We also have been playing King of Tokyo with the Panda Kai expansion. I like playing The King (Kong), although Panda Kai is fun too. I don't seem to get the mini-evolutions much and they who taught me how to play taught me it was either-or when you got three hearts, but it's really both (healing plus evolution). A big difference.

And Kyle got Eryn Takenoko for her birthday. A great game that's a lot like Catan, but with a hungry panda, a frustrated farmer, and an emperor. This one deserves an expansion, but I'm not sure what. It seems like it would be simple to add one more character with a deck of goal cards. Princess? Samurai? Philosopher - he could add rocks that limit bamboo growth, all Tai Hu style. Or perhaps a governmental worker who taxed the bamboo. A sage? Perhaps that's pretty much a philosopher. The goal could be to get # sages to a particular color of bamboo grove. That would be very Japanese.

Another picture of Takenoko, well into the game.
