Game played: Robinson Crusoe: Adventures on the Cursed Island ( Z-Man Games ) BGG Id: 121921

This week, there were seven of us and Mark K and I had arranged to try another of Robinson Crusoe's Adventures on the Cursed Island. Nicky and Andrew, neither of whom had played before, joined us to try and outrun Volcano Island. Well things started off really badly with Andrew managing to take multiple wounds on the first round and plunge our morale to danger levels. From then on, we were fighting a losing battle against morale, wasting actions to push it towards neutral only for something to push it back down again. We were also struggling to get enough food for all of us and our health soon became perilously low. As the carpenter, you would expect me to pretty good at building stuff but I lost count at the number of times I rolled determination tokens in place of successes. Eventually, one of us was bound to take a final wound and so it proved to be with me being the one to seal our doom on round 5. We didn't even manage to build the Jolly Boat. Despite this, Mark and I both enjoyed it although Andrew and Nicky probably felt a bit frustrated as we were always fighting a losing battle.
