Welcome to Purple Pawn, covering games played around the world by billions of people every day.
At the 2014 Mensa Mind Games this past weekend in Austin, Texas, 250 judges played 56 different games over 44 hours to arrive at the following five Mensa Select winners:
Gravwell—A spaceship racing game from Cryptozoic with a unique gravity-based approach to movement.
Qwixx—A fast-play, push-your-luck, dice-rolling game from Gamewright.
Pyramix—Which, also from Gamewright, is played by drawing cubes from a three-dimensional, pyramid stack.
The Duke—Catalyst Game Lab’s Chess-like title where the tile-pieces flip between two patterns of movement and capture with each turn.
Euphoria—A dystopian worker-placement game, from Stonemaier Games, in which a player’s dice-workers may desert.
