Catharsis



Back to the White Swan for some boardgaming goodness, albeit mostly card or dice based; boards seem rather out of fashion in boardgames at the moment.  Games played were Tsuro, King of Tokyo, Zombie Fluxx and Love Letter. We had five in attendance, which is too few to split up and too many for many games; Love Letter being a wind down game after one person had left. Despite that it was all very pleasant, except perhaps for Zombie Fluxx. I only really took it because it was Halloween last week and we played it because a couple of people were eating and logistically it worked. The problem with all the Fluxx games is that the length of time they take can be somewhat arbitrary. This one definitely outstayed its welcome.




On a completely unrelated note, it’s been a little while since I featured any Mexican art and to rectify that I offer you ‘Catharsis’ by José Clement Orozco, a work to be found in the Palacio de Bellas Artes in Mexico City.
