Ho ho ho! One Gamer (turned Pirate) has been using his Lego armada to enhance the experience of Days of Wonder's Pirate's Cove. In his blog post he logs the details to his game adaption (apparently the game has become a favorite), and Lego's have allowed him to all but eliminate chance from pirate ship skirmishes.
Har har! What ingenuity!
Still, Legos and games have not been strange shipmates.
Aye, when I was a lad we used to make games out of our Lego stash. Legos make great game components! They are naturally delimited and come in all shapes, sizes, colors and styles. Perfect.
Lego the company has picked-up on this as well. Refer to an earlier post at Pinebars about Lego's advances into the gaming sphere.
Oh, and don't forget the popular Lego Star Wars series for video game systems.
See below an excellent rendition of Settlers of Catan in Lego.
I eagerly await the day when an astutely crafted Eurogame design by Friedmann Friese or Klaus Teuber is released exclusively by Lego.
And as you design your own games, consider using Lego's to help you solve your component problems.
In the meantime, answer me this, what Euro game would you like to see designed in Lego?
