Are you the type to hide your battleships around the edges, or do you plonk them audaciously in the centre? Does your vocabulary include a lot of Z-words, or are you dumping those tiles for a 3:1 switch? And do you like pouring your resources into pursuing the Longest Road, or do you chance your luck on Development Cards?
No matter what your board game personality, Sjors Brouwer and his daughter Sanne Appleby have something in their stash that will get your dice rolling.
Sjors and Sanne are bringing their board-game enthusiasm to the Motueka Library-Te Noninga Kumu, with free sessions on Fridays from 3.30pm onwards.
The pair are board-game afficionados, with both qualifying for the New Zealand National Catan Championship in Wellington earlier this year.
Sjors says that the boardgame bug is now deeply imbedded, and the family would like to share this with more Motueka players.
Their inventory includes several versions of Catan, Chess, Scrabble, Bananagrams, Dragon Realm, Boggle, Battleship, Chinese Checkers, Cluedo, Risk, Stratego, Betrayal at House on the Hill, Rummikub, Game of Life, Monopoly, Connect Four and Carcassonne, as well as all the classics.
People are also welcome to bring their own. All ages are welcome, although they ask that children under the age of 10 have a supervising adult.
The first board game session is this Friday, 23 August, at 3.30pm.
