I was on vacation with my partner last week and we packed the card game version of Café International

The board game version is from 1989 and I was extremely nostalgic about the game, as it was one that I used to play a lot when I visited my grandparents back when I was a young kid.

After playing two round of it we realized: This is and OLD game, and it shows. Even the card game version from 2001 shows it's age in both the ridiculous artwork as well as the game mechanics like drawing/discarding cards for minutes without any change to the board state.

We chose to leave it in the hotel lobby. Maybe it will bring joy to someone there, it brought no joy to us other than a short flash of nostalgia, so we decided we'll never play it again.
