Daughter & I had our regular school holiday lunch date at the Treehouse today, and had really excellent first play of The Quest for El Dorado.

So my teenage daughter (my usual gaming buddy) has a sleepover with 3 of her friends. They wake up this morning in her room with literally dozens of amazing games of all shapes and sizes (see BGG link below), so what do they decide to play?

I wasn't aware you could see everything listed online in advance. Suppose I should have been, really...
