This will be my first and last article about coronavirus.The fact that the infection rates are now rising again feels Kafkaesque.
Even though we have knowledge of a few keys to help us out of this situation, it’s still tough and sad and tough. Here are a few game suggestions that feel appropriate right now:
- A game of dice, but all faces are showing the number one
- Ludo, but without those four target fields
- Uno, but there are only Draw 4 cards
- Monopoly, but every card sends you to jail
- Settlers, but all the roads branch after each player’s turn
- Chess, but everyone has to spend at least 24 hours thinking about a move
Despite my slightly cynical attitude – look after yourselves!
There is only the number one on the dice
