Twoplayer games don’t get much coverage in these pages. That’s not because I have any bias against them per se. I write most of the reviews for TGR and rarely have the opportunity to play twoplayer games, consequently they tend to get short shrift around these parts. This summer my college buddy Dave moved in for a year or so, and suddenly there are two gamers in the house. Astoundingly, with all the games at our disposal we still spend about 95 of our time playing cribbage for ten cents a point, which may explain how it manages to hold our interest. Much of the remaining five percent has been devoted to Lost Cities, a simple yet addictive card game from Reiner Knizia.
