Category: Initial impression

These are games that I have played once or twice and have formed an initial impression. These impressions are subject to change as I get more opportunities to play them. However, not all games will ever hit the table again and they will remain as initial impressions. For older games that still in my collection and are played regularly, I have switched their category to “Final Word”
