city located in the south of the Algarve, at the mouth of the Bensafrim.

Lagos is an old seaport with a history dating back over 2000 years. Its name Lagos derives from the Gallic Lacobriga.

Lagos was first a trading post where the Carthaginians recruited Gallic mercenaries to fight the Romans during the Wars.

It was then colonized by the Romans, and depended on the Roman province of Lusitania.

There are still some Gallo-Roman remains in and around Lagos itself.

It was probably at Lacobriga, near Mount Molião, that the rebel general Sertorius, with the support of Lusitanian auxiliaries, defeated the army of Q. Caecilius Metellus Pius sent to arrest him.

Lacobriga was already a considerable port at that time. In the 6th century, the city was successively governed by the Visigoths from the Kingdom of Toledo then by the Byzantines.

Hello everyone !

Welcome to a new opus of “JJV Offs”!

“Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet. »

If there is one quality of mine that has always been useful to me in life and especially in the store, it is patience...

I wanted at all costs to develop moments around board games with you and not just sell them to you.

The events at the store took off quite quickly and were going pretty well from the start.

I had to be more patient with the outdoor activities which started timidly.

Patience can seem bitter when you are not immediately recognized for the experience you can offer.

But as they say “Rome was not built in a day”, every project is built, needs to mature and develop in order to evolve perpetually.

We put our stones in place one after the other and then we adjust them if they are not ready to build something solid.

And then over time, we reap the sweet fruits of what we sowed and we know why it was worth the wait.

Now, since covid, my outdoor activities are very calm and my outdoor activities are very dynamic.

This is why I chose to introduce games with “Discover Games” to introduce beginners to board games and why not help find new players. ;)

Everyone receives their blessings, there is no point in being jealous or eyeing the good things that other people gain...

What takes time to build often lasts longer than what is hastily built.

2 words game Noli

2 words game Noli

On 06/09/2024

Hello everyone !

Today we are going to talk about Noli!

In Noli, let's build the most powerful seaport with 4 players for 45 minutes to be the best patron!

In Noli, we control a thriving medieval maritime city under the benevolent patronage of the powerful Republic of Genoa.

This sun-drenched fishing community has a rich history of independence, trade and competition.

Every year, in September, in order to determine the fishing rights for the following season, the gozzi (typical fishing boats of Liguria) from the four districts of Burgu, Ciassa, Màina and Portellu organize a regatta along a route of 1,600 meters, in fractions of 400 meters between buoys.

Not content with this form of competition alone, merchant families from each neighborhood compete with each other to build tall red brick towers to display their wealth.

Their successful buildings give the town of Noli its distinctive appearance, although no merchant tower can hope to match the proud castle atop Monte Ursino, whose constant vigilance and defensive walls protect Noli from Saracen raids and assaults jealous neighboring towns!

Each game follows a series of rounds, during which players will secretly bid on four actions using coins. The player who makes the highest bid for each action wins a bonus or moves closer to victory by building a floor of their tower.

Between each auction session, players frantically roll dice in real time to simulate the famous Regata-dei-Reoni. The winner of the race gets to fish in the best places, drawing from the best deck of fish cards, while the other players must draw from worse decks containing fewer fish. These cards can also feature events such as "The Saracens Attack!" and “Storm!” which disrupt the game and push players back.

If a player manages to build 6 tower floors, or have the most tower floors at the end of the game, they win!

Hello everyone !

Welcome to a new opus of “JJV Offs”!

Little miracles every day!

I am one of those people who think that we can enjoy all the little things in everyday life.

In the world of board games, I would say that each moment that I share with you around a game, a discussion is unique.

All these good little moments are for me my little daily miracles, because I never get tired of sharing all these moments with you...

So finding the game that makes you laugh together and have a good time is great!

Allowing you to offer your loved ones players gems that they would not necessarily have discovered elsewhere is also one of my objectives.

And then share with you play times that are always friendly and bring us closer together, these are moments out of time...

I always look forward to coming and joining you at the various events, whether my events or the co-hosted events.

Because coming to your contact to make you play and have a good time, these are little playful miracles…

I love being the one who makes you play solo as much as sharing these moments of animation with colleagues from the gaming world!

 Because each animation, or each game or service sold, these are always instructive moments of discussion that help me progress on a daily basis.

I like to progress so that I can share even more unique moments with you, these are my little everyday miracles!

2 words game Master Islands

2 words game Master Islands

On 30/08/2024

Hello everyone!

Today we're going to talk about Master Islands!

Be the first to win the maximum number of islands to become the Master Islands, 2 to 4 players for 20 minutes from 8 years old!

In Master Islands, we are corsairs who must seize as many islands as possible to become the master of the islands!

We shuffle the island cards then distribute 3 to each player and place the rest face down in a draw pile in the center of the table.

We place a first card from the draw pile face up on the table and each player chooses a color and places their two galleons on the island card face up.

A game turn is done in 3 phases. We start with the discovery phase.

We can place an island card so that it is adjacent to a card where we already have a galleon of our color (but not diagonally).

You can then move one of your galleons from a single card adjacent to the card where it is located vertically or horizontally.

If the island card placed by the player is of the same color as one of the cards where he already has a galleon, the player can put down another island card.

If this is not the case, it switches to the conquest face.

If the player has made a vertical, horizontal or diagonal alignment of cards whose sum is equal to 10, he can recover them if they do not include any galleon tokens, regardless of whether they follow each other or not.

If he cannot recover an alignment, the player moves to the resupply phase.

The player draws the number of cards he needs to fill his hand with 3 cards.

The game ends when there are no more cards in the draw pile or on the table. We then count the points already acquired by each player's 10-point island alignments.

The player with the most points at the end of the game wins.

If there is a tie, the player whose island sum is higher between the two tied players wins.

Play Master Islands in cooperative mode with a victory from 12 islands recovered or in more intense competitive mode with privateer mode where one player plays against all the others.

Hello everyone !

The Youth Olympic Games!

Starting in 2010, the Olympic Games host the Youth Olympic Games (YOG), where athletes are between 14 and 18 years old.

The YOG was created by Jacques Rogge, President of the IOC, in 2001.

The decision is approved during the 119th IOC Congress.

The 2010 Summer Youth Olympic Games were held in Singapore and the 2012 Winter Youth Olympic Games were held in Innsbruck, Austria.

These Games last less than the traditional Olympic Games.

Summer ones last twelve days and winter ones, nine days.

3,500 athletes and 875 officials will participate in the 2010 Summer Olympics, and 970 athletes and 580 officials in the Winter Olympics.

The sports on the program coincide with those of the traditional Olympic Games, however the number of disciplines and events is reduced.

Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !

Welcome to a new opus of “JJV Offs”!

My superpower: making you smile!

During playtime, one of the children I look after told me after experiencing a difficult moment that I was the “Wonder Woman of Smiles”.

I found it super cute and then I asked him why and he told me “because even when I’m sad, you make me smile every time, so you’re the Wonder Woman of smiles”.

I already don't understand why and how you can hurt people and have a clear conscience, but then hurting children really annoys me.

I didn't have many funny moments growing up and this is my way of showing them that we can get through it despite everything life throws at us...

I am now happy that my personal experience can help me understand these children more than anyone else and help them to smile again for a moment...

Because I know what a smile costs when life is not easy from childhood, I love seeing their little faces smile and hearing them burst out laughing...

I love these moments suspended in time where they can escape their daily lives for a moment and enjoy being children like any other...

Even in entertainment in general and in the store, you tell me that I often have a smile.

I have a smile because I haven't always had it and because sharing my passion for board games with you is above all sharing good moments of sharing and laughter.

Sharing my passion with you to bring you closer to each other through games is just invaluable to me!

So if I can bring a smile to your face and make you laugh, young and old, I will continue to do it every day.

I also intend to stay for these children and for you the “Wonder Woman of smiles”. It’s my superpower that I hope I never lose so I can share it with you. ;)

Good day and good game ;)

On 23/08/2024

Hello everyone!

Today we're going to talk about Ninja Camp!

Who will be the fastest and most cunning of the students? Only the best will be able to become the disciple of Sensei Saru, 2 to 4 players for 30 minutes from 8 years old!

In Ninja camp, we will try to achieve the best score by collecting Technique cards.

Each player is given two Starting Technique cards and

four ninjas of the same color, then the ninja clan cards which they place in front of them face up.

We then mix the techinque, trap and wall cards together randomly to form a training ground:

 -For 2 players, a field of 8*6 cards.

-For 3 or 4 players, a field of 8*7 cards.

Then each player will successively place one of their ninjas on a technical card on the grid until each player has their 3 ninjas placed on all different technical cards.

The active player chooses one of the following three actions:

- Play a Technique card from your hand, then place it in your discard pile.

- Activate the power of your Ninja Clan, then turn over your card (can only be used once in the game).

-       To skip the turn. If a player cannot play Technique cards or use their Ninja Clan's power, they must pass.

Unless indicated on the card, a player cannot move diagonally; through, over or end your move on an empty space, a wall or another ninja.

He cannot move on the same card twice during the same turn or return to his starting square.

The player collects the Technique card or Trap card his ninja was on at the start of his move and adds it to his hand. This step creates empty spaces in the training ground as the game progresses.

When all players have passed, the game is over.

 Players collect the Technique cards occupied by their ninjas on the training ground and place them in their discard pile.

Each player adds up the scores of the Technique cards in their hand and their discard pile.

The player with the highest score is declared the winner and earns the coveted spot as Sensei Saru's disciple!

In the event of a tie, the player who played last wins.

Good day and good game ;)

The Paralympic Games!

In 1948, Sir Ludwig Guttman, determined to promote the rehabilitation of World War II soldiers, organized a sports competition between different hospitals at the same time as the 1948 Summer Olympics in London.

This competition, then known as the Stoke Mandeville Games, became annual.

For the next twelve years, Guttman and others continued to use sport as a healing therapy.

 At the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome, Guttman brought together 400 athletes to compete in the "Parallel Olympics" and became the first Paralympics.

The Paralympics have been held every Olympic year since then, and have been held in the same city as the Olympics since the 1988 Seoul Games.

Hello everyone !

Welcome to a new opus of “JJV Offs”!

I will always be inspired to play the game!

We Play the Game in Vaison and elsewhere!

Here, in the surrounding area and elsewhere, I am very happy to be able to offer you playtime where we share smiles, unique moments, laughter in an always friendly atmosphere!

The most important thing for me is to offer you playtime that suits you and where we enjoy a moment of sharing moments as unique as you...

I am still as motivated as at the start of the activities to always offer you new things to try and your enthusiasm motivates me even more.

I try to do everything I can to adapt as much as possible to your wishes of the moment, I even learned some basic Italian to go and co-host there…

There’s no stopping me when it comes to playing the game!

Especially when you co-host with crazy hosts who are always caring and friendly. Grazie mille Macandcheesy ;)

We are lucky in the gaming world to have the majority of players who are always motivated even if sometimes a little undisciplined :p

As they say “he who tries nothing, achieves nothing”, so if we can try to slip in a point and the animators don’t see anything it goes well… Isn’t that right Aless’gioc ^^ Grazie mille ;)

And then sometimes it's me who forgets to count my points or does one thing too much when I realize it, but René, Yves, Yvette or Anne keep an eye on things. :p  I just have to behave ;)

And then by meeting you in activities, I am also very happy to discover lots of interesting topics around games.

Thanks to my Sereno players for mutually sharing our knowledge and chatting during game times... :)

Grazie mille Anna, Maria, Alless’gioc, Machandcheesy, Dolores, Gulia e tutti gli giocattori di questa equipa fantastica ;)

2 words game Space Bowls

2 words game Space Bowls

On 16/08/2024

Hello everyone!

Today we're going to talk about Space Bowls!

Who can best place their marble goals in space, from 2 to 8 players for 30 minutes from 8 years old!

In Space Bowls, we will try to place our balls in optimal ways to align our planets according to our objectives.

Space Bowl is a competitive, simultaneous, turn-free game.

As quickly as possible, players must identify a habitable constellation somewhere in the galaxy using a diagram based on the position of the surrounding planets, transmitted by the on-board computer.

Those who succeed are rewarded with victory points.The game is divided into a series of rounds.

The Captain takes the Destination disk as well as the marbles corresponding to the planets displayed on the Constellation card visible at the top of the Infinity & Beyond pile.

Then it launches all these elements into the On-board computer box.

The Destination disc indicates the valid Constellation card where the spaceship should go during this round.

As soon as the throw has taken place in the On-board computer box, all players immediately start looking for a valid destination among the Constellation cards, that is to say meeting the criteria defined by the on-board computer.

When a player thinks they have found a valid Constellation card, they shout “Go!” » and raises the finger (pointing towards the sky) then begins a ten-second countdown loudly (“10, 9, 8…”) during which the other players can announce “Following!” » if they also think they have found a valid Constellation card.

If a player thinks that there is no destination matching the configuration required by the On-board Computer box – even using the Joker token – he announces “We are all going to die!” »: he then turns the large Crew token in front of him with the red Button side visible, and begins a ten-second countdown (“10, 9, 8…”).

Each player counts the points earned by the destination he has proposed as follows, and moves his Crew token as many spaces on the score track.

The game ends in two cases:either when at least one player has reached the last squarethe score track (we end the current round),either when the stack of Infinity & Beyond cardsis exhausted (after 10 rounds).

The player with the most points at the end of the game wins.

Hello everyone !

Games from Roman times to the 18th century!

Following the Roman invasion, the Games were opened to non-Greeks.

The prestige of the Games was such that several emperors took part.

On the advice of Bishop Ambrose of Milan, Emperor Theodosius I banned the Games in 393-394 because of their pagan character.

 This ban does not specifically target the Olympic Games but in general the Circus Games of which these are a particular event.

The Olympic Games underwent some timid attempts at renovation between the end of the 18th century, when the ruins of the Olympia sites were discovered, and the end of the 19th century.

Let us cite the Olympiad of the Republic which was held in Paris in 1796, 1797 and 1798.

Welcome to a new opus of “JJV Offs”!

When it comes to playing, we're never last!

I'm very happy to see that when it comes to playing, you are never last!

Play time resumed joyfully as soon as gatherings were authorized again and we were able to take advantage of this to get back to playing.

Young and old alike, this is the time when we get together around board games which are also very precious to me…

You are always very fond of discoveries and new games to try to have a good time together.

I'm happy to see residents become strategists and call me to order when I inadvertently forget to apply one of the rules of the game...or even fight mercilessly :)

I also like this little sneaky side that we can have around a game...Around a game, there are no friends, no loved ones, the game is the game... ;)

We're all on an equal footing, with the same rules and that's what's great because it gives a good framework for expressing your strategies during a game...

I love seeing you enjoy the games, your good mood, your less good moods when you lose, your laughter and smiles which inspire me to always do more for you and you always offer more new things.

I also love to tease you just as much as you love to tease me during playtime, with dirty tricks, jokes, always rich exchanges, etc…

And for the little ones to make them smile again and see them burst out laughing despite the events of life they are going through, that’s just my greatest reward…

So thank you for sharing with me the passion for board games and see you soon to play. ;)

Good day and good game ;)

2 words game Angry birds space

On 09/08/2024

Hello everyone!

Today we're going to talk about Angry Birds Space!

Who can knock down the pigs and score the most points, from 2 players for 15 minutes from 4 years old!

In Angry Birds Space, we will try to knock down the pigs and pieces of wood to win the most points on the game mat.

We install the play mat where an area is defined to place the pieces of wood and the pig on it.

The mat is marked with several play areas with points depending on where the pig and the pieces of wood fall.

We then move away from the mat a few meters to target the playing area with one of the two angry birds in the game.

We then aim for the pig, the pieces of wood or the point areas that interest us in three attempts.

If we do not reach 1000 points during a round with three shooting attempts, we note the player's points.

We then replace the elements so that the next player can also try to reach 1000 points in 3 shooting attempts.

You earn 100 points if the pig falls to the ground and 50 additional points for each piece of wood that falls on the carpet.

The game zones where the pigs or the ends of points fall earn the additional points indicated on the zone.

The first player to 1000 points wins the round and the player with the most points after several rounds wins the game.

You can increase the level of difficulty by moving a little further away from the playing area or with additional challenges such as aiming with the opposite hand from your usual hand or with your back turned, etc.

All you have to do is be imaginative and let your angry birds express themselves! It's up to you to play and have a good time!

Hello everyone !

A revival for modern games in the 20th century!

Originally, the Games were exclusively summer.

Figure skating and ice hockey made appearances on the Olympic program even before the creation of the Winter Games in 1924.

After the initial success of the events in Athens in 1896, the Olympics in Paris in 1900 and Saint Louis in 1904 were buried in the programs of the universal exhibitions.

These games saw women participating in the events for the first time, such as Charlotte Cooper, the first Olympic champion.

The 1906 Olympic Games in Athens, not subsequently recognized by the International Olympic Center, marked a renewed interest of the public and athletes, with very international participation.

JJV's Offs

JJV's Offs

On 04/08/2024

Hello everyone !

Welcome to a new opus of “JJV Offs”!

The last will be first !

As Mika Hakkinen says, “To be a good winner, you have to be a good loser.” »

When you are passionate about what you do, you fall much more often than you rise. What would be a shame would be not to get up after falling...

Because to be better than you were before, you have to know how to fall, lose, start again, fall again, lose, and always get back up to win small victories day after day.

The first were not always first, they progressed, tested, failed, tried again and finally got there.

After covid, I was unable to restart in-store events, but outdoor events resumed even better than before thanks to my determination.

If we start telling ourselves that we are going to lose or not succeed, we will only have a greater chance of losing if we think about trying and trying again until we manage to do something...

When I started some outdoor events, I didn't think I could do it because it was a whole new style of audience.

And then, I put an action plan in place with small concrete actions to carry out to achieve other, larger actions.

I even almost stopped certain activities for fear of not living up to the expectations we had from playtime...

And then if a goal scares us, it’s because we’ve set the bar high enough and we’re on the right track to get out of our comfort zone and develop our goals.

So I worked twice as hard on what was causing me difficulty in order to be able to meet the demands that were asked of me during these play times.

And today, I am very happy that I didn't give up and didn't give up, because I gained more experience and development from the store's playtime...

It’s often on the other side of your comfort zone that you make the best progress!

If your goals scare you, it’s because they take you out of your comfort zone, but you will see that if you do it, you will end up thanking yourself!

A defeat is a victory, because it teaches us much more about ourselves than a victory. ;)

Good day and good game ;)

2 words game Cortex challenge 3

2 words game Cortex challenge 3

On 02/08/2024

Hello everyone!

Today we are going to talk about Cortex!

Who can rebuild their brain the fastest by taking on the logic challenges, from 2 to 6 players for 15 minutes from 8 years old!

In Cortex be the first to find the solution to four different logic puzzles to rewire your brain and win the game!

Place the test cards in a pile in the center of the table, then turn the first face up.

We will then try to find the answer to the riddle as quickly as possible by putting our hand on the card as soon as we think we have found it.

We then give the answer by showing the card and once verified if the answer is correct, the player wins a card which he places in front of him.

Each player can only have 4 cards in front of him, he will have to discard any if he has more or exchange two identical cards (same back) for a piece of puzzle brain.

If he made a mistake, the card is discarded and a new challenge card is turned over to start a new challenge.

The challenges are made up of 8 different types of challenges:

- The orientation where we will leave from the starting point and find our way to arrive at the place indicated by the arrows.

- The color sequence where we start from the image surrounded by a red circle then we rely on the background color of the animal to find the next animal, then the next, etc.

- The intruder where you have to find the different shape among three shapes.

- The fusioform where we find which shapes made up the main form.

- Constellation where we find the constellation containing the most stars.

- Coordination where we must either with the left hand (blue symbol) or the right (red symbol) beat the sign surrounded by a red shifumi circle.

- Calculation where you must give the result of the calculation starting from a number in red.

- Olfactory challenge where you rub the card face down and try to find the smell hidden behind it. Only the player who won the last card completes this challenge.

The game ends as soon as a player has completed the four pieces of their brain puzzle.
