Board games are a fun way to gather everyone around the table to engage in some group escapism.

Refreshing and unlike anything we’ve played before, MicroMacro: Crime City is a cooperative game about solving crimes for up to four players, but it also works as a solo game. Plenty of space is needed to unfurl the city map and move freely around it with the magnifying glass hunting for suspects and clues.

There’s aelement to the hunt, but it’s combined with loose narratives that take you through each crime scene, unraveling the mystery step-by-step as you work together to track down the culprit. Discussing theories is a big part of the fun here, and cases take anywhere from 10 minutes to an hour to solve. While younger kids will enjoy it, the game is recommended for ages 12 and up because some cases deal with adult topics.

Do you get product placement fees for this? Because everything from parcheesi to scrabble to backgammon are pretty good board games, too, but not a brand attached to a specific profit-making corporation.

Exploding Kittens pictured...good game.

Elon Musk won't join Twitter's boardElon Musk has decided not to join Twitter's board, Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal tweeted late Sunday. Agrawal believes 'this is for the best.' Chad, he's gonna own a lot more of it. He didn't want to background check because some people might realize he did not create Tesla - he bought it. A board member is limited to something like 14% of stock. A private citizen is not, so as soon as the stock price falls again, he can acquire more if he wants to.
